pripomenú

Pripomenú is a Slovak word that translates to "they will remind" or "they will be reminded" in English. It is the third-person plural future tense form of the verb pripomenúť. This verb signifies the act of bringing something back to someone's memory or making something noteworthy.

The context in which "pripomenú" is used determines its precise meaning. For example, "Priateľ mi pripomenú jeho narodeniny" means "A friend will remind me of his birthday." Here, the focus is on an external entity (the friend) performing the action of reminding. Alternatively, "Budem sa pripomenúť, ak nič nebudem počuť" translates to "I will remind myself (or ensure I am reminded) if I don't hear anything." In this instance, the subject is actively ensuring a reminder occurs.

The verb "pripomenúť" can also be used impersonally, implying a general remembrance or a need for something to be brought to attention. For instance, "Tieto udalosti sa pripomenú v histórii" suggests "These events will be remembered in history." The passive voice implication is clear, where the events themselves become the subject of remembrance. The word's versatility allows it to convey simple notifications, personal actions of remembrance, or broader historical significance.
