posuzována

Posuzována is a feminine singular form of the Czech passive participle from the verb posuzovat, meaning to assess, evaluate, or judge. It is used to describe a female subject that is being evaluated by someone else, as in Je posuzována komisí.

As with other Czech participles, posuzována functions as an adjective and agrees with gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies. It can be used predicatively (Je posuzována) or attributively (posuzovaná žena). In discourse about different subjects, the verb has corresponding forms for other genders and numbers (for example, posuzovaný for masculine, posuzované for neuter or plural, depending on case).

Usage contexts include administrative, academic, legal, and media reporting, especially in discussions of selection procedures, grant evaluations, or court considerations. The meaning can refer to ongoing evaluation or to completed evaluation depending on the surrounding construction; for past evaluation, one would typically use byla posuzována, or a similar past-tense form with the passive participle.

Related terms include posuzovat (to assess), posuzování (the act of evaluating), and posuzovací (adjective relating to assessment). Posuzována thus functions both as a grammatical form for describing processes of evaluation and as a semantically neutral descriptor of a subject undergoing assessment.
