Správnom

Správnom is the locative singular form of the Slovak adjective správny, which means proper or correct. In Slovak, adjectives inflect for gender, number, and case, and the locative case is used after prepositions such as v (in), na (on), or o (about). Therefore, správnom appears in phrases like v správnom čase (in the proper time), na správnom mieste (at the right place), or vo správnom svetle (in the proper light).

Usage notes:

- sprá vný is the base form, and správnym is the instrumental singular form, used in phrases to describe the manner of an action (in the correct way).

- Správnom is not a standalone noun; it is an inflected adjective form functioning as part of a noun phrase.

- The feminine locative form of the same adjective is správnej, as in v správnej knihe (in the correct book). The plural forms follow their own declension patterns.

Examples:

- V správnom čase je dôležité konať. (In the proper time it is important to act.)

- Na správnom mieste sa často riešia problémy. (At the right place, problems are often addressed.)

- Vo správnom svetle sa veci javia jasnejšie. (In the proper light, things appear clearer.)

Summary:

Správnom is a grammatical form used to express “in the proper/correct way/place/time” in Slovak, reflecting the role of the locative case after common prepositions. It highlights how Slovak adjectives adapt to case and gender within a noun phrase.
