Tlaení

Tlaení is a rarely used noun that appears to be a nonstandard or variant form derived from the Czech verb tlačit, meaning to push. In standard Czech, the corresponding and widely accepted noun is tlačení, which denotes the act of pushing or pressing, and can also describe a situation in which people push against one another, such as crowding or jostling.

Because tlaení is not recognized as a separate standard term in major Czech dictionaries, its meanings, when encountered, are typically understood as variants of tlačení rather than as an independent concept. The usage context usually makes clear whether the reference is to a physical act of pushing, a pressing action in a mechanical or manufacturing sense, or a social situation where crowding and jostling occur.

In practical writing and formal contexts, it is advisable to use tlačení to avoid confusion. If tlaení is encountered in historical texts, dialectal material, or informal communication, readers should rely on surrounding context to interpret whether the intended meaning aligns with pushing, pressing, or crowding. In most modern uses, tlačení remains the standard term for the relevant concepts of pushing actions and crowding.
