netýkají

netýkají is a Czech word that serves as the third-person plural present tense of the verb týkat se. This verb translates to "to concern," "to relate to," or "to pertain to" in English. Therefore, "netýkají" literally means "they do not concern," "they do not relate to," or "they do not pertain to." It is used in sentences to indicate that a certain group of people or things are not involved with or affected by a particular matter, subject, or event. For example, one might say "Tyto informace se nás netýkají," which translates to "These pieces of information do not concern us." The negative prefix "ne-" is attached to the verb to form the negation. The verb form "netýkají" is specifically used when the subject is plural (e.g., "oni" - they, "ony" - they, or "ona" - they, referring to feminine nouns). When the subject is singular, different conjugations of the verb would be used. Understanding the nuances of Czech verb conjugations, including negative forms, is crucial for accurate communication in the language.
