derivované

Derivovaná is a feminine singular adjective form in Czech that means derived or produced by derivation or transformation. It is used to describe nouns that indicate something resulting from a derivational process, rather than something innate or original.

In linguistic and grammatical contexts, derivovaná describes derived forms of words. The corresponding masculine and neuter forms are derivovaný and derivované, respectively. An example is the derivovaná forma slova, such as derivovaná forma slova učitel turning into učitelka in gendered form. This usage helps distinguish between the base word and the result of a derivational process such as affixation or compounding.

In scientific and technical writing, the term also appears to label results of formal derivations or transformations. For instance, one may speak of derivovaná data obtained from a preprocessing step, or of a derivovaná funkce obtained by differentiating a base function in calculus. The label emphasizes that the item is not original in its current state but a product of derivation.

Etymology and background: derivovaná derives from the Czech verb derivovat, meaning to derive. The form reflects standard Czech gender agreement for adjectives: masculine derivovaný, feminine derivovaná, neuter derivované. The concept is widely used across linguistics, grammar, and technical writing to denote something that has been formed or obtained through a derivational process, distinguishing it from its source material.
