| Values: | Dem | Emp | Ind | Int | Neg | Prs | Rel | Tot |
This feature typically applies to pronouns, determiners, pronominal numerals (quantifiers) and pronominal adverbs.
Prs: personal or possessive personal pronoun or determiner
See also the Poss feature that distinguishes normal personal
pronouns from possessives. Note that Prs also includes reflexive
personal/possessive pronouns (e.g. se / svůj; see the
Reflex feature).
Examples
- já, ty, on, ona, ono, my, vy, oni, ony, ona, se “I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they, they, they, oneself”
- můj, tvůj, jeho, její, náš, váš, jejich, svůj “my, your, his/its, her, our, your, their, one’s own”
Int: interrogative pronoun, determiner, numeral or adverb
Note that possessive interrogative determiners (whose) can be distinguished by the Poss feature.
Examples:
- kdo “who”
- co “what”
- jaký “what kind of”
- který “which”
- čí “whose”
- kolik “how many”
- kolikátý “how-maniest” (ordinal number)
- kolikrát “how many times”
- kde “where”
- kam “where to”
- kdy “when”
- jak “how”
- proč “why”
Rel: relative pronoun, determiner, numeral or adverb
Note that this class heavily overlaps with interrogatives, yet there are pronouns that are only relative.
Examples:
- jenž, což “which, that” (relative but not interrogative pronouns)
- jehož “whose” (possessive relative pronoun)
Dem: demonstrative pronoun, determiner, numeral or adverb
These are to some extent parallel to interrogatives.
Examples
- tento “this”
- tamten “that”
- takový “such”
- týž “same”
- tolik “so many”
- tolikátý “so-maniest” (ordinal number)
- tolikrát “so many times”
- tady “here”
- tam “there”
- teď “now”
- tehdy “then”
- tak “so”
Emp: emphatic determiner
Emphatic pro-adjectives (determiners) emphasize the nominal they depend on. There are similarities with reflexive and demonstrative pronouns / determiners.
Examples
- sám as in Sám prezident se přišel podívat. “President himself came to see it.”
Tot: total (collective) pronoun, determiner or adverb
Examples
- každý “every, everybody, everyone, each”
- všechno “everything, all”
- všude “everywhere”
- vždy “always”
Neg: negative pronoun, determiner or adverb

- nikam “(to) nowhere”
- nikdy “never”
