osoba, ktorá odmieta nosiť rúško


Definition from TA3:
ľudia, ktorí odmietajú nosiť rúško

Example sentence(s):
  • Vláda sa chystá razantnejšie zakročiť proti ľuďom, ktorí odmietajú nosiť rúška. Podľa návrhu kancelárky Angely Merkelovej a premiérov spolkových republík im bude v celej krajine hroziť 50 eurová pokuta. - TA3  
  • „Ľudia, ktorí odmietajú nosiť rúška, by si mali uvedomiť, že lekári či zdravotníci ich musia nosiť nepretržite niekoľko hodín a zvládajú to.“ - Univerzita Komenského v Bratislave  

Explanation:
Na internete existuje aj výraz "odmietač rúška", ale ide skôr o hovorový termín, ktorý sa niekedy dáva do úvodzoviek. "odmietač" v Slovníku slovenského jazyka neexistuje, takže ani nejde o spisovné slovo, preto som sa priklonila k opisnému termínu. Prispôsobila som ho jednotnému číslu, keďže na internete sa vyskytuje hlavne v množnom čísle.
