Kynutí pokračuje v ošatce.

Kynutí is a noun, not a verb form in this sentence. It means rising, proofing, or leavening in a baking context.

It comes from the verb kynout = to rise / to proof / to leaven.

So:

• kynout = to rise
• kynutí = rising / proofing

This kind of noun is very common in Czech: a verb can become a noun referring to the process itself.

Because the subject of the sentence is kynutí, and that is a singular noun.

• kynutí = the rising / the proofing
• pokračuje = continues

So the structure is:

• Kynutí = subject
• pokračuje = 3rd person singular verb

Even though English might sometimes use something like the dough keeps rising, Czech here focuses on the process itself: the rising continues.

Pokračuje is the 3rd person singular present tense of pokračovat = to continue.

So:

• já pokračuji / pokračuju = I continue
• ty pokračuješ = you continue
• on/ona/ono pokračuje = he/she/it continues

In this sentence, the subject kynutí is grammatically neuter singular, so Czech uses pokračuje.

Because the preposition v usually requires the locative case when it means in in the sense of location.

Here the meaning is in the basket, so ošatka changes to the locative singular:

• nominative: ošatka
• locative: v ošatce

So:

• ošatka = basket
• v ošatce = in the basket

This is a very common pattern in Czech:

• v kuchyni = in the kitchen
• v troubě = in the oven
• v misce = in the bowl
• v ošatce = in the proofing basket

Ošatka is a kind of basket. In everyday Czech it can mean a basket in general, but in baking it often refers to a proofing basket or banneton—the basket where dough rests and rises.

So in this sentence, v ošatce most naturally means in the proofing basket.

Because Czech does not have articles like English a and the.

So Czech simply says:

• Kynutí pokračuje v ošatce.

Depending on context, English might translate that as:

• The proofing continues in the basket.
• Proofing continues in the basket.
• The dough continues to rise in the proofing basket.

Czech leaves definiteness to context rather than using articles.

Yes. Czech word order is more flexible than English because grammatical roles are shown by endings more than by position.

The most neutral order here is:

• Kynutí pokračuje v ošatce.

But other orders are possible, for example:

• V ošatce pokračuje kynutí.

That might put more emphasis on where the action continues.

So the basic meaning stays the same, but the focus can shift depending on word order.

The basic preposition is v = in.

Czech sometimes uses ve instead of v for easier pronunciation, especially before certain consonant clusters, for example:

• ve škole
• ve městě

But before ošatce, plain v is normal:

• v ošatce

So this is just the standard form here.

Not exactly.

• kynutí usually refers to dough rising/proofing
• kvašení usually means fermentation

In baking, the two ideas are related, but kynutí is the more natural word when talking about dough rising in a recipe.

So in this sentence, kynutí is the right word if the focus is the dough continuing to rise in the basket.

Approximately: OH-shat-tseh

A few helpful points:

• š sounds like sh
• c sounds like ts
• the stress in Czech is almost always on the first syllable

So:

• O-šat-ce
• stress on O

And the whole sentence is pronounced roughly like:

• KY-nu-tye po-KRA-cha-ye v OH-shat-tseh

That is only an approximate English-style guide, but it helps with the main sounds and stress.
