Smluvním

Smluvním is the instrumental singular form of the Czech adjective smluvní, meaning contractual or related to a contract. It is used to describe things that originate from or are governed by an agreement. Common contexts include contractual relationships, obligations, terms, and parties.

Smluvní is widely used in legal, business, and administrative language. The instrumental form smluvním appears before masculine nouns in the instrumental case, as in smluvním partnerem (a contractual partner). Frequent collocations include smluvní strany (contracting parties), smluvní podmínky (contract terms), smluvní závazky (contractual obligations), smluvní vztah (contractual relationship), and smluvní pokuta (contractual penalty).

The term derives from smlouva, the noun meaning contract or agreement, with the adjectival suffix -ní. It is standard Czech and commonly encountered in contracts, legislation, and official documents. A related noun is smluvník, referring to a person who signs or is bound by a contract, and a related concept is dohoda, which is another term for an agreement, used in somewhat different linguistic contexts.

Example: Smluvní strany se dohodly na podmínkách. Smluvní vztah je závazek vyplývající z dohody mezi stranami.
