nepestává

Nepestává is a Czech word that translates to "unending" or "incessant" in English. It is used to describe something that continues without stopping or pause. This can apply to a variety of situations, such as a continuous rain shower, a never-ending task, or an ongoing argument. The word carries a sense of persistence and sometimes weariness, as the continuous nature of the described event can be tiring or overwhelming.

The adjective "nepestává" is formed by combining the prefix "ne-" (meaning "not") with the verb "pestovat" (meaning "to cultivate," "to nurture," or "to continue"). Therefore, literally, it means "not cultivated" or "not continued," but its idiomatic meaning in modern Czech leans towards continuous and unceasing. It is a versatile word that can be used in both formal and informal contexts to emphasize the relentless nature of something. For example, one might describe "nepestává zima" (unending winter) or "nepestává hádka" (incessant argument). The feeling conveyed by the word often implies a lack of resolution or a prolonged state of being.
