Roztavený

Roztavený is a Czech adjective and past participle derived from the verb roztavit, meaning melted or liquefied. It is used to describe something that has undergone the process of melting, most commonly materials such as metal, wax, or glass, but it can also be used metaphorically to suggest transformation, softness, or emotional intensity.

In grammar, roztavený forms part of the standard Czech adjective system and agrees with the noun it modifies in gender and number. The masculine singular form is roztavený, with roztavená for feminine singular and roztavené for neuter singular. Like other past participles used adjectivally, the word can describe physical state or serve a figurative purpose.

Common usages include phrases such as roztavený kov (melted metal) or roztavený vosk (melted wax). The term can convey that something has been subjected to heat and transformation, sometimes implying a state of dissolution or openness to change in a broader, figurative sense.

See also roztavit, the verb from which the adjective is derived, and related terms describing heating, melting, or liquefaction processes. While primarily a descriptive term in technical or literary contexts, roztavený appears in everyday Czech when discussing materials that have lost their solid form due to heat or transformation.
