usporiadanie

Usporiadanie is the Slovak term for the act or result of organizing or arranging elements into a coherent whole. It can describe the process of creating order in physical space, in a collection of objects, or in abstract structures such as texts, data sets, or systems. The Czech cognate is uspořádání; in English it is generally translated as organization or arrangement.

Etymology: usporiadanie is derived from the verb usporiadať, meaning to arrange or organize, with the noun suffix -anie. It is related to poriadok, meaning order or tidiness, and to other terms that express systematic structuring.

Usage: the concept is broad and multidisciplinary. In everyday life it refers to putting things in order (usporiadanie vecí) or organizing spaces (usporiadanie priestoru). In mathematics and logic, usporiadanie denotes an ordering relation on a set, used to compare elements. In computer science, it is used for data arrangement or sorting (usporiadanie údajov). In architecture or urban planning, it can describe the layout or structuring of space or territory (usporiadanie územia).
