Vyvolaný

Vyvolaný is a Czech past participle and adjectival form derived from the verb vyvolat, meaning to evoke, to summon, or to cause to appear. It denotes that a effect, event, or state has been brought about by a before-mentioned action or agent. The sense can range from summoning a spirit in a séance to triggering a reaction, memory, or result in various contexts.

The verb vyvolat is used in several closely related meanings: to evoke or call forth (a response, emotion, or memory), to summon (a person or spirit), and to trigger (an event or process). In paranormal contexts, vyvolaný often appears in expressions like vyvolaný duch or vyvolané bytosti, referring to spirits that have been summoned. In everyday language, it can describe something caused by a preceding cause, for example vyvolaný efekt, vyvolaná reakce or vyvolaná vzpomínka.

Grammatically, vyvolaný functions as a past passive participle and can be used as an attributive or predicative adjective. It agrees with the noun in gender and number: vyvolaný (masc. singular), vyvolaná (fem. singular), vyvolané (neut. singular); vyvolaní (masc. personal plural), vyvolané (others in plural). It is commonly used with forms of být in perfect or past tenses, e.g., byl vyvolaný, byla vyvolaná, bylo vyvolané, byli vyvolaní.

Related terms include vyvolat (to evoke/summon), vyvolávač (evoker), and vyvolání (evocation/summoning). The word is standard in literary and technical Czech, and its meaning is determined by context, especially the nature of the cause and the resulting effect.
