medzinárodný

Medzinárodný is a Slovak adjective meaning "international" or "between nations." It is formed from the elements medzi ("between") and národný ("national"), reflecting its use to describe things that involve or concern more than one nation.

In Slovak, medzinárodný agrees with the noun it modifies in gender, number and case. It is used in common phrases such as medzinárodný zákon (international law), medzinárodný deň (International Day), medzinárodné vzťahy (international relations), and medzinárodná organizácia (international organization). The word appears in official documents, media, diplomacy, and academic discourse to denote cross-border or multinational aspects.

The feminine singular form is medzinárodná, the neuter singular is medzinárodné, and the plural forms align with the noun they describe. Related terms include nadnárodný (transnational), and collocations like medzinárodná spolupráca (international cooperation) or medzinárodné právo (international law). The term is widely recognized across Slovak-language contexts and parallels analogous constructions in neighboring Slavic languages, reflecting a shared lexical heritage.
