projednávají

Projednávají is a form of the Czech verb projednávat, meaning to discuss, examine, or negotiate a matter in detail. It is imperfective and used to describe ongoing or repeated discussion, typically by a group such as a committee, council, or board. In English, it is rendered as "they discuss" or "they are discussing."

Grammatically, projednávají is the third-person plural present tense form, used when the subject is multiple actors. The verb is transitive and commonly takes a direct object such as a návrh (proposal), bod (item), téma (topic), or pravidla (rules). It can also appear in the impersonal passive construction se projednávají, as in Na zasedání se projednávají návrhy.

Usage and nuance: The term is frequent in formal contexts—legislative bodies, corporate meetings, municipal assemblies—where topics are considered and decided. It differs from diskutovat (to discuss) in nuance, and from prodat? no—projednat (perfective) which emphasizes the completion of the discussion and the decision stage.

Etymology: Derived from the verb jednat (to act, to negotiate) with the prefix pro-, indicating thorough or forward consideration.

Examples:

- Členové výboru projednávají návrh rozpočtu.

- Na programu jsou projednávány body týkající se reformy.
