All clear now after watching?

Not sure?

Test yourself! Do some exercises.

Make the sentences using the mentioned words. Conjugate the verbs and change the nouns depending on if it’s about direction (akuzativ) or position (lokativ).

REMINDER:

feminine word – škola

Akuzativ: Ja idem u školu.

Lokativ: Ja sam u školi.

masculine (and neutral words) – Brazil

Akuzativ: Ja idem u Brazil.

Lokativ: Ja sam u Brazilu.

!NOTE!

Please USE A DOT at the end of the sentence so the system recognizes your answer as correct.

IF THERE ARE BOTH CROATIAN AND SERBIAN WORDS, you can use any of them. If you’re learning both languages, you can write both versions. Just separate them with / then. (Example: Idem na vlak/voz)*no space before and after /.
