sedemnácté

sedemnáctá is a Czech word that translates to "seventeenth" in English. It is the feminine ordinal number, used when referring to a feminine noun. For example, "sedmnáctá hodina" means "seventeenth hour" or 5 PM. The masculine form is "sedmnáctý" and the neuter form is "sedmnácté".

The number seventeen itself is considered in many cultures to be unlucky or significant, though this is not inherent to the word "sedemnáctá". Its use is purely grammatical, indicating order or position within a sequence. When counting or enumerating items, the appropriate form of the ordinal number is chosen based on the gender of the noun being described.

In everyday Czech language, "sedmnáctá" would be used in contexts such as dates, ranks, or positions. For instance, one might refer to the "sedmnáctá kapitola" (seventeenth chapter) of a book or the "sedmnáctá minuta" (seventeenth minute) of a sporting event. The correct usage ensures grammatical accuracy in the Czech language.
