formulármi

Formulármi is the instrumental plural of the Slovak noun formulár, meaning a form or document to be filled out. It appears in official and everyday administrative language. The corresponding nominative plural is formuláre, meaning forms; instrumental plural formulármi expresses the instrument or means and is used after the preposition s (with) or in phrases describing handling of forms.

Etymology: The word formulár is a loanword from French formulaire or Latin formula, adopted into Slovak through contact with other Central European languages; cognates exist in Czech (formulář), Polish (formularz), and others.

Usage: In Slovak, formulármi is used in contexts involving multiple forms: "S formulármi na podanie žiadosti" (with the forms for submitting the application); "Pracujeme so všetkými formulármi" (we work with all the forms). In everyday language, speakers typically use formulár or tlačivo for a single document; formuláre for multiple forms in nominative, and formulármi when the instrumental case is needed.

Notes: Because it is a grammatical inflection rather than a semantically distinct concept, formulármi is usually encountered in grammar explanations rather than as a standalone topic. It demonstrates how Slovak marks instrumental plural of masculine nouns ending in -ár.
