osvalený

Osvalený is a term that can refer to a few different concepts, primarily found in Czech and Slovak languages. In its most common usage, it is the past participle of the verb "osvalit," meaning to be or become muscular, strong, or well-built. Therefore, "osvalený" describes a person or, less commonly, an animal, that has developed significant muscle mass and appears robust. This can be achieved through physical training, hard labor, or a naturally athletic physique.

Beyond its literal meaning of physical development, "osvalený" can also carry a figurative connotation. It might describe something that is well-established, solid, or powerful in a non-physical sense. For example, a well-structured argument or a strong political movement could be described as "osvalený" in a metaphorical context, implying resilience and inherent strength.

The word's etymology traces back to the word "sval," meaning muscle. The prefix "o-" often indicates a process or a state of being. Thus, "osvalený" literally means "having become muscular" or "in a state of being muscular." It is a descriptive adjective used to convey a sense of physical prowess or established strength.
