schvalovat

Schvalovat is a Czech verb meaning "to approve" or "to endorse." It is commonly used in both formal and informal contexts to describe the act of giving consent, validation, or official approval to a decision, document, or proposal. The verb is derived from the noun *schválení*, which translates to "approval" or "validation."

In Czech administrative and legal processes, *schvalovat* plays a crucial role. Authorities, committees, or designated individuals often use this verb to indicate their acceptance of a request, plan, or regulation. For example, a municipal council might *schválit* (the past tense of *schvalovat*) a new zoning ordinance, meaning it has been officially approved.

The verb is also used in everyday language to express personal agreement or support. For instance, someone might say, *"Schválím tvé rozhodnutí,"* meaning "I approve of your decision." The verb can be conjugated across different tenses and moods to fit various grammatical structures in Czech.

Schvalovat is distinct from similar verbs like *souhlasit* ("to agree") or *potvrdit* ("to confirm"), as it specifically implies a formal or official endorsement rather than mere personal agreement. Its usage is widespread in both written and spoken Czech, reflecting its importance in both bureaucratic and social contexts.
