Produkující

Produkující is the present active participle of the Czech verb producent "produkovat," meaning to produce. Used as an adjective, it denotes an entity that is performing the act of producing, roughly translating to “producing” or “producer” in context. It often appears in describing factories, companies, or processes that are actively generating goods or output.

Formation and morphology: The participle is formed from the verb stem produko- by adding the suffix -jící, yielding produkující. Like other Czech participles, it agrees with the noun it modifies in gender, number, and case, functioning in a similar way to an adjective. In singular it can appear identical across masculine, feminine, and neuter forms, while plural and case forms follow standard adjective declension patterns.

Usage: Produkující is common in formal or technical text, including industry reports, business descriptions, and academic writing. It is typically used attributively (before the noun) or in adjectival phrases such as "firma produkující elektroniku" (a company producing electronics). In predicative constructions, speakers often prefer a relative clause (e.g., "firma, která produkuje") rather than a standalone predicative form.

Relation to related terms: The noun for a person or organization engaged in production is "producent." The participle "produkující" should not be confused with these nominal forms; it is a verbal adjective describing ongoing production rather than a fixed actor like a producer.

Examples: "Výrobce, produkující díly pro automobily, investuje do nové linky." "Společnost zaměřující se na produkující průmysl se rozrůstá."
