Learning Tips

  • Use verb prefixes (e.g., 'zapisati', 'upisati', 'prepisati') to explore how they change meanings and practice with examples.
  • Focus on mastering three key tenses: Prezent (present), Perfekt (past), and Futur I (future) with regular verbs first.
  • Understand the difference between svršeni (perfective) and nesvršeni (imperfective) aspects through examples (e.g., 'pisati' means 'to write' continuously, while 'napisati' means 'to write' to completion).
