narozených

Narozených is a form of the Czech adjective narozený, meaning born. It is specifically the genitive plural form of this adjective and is used when the noun it modifies is in the genitive case. The form appears in noun phrases describing birth status or birth year, and it is derived from the verb narodi t se (to be born).

In practice, narozených is most commonly seen in phrases with a following noun in the genitive plural, for example: po čet narozených dětí — the number of born children; překladateli: přehled narozených dětí — an overview of born children; mezi narozených lid a rmi — contexts where the structure is used in longer genitive constructions. In these cases the accompanying noun is typically in genitive plural (dětí, lidí, dalších), while narozených itself bears the -ých ending.

Narozených is not a standalone noun; it is a declined participial adjective form. It answers questions tied to birth status within a sentence, such as “how many were born?” or “who were born in a certain period,” when embedded in larger noun phrases. It contrasts with the nominative form narozený (masculine singular) or other gendered forms like narozená (feminine) and narozené (neuter or plural in nominative).

The related noun is narození, meaning birth. The term narozených thus sits within a family of words connected to birth, including variations for different cases and numbers.
