Stanovených

Stanovených is a Czech language form, specifically the genitive plural of the adjective stanovený, which means established, determined, or set. It is used in sentences where the noun it modifies is in the genitive plural, a common construction in formal or official prose, including legal, administrative, and regulatory texts.

Etymology and grammatical role: The word derives from the verb stanovit, meaning to determine or establish. The participle/stative adjective stanovený yields various declined forms, with stanovených representing genitive plural. Thus it typically accompanies nouns in genitive plural, for example stanovených pravidel (established rules), stanovených lhůt (set deadlines), or stanovených množsteví (determined quantities).

Usage and nuance: Stanovených conveys that what is described has been officially established, fixed, or prescribed by law, regulation, or authority. It carries a formal, impersonal tone and is less common in everyday speech. It often appears in contexts involving quantities, periods, or criteria that have been determined by an obligation or rule, such as deadlines, quotas, items, or conditions.

Related forms and contrasts: Other declined forms include stanovený (masculine singular nominative), stanovená (feminine singular nominative), and stanovené (neuter singular nominative). These agree with their respective nouns in gender and number. The meaning remains “established” or “set,” but the form changes to reflect grammatical case and quantity.
