informáciu

Informáciu is the accusative singular form of the Slovak feminine noun informácia, which denotes information, data, or knowledge that is communicated or obtained. The core sense is content that reduces uncertainty by providing facts, explanations, or instructions. Informácia can refer to a single fact, news, or general information, depending on context.

Etymology and scope: informácia comes from Latin informatio, meaning instruction or disclosure, and entered Slovak through the broader European tradition of adopting information-related terms. In standard usage, informáciu is the direct object form used after verbs that involve obtaining or transmitting knowledge, such as získať informáciu or poslať informáciu.

Usage: Common contexts include journalism, administration, and everyday communication. Phrases such as získať informáciu (to obtain information), poskytnúť informáciu (to provide information), or mať informáciu (to have information) illustrate its role as a concrete piece of knowledge or data. In formal writing, informácia as a noun may appear with modifiers describing its source, reliability, or relevance.

Related terms: informácia (nominative singular) refers to information in general, while informácie (plural) denotes multiple pieces of information. Synonyms and near-synonyms include údaj (datum), údaje (data), fakty (facts), and správa (report). The word informáciu is distinct in its grammatical case but shares the same semantic field as these terms.
