odvodená

Odvodená is a Slovak word that translates to "derived" in English. This term is used in various contexts, primarily in linguistics and mathematics, to describe something that originates from or is formed from another element.

In linguistics, "odvodená" refers to a derived word. Derived words are formed by adding affixes (prefixes or suffixes) to a base word or root. For example, the Slovak word "učiteľ" (teacher) is derived from the root "učiť" (to teach) by adding the suffix "-iteľ". Similarly, "nešťastný" (unhappy) is derived from "šťastný" (happy) by adding the prefix "ne-". These derived words often have a related meaning to the original word but a different grammatical function or a modified meaning.

In mathematics, "odvodená" can refer to a derived quantity or concept. For instance, a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) is one that is formed by combining base units through multiplication or division. Examples include meters per second (m/s) for velocity, which is derived from the base units of length (meter) and time (second). The concept of a derivative in calculus is also a form of "odvodená" in the sense that it is derived from the concept of a function and represents its rate of change. The term signifies a logical consequence or outcome from a preceding element or principle.
