Questions & Answers about Trvalý pobyt se zaeviduje v informačním systému evidence obyvatel.
What exactly does trvalý pobyt mean in Czech?
Trvalý pobyt is an official administrative term. It means a person’s permanent residence or registered permanent address in the legal/bureaucratic sense.
It does not always mean the place where someone is physically living every day. In Czech administration, a person can have a trvalý pobyt at one address while actually staying somewhere else.
- trvalý = permanent
- pobyt = stay, residence
So together it means something like permanent residence status/address.
Why is zaeviduje translated as a future action, even though it looks like present tense?
Because zaeviduje is a perfective verb form.
In Czech, perfective verbs do not normally express a true present action. Their “present-tense” forms usually refer to the future, especially a completed future event.
So:
- eviduje = he/she/it is registering, registers, is recording (imperfective)
- zaeviduje = he/she/it will register, will record officially (perfective)
Here, zaeviduje means that the registration will be completed.
