Roztídné

Roztídné is a Czech adjective with only limited attestation, sometimes appearing in technical or dialectal texts. It describes a quality, condition, or process that involves the separation or differentiation of components within a system. The term is not part of standard contemporary Czech vocabulary and does not appear in the most widely used dictionaries.

Etymology: The form appears to derive from the verb roztřídit “to sort, to separate” plus a derivational suffix -né, yielding a sense akin to “pertaining to separation.” Given the scarcity of secure attestations, exact etymology is not established in mainstream lexicography.

Meaning and usage: In the contexts where it is encountered, roztídné tends to be used to characterize phenomena, materials, or classifications resulting from or describing separation processes. This could include chemical mixtures that have been separated, geological deposits showing segregation, or data sets that have been sorted according to criteria. The word functions as a descriptive modifier rather than a technical term with a fixed definition.

Attestation and notes: Because roztídné is not a standard entry, its occurrence is irregular and largely confined to specialized texts. It may be replaced by more common forms such as roztříděný or roztřídění, depending on the context. Further evidence from corpora or dictionaries would help clarify its precise range of meaning.
