montrealský

Montrealský is an adjective used in Czech and Slovak to denote relation to the city of Montreal in Quebec, Canada. The form is derived from the toponym Montreal with the common Slavic suffix -ský, which is used to form adjectives and demonyms from place names. In practice, montrealský describes objects, events, institutions, or people connected with Montreal, functioning much like an English Montreal-related descriptor in concise phrasing.

In usage, the term appears in descriptive prose, translations, or compound names to indicate a Montreal connection. For example, it may be used to denote Montreal-based cultural phenomena or institutions in Czech or Slovak texts. The exact conventional usage can vary by context and style, and in some cases authors prefer explicit phrases such as “z Montréalu” (from Montreal) or “pocházející z Montrealu” to avoid ambiguity.

Montrealský can also be found, in principle, as a surname, signaling toponymic origin from Montreal. When used as a surname, it follows the standard gendered declension of Czech and Slovak adjectives: masculine Montrealský, feminine Montrealská, neuter Montrealské.
