Noun

dnové

1. (archaic, literary) nominative plural of den
   • 1894, Alois Jirásek, “O Čechovi”, in Staré pověsti české:

     A když osmdesátý šestý rok nastal starci, naplnili se jeho dnové a umřel.

     And when the eighty-sixth year of the old man's age came, his days were fulfilled and he died.

Usage notes

Although the noun den is inanimate, the nominative plural form dnové is used as animate (unlike the other two nominative plural forms dni or dny, which stay inanimate).
