vyuíváte

Vyuíváte is not a standard Czech spelling of a common verb form. In standard Czech, the second-person plural present tense of the verb využívat (and its perfective counterpart využít) is využíváte. The form vyuíváte appears to be a typographical or diacritic omission (the ž in využívat is rendered as a plain z-like sequence), and it is not recognized as a correct literary form. The entry below treats vyuíváte as a misspelling and explains the correct form and usage.

Meaning and usage

Využívat means to use, to make use of, or to take advantage of something in a general sense. It covers everyday usage (utilizing tools, time, opportunities) as well as more instrumental or strategic use of resources. The nuances can range from neutral, practical usage to a more negative sense of exploiting someone or something, depending on context. The present-tense form využíváte is used for you (plural) or you (formal singular) in the present, as in addressing multiple people or a formal single person.

Grammar and morphology

Využívat is imperfective; využíváte is the second-person plural present indicative. The corresponding singular informal form is využíváš, while the formal singular is využíváte as well, with context making the number clear. The perfective counterpart využít has different present/future forms (e.g., využijete).

Examples

Využíváte volný čas k dalšímu studiu. Využíváte všech dostupných zdrojů k projektu. V některých případech lze využívat i zdroje s opatrností.
