vplivna

Vplivna is a Slovenian adjective meaning influential or having significant influence. It is the feminine singular form used to describe a feminine noun, such as a person or entity with sway in a given field. The base forms are vpliven (masculine) and vplivno (neuter), with feminine vplivna. The word derives from the noun vpliv (influence).

Usage and sense: Vplivna is commonly employed in journalism, politics, business, and cultural discourse to characterize individuals, organizations, or phenomena that can shape opinions, decisions, or outcomes. It often appears in phrases like vplivna oseba (an influential person), vplivna voditeljica (an influential female leader), or vplivna vloga pri sprejemanju odločitev (an influential role in decision-making). The term conveys a qualitative assessment of influence rather than mere importance or strength.

Examples: Ta ženska je zelo vplivna voditeljica. Njena vloga je vplivna pri sprejemanju odločitev. Vplivna podjetja lahko oblikujejo tržne trende in javno mrenje.

Relation and nuance: While synonyms exist, such as pomemben (important) or močan (powerful), vplivna emphasizes the capacity to affect outcomes through influence, networks, or authority. It is primarily used within Slovenian-language contexts and follows standard Slovenian adjective agreement rules.
