nogometno

Nogometno is a Slovenian adjective derived from nogomet, the word for football (soccer). It is used to describe aspects, concepts, or objects related to football, and it commonly appears in compounds and phrases such as nogometno igrišče (football pitch), nogometno prvenstvo (football championship), or nogometne zveze (football associations).

In Slovenian, adjectives agree with the noun they modify. Nogometno is the neuter singular form; nogometna is feminine, and nogometni is masculine. This allows phrases to be formed with different nouns: nogometni klub (football club), nogometno igrišče (football pitch).

Usage and context: The term is widely used in sports journalism, education, and everyday speech in Slovenia and in Slovene-speaking communities. It belongs to general vocabulary for sports and does not denote a separate discipline; it serves to specify that something concerns football rather than other sports.
