postupovalpostupovala

Postupovalpostupovala is not a standard lexical item in Czech. It is the concatenation of two past tense forms of the verb postupovat, which means to proceed or to advance (in the imperfective aspect). The form postupoval is used with masculine singular subjects (he was proceeding), while postupovala is used with feminine singular subjects (she was proceeding). Written together without a space, the sequence does not constitute a recognized word; instead it can illustrate how gender and number influence Czech verb forms or serve as an example of typographic or stylistic experimentation.

In normal usage, the two forms would appear in separate clauses or be connected by punctuation or a conjunction. For example, a sentence might read: Jan postupoval, a Marie postupovala, describing two subjects progressing in parallel. The key point for learners is that past tense in Czech agrees with the subject in gender and number, and that the verb form changes accordingly.

Postupovat is the imperfective counterpart of the perfective verb postupovat do? its mood and aspect indicate ongoing or repeated action in the past. The conjugation system yields additional forms for different subjects and numbers (notably masculine plural, feminine plural, and neuter forms in standard tables). This example highlights how Czech orthography treats verb forms as distinct morphemes that encode gender and number.
