Ukrytých

Ukrytých is a Czech inflected form of the adjective ukrytý, which comes from the verb ukrýt meaning to hide or conceal. The base adjective ukrytý denotes something that is hidden or concealed. Ukrytých is the plural form used with nouns to describe multiple hidden items and is commonly encountered in everyday and literary Czech when referring to more than one hidden thing.

In usage, ukrytý functions as a past participle used attributively as an adjective. It agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case, so ukrytých appears when the described noun is plural. Examples include ukrytých věcí (hidden things), ukrytých kamer (hidden cameras), and ukrytých informací (hidden information). The form is neutral and versatile, suitable for descriptive prose as well as reporting.

The term is closely related to other forms built from the same verb, such as ukrytí, which is a noun meaning concealment or hiding, and ukrytý, the masculine singular form. The general sense remains the same across these forms: something that is not visible because it is kept out of sight or deliberately concealed. Ukrytých exemplifies how Czech uses past participles as adjectival descriptors, with plural endings that reflect the quantity of the described nouns.
