oborových

Oborových is a form of the Czech adjective oborový, used to express relation to a field, discipline, or industry. The base noun obor means a field of study, branch, sector, or specialization, and the suffix -ový turns it into an adjective meaning “pertaining to” or “sectoral.” The word oborových specifically is the genitive plural form of oborový, and it appears when the associated noun is in the genitive plural in a sentence.

In practice, oborových is found in technical, academic, economic, and policy language. It commonly appears in phrases describing standards, sectors, or activities associated with particular disciplines. For example, oborových standardů would indicate standards of sectoral or disciplinary nature, while oborových odvětví can refer to sectors tied to specific fields of study or industry. The adjective can thus modify nouns across cases and numbers, always aligning in gender, number, and case with the words it describes.

Oborový is distinct from oborově, the corresponding adverb meaning “in a sectoral/disciplinary manner.” It is also related to nouns such as obor, oborové odvětví, oborový výzkum, and oborová politika, which express the domain-specific concepts that oborových helps qualify in genitive constructions.
