trvalém

Trvalém is the locative singular form of the Czech adjective trvalý, which means permanent or lasting. In Czech, adjectives decline to agree with the noun they modify, and the locative case is used after prepositions such as v (in) or o (about). Therefore, trvalém is used before masculine or neuter nouns in the locative singular, as in phrases like v trvalém pobytu (in permanent residence) or o trvalém stavu (about a permanent state).

The term is common in legal, administrative, and everyday language when describing ongoing or enduring conditions, statuses, or characteristics. It often appears in contexts related to residency, housing, employment, or general durability and permanence of a condition or arrangement.

Etymology and related forms: trvalý derives from older Slavic roots associated with continuity and duration and has cognates in other Slavic languages. The word has been integrated into Czech vocabulary to describe something that endures over time, as opposed to temporary or intermittent.
