svítil

Svítil is a Czech verb in the past tense, masculine singular form, meaning "it shone" or "he/she shone". It is derived from the infinitive verb "svítit", which translates to "to shine" or "to light up". This verb can be used in various contexts, both literal and figurative. Literally, it describes the emission of light, such as the sun shining ("Slunce svítil") or a lamp illuminating a room ("Lampa svítil"). Figuratively, it can refer to something being bright or evident, like an idea shining through or a person being radiant. The past tense conjugation in Czech indicates that the action of shining occurred in the past. The masculine singular form "svítil" is used when the subject performing the action is masculine and singular, or when referring to an inanimate object that is grammatically masculine. Other past tense forms exist for different genders and numbers, such as "svítila" (feminine singular) or "svítilo" (neuter singular). The word's usage is common in everyday Czech conversation and literature.
