Uvíznou

Uvíznou is a Czech verb meaning "to get stuck," "to be trapped," or "to become stranded." It is a common verb used in everyday language and can refer to physical entrapment as well as more abstract situations. For example, one might say "Auto uvízlo v blátě" which translates to "The car got stuck in the mud." Similarly, "Cestující uvízli na letišti kvůli zpoždění letu" means "The passengers were stranded at the airport due to a flight delay."

The verb uvíznou belongs to the perfective aspect in Czech, indicating a completed action. Its imperfective counterpart is uvíznout (which is the infinitive form of the verb). The past tense conjugation for the masculine singular would be "uvízl," for feminine singular "uvízla," and for plural "uvízli." The future tense is formed using the auxiliary verb "být" (to be) combined with the past participle, for instance, "budu uvízlý" (I will be stuck).

Beyond literal meanings, uvíznou can also describe a state of being stuck in a difficult situation or a deadlock. For example, "Vyjednávání uvízla na mrtvém bodě" translates to "The negotiations have reached a deadlock." The verb's versatility makes it a fundamental part of the Czech vocabulary.
