interních

Interních is a grammatical form in Czech and Slovak that functions as the genitive plural of the adjective interní, meaning internal or in-house. It is not a standalone noun, but a case form used to modify a noun in phrases that describe internal aspects within organizations, systems, or bodies. The form is typical in formal or bureaucratic language.

In practice, interních appears in phrases such as interních dokumentů (of internal documents), interních procesů (of internal processes), interních vztahů (of internal relations), or interních auditů (of internal audits). These constructions are common in corporate governance, public administration, and legal or regulatory contexts, where distinguishing internal matters from external ones is important. The adjective interní is widely used in official terminology, policy texts, manuals, and reports, and the genitive plural form interních helps express possession or association with multiple internal items.

Etymology traces interní to the Latin root internus, passed into Central European languages through Romance or Germanic intermediaries, with the Czech and Slovak spellings adapting it to local orthography. The form interních mirrors standard inflection patterns for hard adjectives ending in -í in plural genitive. Its usage reflects a formal register, often appearing in official documents, internal communications, and institutional discourse. Outside of these contexts, more everyday terms for internal things may use alternative phrasing, such as vnitřní or vnitřní věci, depending on style and precision needs.
