pídavnému

The term "pídavnému" is a Czech grammatical form. It is the dative singular case of the masculine animate adjective "pídavný." This adjective translates to "stingy," "miserly," or "parsimonious" in English. When used in the dative case, it typically indicates the indirect object of a verb or the recipient of an action, often preceded by a preposition like "k" (to) or "pro" (for). For example, one might say "dal peníze pídavnému muži" which translates to "he gave money to the stingy man." The dative case is one of the seven grammatical cases in Czech, used to indicate the function of a noun or pronoun within a sentence. Understanding these cases is crucial for constructing grammatically correct Czech sentences. The adjective "pídavný" itself describes someone who is reluctant to spend money or give things away, often to an excessive degree. The form "pídavnému" specifically applies when referring to a single male person or a masculine animate noun in this particular grammatical context.
