podporou

Podporou is the instrumental singular form of the Czech and Slovak noun podpora, meaning support, backing, or assistance. It is a grammatical form used to express that something is provided with help from someone or something, or that something is achieved through support. In both languages, podporou is commonly used after prepositions that require the instrumental case, most notably with the preposition s meaning “with.”

In practical use, podporou denotes modes of support such as financial backing, political endorsement, or organizational assistance. Examples include phrases like s podporou vlády (with government support) or s finanční podporou (with financial support). The term can also appear in more formal contexts to indicate that a project, initiative, or program is carried out thanks to the aid of an entity or institution.

distinctions between languages are subtle: in Czech and Slovak, podporou functions similarly, but word order and accompanying adjectives or nouns will follow the rules of each language’s instrumental case. In both, the concept is often contrasted with other expressions of support, such as financní podpora or politická podpora, depending on what kind of backing is intended.

See also: podpora, finanční podpora, politická podpora. For broader discussion of the concept, related terms in Czech include podpora a podpořený. In English translations, podporou is typically rendered as “with the support of” or “by means of support.”
