definitívní

Definitívní is an adjective used in Czech and Slovak to describe something final, conclusive or decisive. It denotes that a decision, result or state is meant to be permanent or not subject to further change or dispute.

Etymology and formation: the word ultimately derives from Latin definitivus via European languages, and entered Czech through standard lexical borrowing. It follows regular adjective usage in Slavic grammar and agrees in gender, number and case with the noun it modifies.

Usage: definitívní appears in legal, administrative and everyday contexts to indicate final rulings, definitive evidence, permanent solutions or irreversible outcomes. Examples include definitívní rozhodnutí (final decision), definitívní důkaz (conclusive evidence) and definitívní konec (definitive end).

Synonyms and register: common synonyms are konečný, závěrečný or definitivní (variant spelling). The term is neutral to slightly formal; in casual speech speakers often prefer konečný or finální.

Translations: the typical English equivalents are definitive, final, conclusive or irrevocable, depending on context. Related concepts include definitivita (definitiveness) and definitivně (definitively), the corresponding noun and adverb.
