Schvalují

Schvalují is the present tense form of the Czech verb schvalovat, meaning they approve or authorize. It is used when a plural subject—such as a government body, council, committee, or organization—formally approves a proposal, law, budget, or measure. In official contexts, bodies often schvalují návrhy, rozpočty nebo předpisy.

Grammatically, schvalovat is imperfective, and schvalují is the 3rd person plural present. Other present-tense forms include schvaluji (1st person singular), schvaluješ (2nd person singular), schvaluje (3rd person singular), schvalujeme (1st person plural), and schvalujete (2nd person plural). The verb commonly combines with nouns in the accusative: schvalují návrhy, schvalují rozpočty.

The perfective counterpart is schválit, which denotes a completed act. Its simple future form is schválí (they will approve). In practice, schválit is used when emphasizing that the approval will or has been completed, whereas schvalovat often describes the ongoing or repeated process of approval.

Common usage and nuance include synonyms such as odsouhlasit, přijmout, or odhlasovat, each carrying slight shades of meaning. Schvalovat emphasizes official authorization, odsouhlasit stresses formal agreement, and odhlasovat highlights a decision reached by voting.
