Learning Tips

  • Form comparatives by adding -iji, -ji, or -ši to adjectives (e.g., 'brz' → 'brži').
  • Practice adjective agreement with nouns in gender, number, and case (e.g., 'dobar čovjek' vs. 'dobra žena').
  • Learn possessive adjectives (e.g., 'Ivanov' - Ivan's, 'majčin' - mother's) and practice with examples.
