usek

Usek is a term that may refer to more than one concept in different languages and contexts. It is not a single, widely recognized subject but rather a transliteration, surname, or place-name form that appears in various Slavic-language materials.

In Czech and Slovak, the word úsek means a section, stretch, or segment within a larger sequence such as a road, timetable, or contract. When diacritics are omitted in ASCII text, the form can appear as usek. The meaning therefore depends on context, and the unaccented spelling is typically a transliteration issue rather than a separate word.

Usek can also occur as a surname in Slavic-speaking communities. As with many surnames, its distribution is localized and most often encountered in genealogical or civil records rather than as a common noun.

The precise interpretation of usek should be inferred from surrounding text. If used as a proper noun, it may refer to a family name; if used as a common noun, it is likely the unaccented form of úsek meaning a section or segment.

See also: Úsek; transliteration of diacritic-bearing words. Notes: In English-language or non-Slavic contexts, usek is rarely a standalone term, and readers should rely on contextual clues or check for the accented form úsek when available.
