jednoduchích

Jednoduchých is a form of the Czech adjective jednoduchý, meaning simple or straightforward. It is the genitive plural form, used when an adjective describes a noun in genitive plural.

In practice, the form appears in phrases that require the genitive plural, for example bez jednoduchých chyb (without simple mistakes). It can also occur in noun phrases that describe quantities or types, such as množství jednoduchých pravidel (the amount of simple rules). The ending -ých signals genitive plural for adjectives in Czech.

Meaning and nuance: In Czech, jednoduchý generally characterizes a lack of complexity in structure or content, rather than the degree of ease in performing something. The word snadný or snadnější is more typical for describing how easy something is to do. For example, jednoduchý postup implies a straightforward procedure, while snadný postup emphasizes ease of execution.

Related forms and notes: The opposite concept is složitý (complex). The dictionary base is jednoduchý; in other cases the form changes to agree with the noun (for example in other gender and case endings). The genitive plural form jednodughých (jednoduchých) specifically matches nouns in genitive plural and is a common construction in formal and written Czech.
