prodluovat

prodluovat is a Czech verb that translates to "to extend" or "to prolong" in English. It describes the act of making something longer in duration, space, or time. For example, one might prodluovat a meeting, meaning to make it last longer than originally scheduled. Similarly, one could prodluovat a contract, indicating an extension of its validity period. The verb can also be used metaphorically, such as prodluovat svuj zivot, meaning to prolong one's life.
