nesprávna

Nesprávna is the feminine singular form of the Slovak adjective nesprávny, meaning not correct or erroneous. It is used to describe feminine nouns and agrees with the noun in gender, number, and case.

The word is formed with the negation prefix ne- attached to správny (correct). In Slovak, adjectives decline to agree with the noun; common forms include nesprávny (masculine singular), nesprávna (feminine singular), and nesprávne (neuter singular or plural).

Usage: Nesprávna is used to express that something is incorrect, false, or inappropriate. It occurs in education, journalism, and everyday speech. Examples: Nesprávna odpoveď na otázku. (This is an incorrect answer.) Nesprávna adresa uvedená v zozname. Nesprávne tvrdenie spôsobí nedorozumenie. (An incorrect statement will cause misunderstanding.)

Etymology and related forms: The prefix ne- conveys negation, while správny means correct. Related forms cover the full gender and number spectrum (for instance, nesprávny, nesprávne) to agree with different nouns in sentences. The antonym is správna alebo správny, depending on the noun’s gender.

See also: správny; nesprávny is the broader adjective family meaning “not correct” or “wrong” in Slovak, with parallels in related Slavic languages such as Czech nesprávný and nesprávná.
