Stylistického

Stylistického is the genitive singular form of the Czech adjective stylistický, meaning “stylistic” or “pertaining to style.” It is used to express a relationship to style in contexts such as linguistics, literary studies, and editing. The base noun is styl, from which the field term stylistika (stylistics) is formed; stylistika denotes the study of language style, tone, and expressive choices.

In practice, stylistického appears in phrases that describe features or evaluations related to style. Examples include stylistického hodnocení textu (the stylistic evaluation of a text), stylistického zpracování (stylistic treatment or processing), or stylistického prostředky (stylistic devices). The word is part of a broader set of adjectives that decline for gender, number, and case; thus, masculine inanimate or neuter nouns in the genitive singular typically take stylistického, while feminine forms differ (stylistické in certain genitive contexts).

Stylistika as a discipline analyzes how language choices—such as word choice, syntax, diction, tone, and rhetorical devices—affect meaning, readership, and genre. The term stylistického thus frequently appears in scholarly, editorial, and critical writing to specify that discussion concerns style rather than content alone, or to specify a particular stylistic characteristic of a text.

In summary, stylistického is the genitive form of a common Czech adjective used to denote stylistic relations, commonly encountered in discussions of language style, literary analysis, and textual editing.
