Sedmnáctý

Sedmnáctý is a Czech word meaning "seventeenth". It is the ordinal number corresponding to the cardinal number seventeen. In Czech, ordinal numbers change their endings based on grammatical gender, number, and case. Therefore, "sedmnáctý" is the masculine singular nominative form. Its feminine singular nominative form is "sedmnáctá", and its neuter singular nominative form is "sedmnácté". The plural forms also vary accordingly.

The word is commonly used in various contexts, such as referring to dates, positions in a sequence, or rankings. For example, "sedmnáctý květen" means "May seventeenth". Similarly, "sedmnáctý v pořadí" translates to "seventeenth in line" or "seventeenth in order". The number seventeen itself, "sedmnáct", holds no particular widespread cultural or historical significance in Czech society that is distinct from other numbers, beyond its numerical value. Its usage is primarily functional and linguistic.
