Právnymi

Právnymi is the instrumental plural form of the adjective právný in Czech and Slovak, meaning “legal” or “lawful.” It is used to modify nouns in the instrumental case, for example after the preposition s (with) or in certain legal formulations.

Etymology and form: The word derives from právo (law) and the related adjective právny (Slovak) / právný (Czech). In both languages, adjectives decline for gender, number, and case, and the instrumental plural ending is typically -nými (or the equivalent -nými/-nými in standard orthography). The form právnymi is the instrumental plural used with masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns in the plural.

Usage: Právnymi appears mainly in formal, legal, or administrative contexts. It is common in phrases describing actions taken by or involving legal entities, statutes, or regulations. Examples include s právnymi zástupcami (with legal representatives) or v súlade s právnymi predpismi (in accordance with legal regulations) in Slovak, and s právními zástupci (with legal representatives) or v souladu s právními předpisy in Czech.

Notes: While the meaning centers on legality, the exact nuance can vary with context—ranging from strictly lawful to generally permissible under statute. The word often appears in contracts, court documents, and official explanations.
