jménový

jménový is a Czech adjective derived from the noun "jméno," meaning "name." It translates to "nominal" or "named" in English. In linguistics, "jménový" is often used to describe elements that function like nouns, even if they are not strictly nouns. For example, in Czech grammar, a "jménový tvar" (nominal form) might refer to participles or infinitives when they are used as subjects or objects in a sentence, acting in a noun-like capacity. This contrasts with verbal forms or other grammatical constructions. The term can also appear in contexts outside of pure linguistics, generally referring to something that is designated by a name or title, such as a "jménový seznam" (a named list) or a "jménový štítek" (a name tag). The core concept revolves around the association with or function of a name. It emphasizes the naming or titular aspect of a word or concept.
