pvodní

Pvodní is the non-diacritic variant of the Czech adjective původní, meaning original, native, or initial. In standard Czech, the word is written with diacritics as původní. The form without diacritics often appears in computer filenames, URLs, programming contexts, or older texts where diacritics are omitted.

Etymology: původní is formed from the noun původ meaning origin, with the adjectival suffix -ní to create an adjective describing origin or provenance. The diacritic marks indicate vowel length and palatalization that are part of correct Czech spelling.

Usage: Původní describes something’s origin or original state rather than a modified or copied version. It can modify various nouns, such as původní cena (original price), původní majitel (original owner), or původní stav (original condition). The term can also describe people, as in původní obyvatelé meaning indigenous or native inhabitants. In many contexts it is contrasted with nové (new) or kopie (copy). A closely related synonym is originální, which emphasizes originality or creativity as a качеne.

Notes: In Czech, diacritics are standard in formal writing, and omitting them is usually avoided. The non-diacritic form Pvodní is therefore mainly encountered in digital environments, data processing, or historical texts where diacritics were not used.
