prahového

Prahového is the genitive singular form of the Czech adjective prahový, meaning "threshold" or "relating to a threshold." The underlying noun práh denotes a boundary, limit, or starting point, and the adjective prahový is used to describe things associated with that concept. In Český, the form prahový declines like other adjectives and is chosen to agree with the gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies.

The word appears predominantly in technical, scientific, and everyday contexts where a boundary or limit is being discussed. It can describe measurements, signals, effects, or values that depend on crossing a threshold. Common phrases include prahového efektu (of the threshold effect) or prahového limitu (of the threshold limit). Because it signals a boundary condition, prahový is often encountered in fields such as psychology, statistics, electronics, and experimental science, where threshold concepts are central to interpretation.

Grammar note: praхový forms decline like standard Czech adjectives. The genitive singular form prahového is used with masculine and neuter nouns in that case. For feminine nouns, a different inflection is used. The root noun práh remains the source of the meaning, and the adjective extends it to describe threshold-related attributes.

See also: práh (threshold), prahová hodnota (threshold value), prahový efekt (threshold effect). The term prahového is not a standalone noun; rather, it is a grammatical form that conveys a relation to a threshold within a larger noun phrase.
