mrakových

Mrakových is the genitive plural form of the Czech adjective mrakový, which means cloud-related or pertaining to clouds. It is not a standalone noun; rather, it is a declined form used to modify nouns in the genitive plural. The ending reflects standard Czech adjective declension: adjectives of the -ový class take the ending -ových in the genitive plural.

Origin and meaning: derived from the noun mrak (cloud) with the adjectival suffix -ový, mrakový describes properties or relations to clouds, such as cloud-related features or phenomena.

Usage: in meteorology, climatology, and descriptive prose, mrakový and its inflected forms appear to describe atmospheric features. Examples include phrases like mrakových vrstev (cloud layers, genitive plural) and mrakových systémů (cloud systems). Because it is a grammatical form, it does not typically stand alone in ordinary prose; it requires a following noun in the appropriate case.

Context: in everyday language, speakers more often use nouns such as oblačnost to refer to cloudiness, while adjectival forms like mrakový appear chiefly in technical, scientific, or descriptive contexts where precise modification of a noun is needed.
