proklínáte

Proklínáte is a Czech verb form, specifically the second-person plural present tense of the verb proklínat. The meaning of proklínat is “to curse” or “to damn,” in both literal and figurative senses. As such, proklínáte denotes an action performed by you all (vy) toward someone or something, for example in a sentence like “Vy proklínáte toho člověka” (You curse that person).

Grammatically, proklínáte is an inflected form used with a direct object in the accusative. The root verb, proklínat, is derived from the base klít (to swear, to curse) with the prefix pro-, which in this context intensifies or directs the action toward the target. The word can appear in literary, rhetorical, or emphatic narration to convey strong condemnation, anger, or reproach. In everyday conversation, it is a strong term and may be perceived as hostile or dramatic.

Usage notes and related forms: the corresponding present tense forms include proklínám (I curse), proklínáš (you curse, singular), proklíná (he/she/it curses), proklínáme (we curse), proklínáte (you curse, plural), and proklínají (they curse). The noun forms related to the concept are proklínání (the act of cursing) and kletba (a curse). Proklínáte thus functions as a concrete, direct expression of cursing within Czech verb conjugation patterns.
