ablativní

Ablativní is a term used in linguistics to describe a specific case or grammatical function in certain languages, particularly in Slavic languages such as Czech, Polish, and Russian. The ablative case is one of the seven cases in the Slavic declension system, which is used to indicate various relationships between nouns and other words in a sentence.

In Czech, for example, the ablative case is used to express movement away from a place or source, or to indicate the means or instrument by which an action is performed. It is often translated into English using prepositions such as "from," "by," or "with." For instance, the Czech word "od" (from) is used to indicate the ablative case.

The ablative case is formed by adding specific endings to the stem of a noun, depending on its gender, number, and case. In Czech, the ablative endings for masculine nouns are "-em," "-mi," and "-mi," for feminine nouns are "-ou," "-mi," and "-mi," and for neuter nouns are "-em," "-mi," and "-mi."

The ablative case is an important aspect of Slavic grammar, as it allows speakers to convey complex relationships between nouns and other words in a sentence. However, it is not as commonly used in modern Czech as it was in older forms of the language, and its usage has been largely replaced by prepositions in contemporary Czech. Nevertheless, the ablative case remains an important part of the language's grammatical system and is studied by linguists and language learners alike.
