ubitý

ubitý is a Czech word that can be translated into English in several ways depending on the context. The most common meanings relate to being beaten, struck, or mauled. It can describe a physical assault where someone has been physically harmed by blows or impacts. In a broader sense, it can also refer to being worn out or exhausted, similar to "worn down" or "beaten" in an idiomatic English expression. The word implies a degree of suffering or damage resulting from an external force or excessive effort.

The grammatical form "ubitý" is the past passive participle of the verb "ubít." This verb itself derives from the root "bít," meaning "to beat." Therefore, "ubitý" literally means "having been beaten." The specific nuance of the word often comes from the surrounding sentence and the nature of the implied action. For instance, one might be "ubitý" by an opponent in a fight, or a landscape could be described as "ubitý" by harsh weather conditions over time, signifying a wearing-down effect.
