Syntakticky

Syntakticky is a Czech and Slovak adverb meaning "in a syntactic manner" or "syntactically". It is derived from the adjective syntaktický, which in turn originates from the international term syntax, ultimately from Greek syntaxis ("arrangement" or "ordering"). The word is used to describe properties or relations that pertain to syntax — the arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences in a language.

In grammar and linguistics, syntakticky qualifies statements about sentence structure, agreement, word order, constituency, and dependency relations. Typical uses include assessments such as syntakticky správné ("syntactically correct") or syntakticky nejasné ("syntactically ambiguous"). As an adverb, it modifies verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs (for example, "formulováno syntakticky" — "formulated syntactically").

Syntakticky appears in both descriptive and prescriptive contexts: linguists use it to describe observed structural patterns, while language instruction and normative grammar refer to syntakticky appropriate constructions. In computational linguistics and natural language processing the concept under this term relates to parsing, syntax trees, and algorithmic analysis of sentence structure.

Comparable adverbs exist in many languages (English: syntactically; German: syntaktisch), reflecting shared technical vocabulary in linguistic disciplines. The term is primarily technical and used in academic, educational, and analytic discourse about language structure.
