normálního

Normálního is a declined form of the Czech adjective normální, which means normal, typical, or ordinary. The base adjective normální is used to describe things that conform to common standards, expectations, or everyday experience. The form normálního is not a separate word with its own meaning; it is the genitive singular masculine form (and also the accusative singular masculine animate form) of normální, used when the noun it modifies is masculine singular and in those cases.

In practice, normálního appears most often in phrases where the noun is masculine singular and in genitive or accusative positions. For example, in the genitive: “týká se normálního člověka” (it concerns a normal person) or in the accusative: “viděl jsem normálního člověka” (I saw a normal person). It can also occur in other syntactic roles that require the same form, such as certain prepositional or attributive constructions.

Usage notes: normální is widely used in everyday Czech to describe people, objects, situations, or ideas as ordinary or expected. The term can carry a neutral meaning, but in some contexts it may imply a normative or evaluative sense, especially when contrasted with what is abnormal, unusual, or extreme. The form normálního aligns with standard Czech inflection patterns for adjectives modifying masculine singular nouns.

Etymology: normální derives from norma, meaning standard or rule, via Latin, and has cognates in other Slavic languages. See also: normální (the base form), běžný, obvyklý, standardní.
