解析 pohlaví in your Level:

At the A1 level, you only need to know that 'pohlaví' means 'gender' or 'sex'. You will see this word on forms. The most important phrases are 'mužské pohlaví' (male) and 'ženské pohlaví' (female). Remember that the word ends in 'í' and is neuter, so adjectives describing it also end in 'é'. You don't need to worry about complex grammar yet; just recognize it when you fill out your name and address on a document. It's a 'static' word at this level, meaning it doesn't change much in the sentences you'll be using.

At the A2 level, you should be able to use 'pohlaví' in simple sentences about people and animals. You might use it to ask about a new baby: 'Jakého pohlaví je to miminko?' (What gender is the baby?). You should also be aware of the difference between 'pohlaví' and 'rod' (grammatical gender), as you start learning about masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns. You'll notice that 'pohlaví' is used in medical contexts, so knowing it helps when visiting a doctor in a Czech-speaking country.

pohlaví 30秒了解

Pohlaví means 'sex' or 'gender' in Czech.
It is a neuter noun belonging to the 'stavení' pattern.
Essential for official forms and medical contexts.
Distinguished from 'rod' (grammatical gender).

The Czech word pohlaví is a fundamental noun used to describe the biological sex or social gender of a person or animal. In its most basic sense, it refers to the classification of living beings as male or female based on reproductive functions. However, in modern Czech, its usage has expanded to encompass broader discussions about identity, though it still retains a strong connection to biological and administrative contexts. When you are filling out a form in the Czech Republic, whether at a doctor's office or a government building, you will almost certainly encounter this word in the section asking for your personal details.

Biological Classification: In biological and medical contexts, pohlaví refers to the anatomical and physiological traits. For example, 'mužské pohlaví' (male sex) and 'ženské pohlaví' (female sex) are the standard terms used in scientific literature and medical records.
Administrative Identity: On official documents like passports (pas), ID cards (občanský průkaz), and birth certificates (rodný list), pohlaví is the standard label for the gender marker. It is usually abbreviated to 'M' for muž (man) and 'Ž' for žena (woman).
Social and Linguistic Nuance: While English often distinguishes between 'sex' (biological) and 'gender' (social), Czech traditionally uses pohlaví for both. While the loanword 'gender' is increasingly used in academic and activist circles, the average Czech speaker will use pohlaví to cover both concepts unless a specific distinction is required.

Při vyplňování formuláře musíte uvést své pohlaví.

Translation: When filling out the form, you must state your gender/sex.

Věda rozlišuje mezi mužským a ženským pohlavím.

Translation: Science distinguishes between the male and female sex.

Beyond the human sphere, pohlaví is also used in botany and zoology. You might hear about 'pohlaví rostlin' (the sex of plants) when discussing pollination. In everyday conversation, the term is neutral and formal. It is not considered slang, but rather the standard, respectful way to refer to this aspect of identity. Interestingly, the word is etymologically related to the concept of 'half' or 'side', suggesting a division of a whole into two parts.

Using pohlaví correctly requires understanding its role as a neuter noun and how it interacts with adjectives. Because it ends in a long 'í', it belongs to the soft declension pattern 'stavení'. This is a blessing for learners because the word looks the same in the nominative, genitive, dative, and accusative singular cases.

Agreement with Adjectives: Since pohlaví is neuter, any adjective describing it must also be in the neuter form. For example: 'silné pohlaví' (the strong sex - traditionally referring to men) and 'slabé pohlaví' (the weak sex - traditionally referring to women, though these terms are now often seen as outdated or used ironically).
Prepositional Usage: Common prepositions used with this word include 'podle' (according to) and 'bez ohledu na' (regardless of). For example: 'Rozdělení podle pohlaví' (Division according to gender).

Lékař určil pohlaví dítěte už ve dvanáctém týdnu.

Translation: The doctor determined the baby's sex as early as the twelfth week.

Diskriminace na základě pohlaví je v této firmě nepřípustná.

Translation: Discrimination on the basis of gender is unacceptable in this company.

In plural forms, pohlaví is used to refer to both sexes collectively. 'Obě pohlaví' (both sexes/genders) is a very common phrase. For example: 'Tato soutěž je otevřená pro obě pohlaví.' (This competition is open to both sexes). When discussing sociology or psychology, you might encounter 'pohlavní identita' (gender identity), where 'pohlavní' is the adjectival form derived from the noun.

Understanding where pohlaví fits into daily life helps in recognizing its register. It is not a word you use every five minutes in casual conversation, like 'ahoj' or 'pivo', but it is essential for formal and specific contexts.

The Doctor's Office (U lékaře): Medical professionals use pohlaví constantly. From discussing symptoms that might be gender-specific to checking ultrasound results during pregnancy, this is the primary term for biological sex.
News and Media (Zprávy): When reporting statistics, journalists use pohlaví. 'Nezaměstnanost se liší podle pohlaví' (Unemployment varies by gender). You will also hear it in debates about equal pay or social representation.
Legal and Official Forms (Úřady): Every official registration, from signing up for a gym membership to applying for a visa, requires you to identify your pohlaví.

V dotazníku byla kolonka pro pohlaví hned vedle data narození.

Translation: In the questionnaire, the box for gender was right next to the date of birth.

You might also encounter the word in historical or literary contexts. Older literature might use 'krásné pohlaví' (the fair sex) to refer to women, though this is now considered archaic and somewhat patronizing. In biology class, students learn about 'pohlavní rozmnožování' (sexual reproduction), further cementing the word's role as the scientific standard for sex-related concepts.

For English speakers, the most common pitfall when using pohlaví is confusing it with other Czech words that translate to 'gender' in specific contexts, or misapplying grammatical rules.

Pohlaví vs. Rod: This is the biggest hurdle. Pohlaví is biological/social gender. Rod is grammatical gender (masculine, feminine, neuter). If you are talking about whether a noun is masculine, use rod. If you are talking about whether a person is male, use pohlaví.
Declension Errors: Because pohlaví ends in 'í', some learners try to decline it like an adjective. It is a noun! Do not say 'pohlavího' for the genitive; it remains 'pohlaví'.

Špatně: Jaký je rod tohoto pacienta? Správně: Jaké je pohlaví tohoto pacienta?

Translation: Wrong: What is the grammatical gender of this patient? Right: What is the sex/gender of this patient?

Another mistake is using the word 'sex' in Czech. While 'sex' exists in Czech, it refers exclusively to the act of sexual intercourse. If you want to talk about someone's gender on a form, never use 'sex'; always use pohlaví. Additionally, learners often forget that pohlaví is neuter. Saying 'mužský pohlaví' is incorrect; it must be 'mužské pohlaví' to match the neuter gender of the noun.

To truly master pohlaví, you should know its synonyms and how it compares to related terms in the Czech language.

Rod: Meaning 'lineage', 'genus', or 'grammatical gender'. In modern sociological texts, you might see 'sociální rod' used to translate 'gender' as a social construct, but pohlaví remains more common for general use.
Gender: This is a direct loanword from English. It is used specifically in academic, feminist, and LGBT+ contexts to distinguish social identity from biological sex (pohlaví).
Sexualita: While pohlaví is about identity/classification, sexualita refers to sexual orientation and behavior. Do not confuse the two.

V biologii mluvíme o pohlaví, v lingvistice o rodu.

Translation: In biology we talk about sex, in linguistics about (grammatical) gender.

When describing someone's nature or character, Czechs sometimes use 'nátura' or 'povaha', but these are never used as substitutes for pohlaví. If you want to be very formal, you might use the phrase 'příslušník mužského/ženského pohlaví' (a member of the male/female sex), which is common in police reports or legal documents. Understanding these distinctions ensures you sound natural and precise in your Czech communication.

小贴士

Declension Trick

Since 'pohlaví' ends in 'í', it stays the same in singular cases 1, 2, 3, and 4. This makes it very easy to use!

Forms

When you see 'M' and 'Ž' on a form, 'M' is for Muž (Male) and 'Ž' is for Žena (Female).

Opposite Sex

Use 'opačné pohlaví' to talk about the opposite sex. It's much more common than saying 'jiné pohlaví'.

Voiced H

Make sure you voice the 'h'. It’s not a silent letter, and it’s not as harsh as 'ch'.

Professionalism

In a legal or medical document, always use 'pohlaví' rather than trying to use English-sounding words.

The 'í' Rule

The long 'í' at the end is like a long line—think of the line people stand in, divided by gender.

Pohlaví vs Rod

People have 'pohlaví', words have 'rod'. If it breathes, it's 'pohlaví'.

Plants

Yes, you can use 'pohlaví' for plants too! It's the standard biological term.

Adjective Matching

Always end your adjectives in '-é' when describing 'pohlaví' (e.g., mužské, ženské).

Context Clues

If you hear 'obě' (both), the next word is very likely 'pohlaví' in a social context.

记住它

记忆技巧
