ekspresný

Ekspresný is a Slovak adjective meaning "express" or "rapid." It is commonly used to describe services or goods that are delivered or provided quickly, often for an additional fee. This can include express mail services, express train routes, or express checkout options in shops. The term implies a significant acceleration of a standard process.

In the context of transportation, "ekspresný" often denotes a train or bus service that makes fewer stops than a regular service, thus reducing travel time between major destinations. Similarly, "ekspresný kuriér" refers to a courier service that guarantees delivery within a very short timeframe, such as same-day or next-day delivery. The concept of "ekspresný" is therefore closely tied to efficiency and speed.

The adjective can also be applied to other situations where speed is a defining characteristic. For instance, an "ekspresný autobus" might be a bus route that bypasses many smaller towns to reach its destination more quickly. In some contexts, it might also imply a streamlined or simplified procedure designed for rapid completion. The core meaning remains consistent: faster than usual.
