Spoléhalo

Spoléhalo is a Czech word that translates to "relied" or "counted on" in English. It is the past tense, neuter singular form of the verb "spoléhat" (to rely, to count on). This verb describes the act of placing trust or confidence in someone or something, expecting them to perform a certain action or fulfill a need.

In common usage, spoléhalo would be used in a sentence describing a situation where something or someone was dependent on another. For example, "Dítě spoléhalo na svou matku" translates to "The child relied on its mother." Similarly, "Na pomoc se spoléhalo" means "Help was counted on." The neuter singular form often refers to abstract concepts or situations rather than specific individuals. The context in which spoléhalo is used will determine the precise nuance of reliance or dependence being conveyed. It signifies a past state of trust and expectation.
