Usage notes

  • English “Slovak” as an attributive adjective usually correponds in Latvian to slovāku, the genitive plural form of slovākis. The adjective slovākisks is commonly used as a predicate (“this is Slovak”), or in its adverbial form slovākiski.
  • The forms with short a (Slovakija, slovaks, slovakisks, etc.) have been officially replaced by the forms with long ā (Slovākija, slovāks, slovākisks, etc.); they are, however, found in older texts, and still occasionally in present-day texts.
