Pravilna

Pravilna is a feminine singular adjective form meaning “correct,” “proper,” or “regular” in several Slavic languages, most notably Slovenian. It is formed from a root meaning right or true and serves as the feminine counterpart of related gender forms of the same adjective. As a grammatical inflection, pravilna agrees with feminine nouns in number and case.

In Slovenian, pravilna is used to describe feminine nouns in contexts of accuracy or propriety. For example, pravilna odločitev can mean “the correct decision,” and pravilna uporaba can mean “the proper use.” The form illustrates how adjectives in Slovenian reflect gender in speech and writing.

Across other South Slavic languages that share cognate roots, a similar feminine form appears, though exact spelling and usage can differ between languages such as Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian. The core idea remains the same: the word expresses correctness or propriety when modifying a feminine noun.

Pravilna is not a standalone noun or a proper noun; it is a grammatical inflection used within phrases and sentences to convey accuracy, appropriateness, or regularity in reference to a feminine noun.
