See also: Appendix:Variations of "rad"
Czech
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Inherited from Old Czech rád, from Proto-Slavic *radъ.
Pronunciation
[edit]Adjective
[edit]rád (comparative raději or radši, superlative nejraději or nejradši)
- glad
- To jsem rád, že jsi přišel. ― I'm glad you came.
Usage notes
[edit]- This adjective can only be used predicatively, not attributively. Like glad, it expresses a propositional attitude.
- This word actually agrees with the subject, but in meaning, it essentially describes the verb. It is often mistaken to be an adverb.
- It is used with a verb describing an activity to show that the subject likes, liked, will or would like to execute that activity.
- Rád zpíval. ― He liked singing (literally, He, glad, sang. )
- Raději se předvádí. ― She likes better to show off.
- Ráda nám pomůže. ― She'll be glad to help us.
- Co bych udělal nejraději? ― What would I like to do best?
- Its common use with the preposition za is usually considered stylistically inappropriate and colloquial. The use of a subordinate clause or the dative case is recommended although the dative case can sound dated.
- Jsem tomu rád. / Jsem rád, že se to stalo. ― I'm glad about that. / I'm glad it happened.
- Jsem za to rád. (colloquial) ― I'm glad about that.
