Learning Tips

  • Learn possessive adjectives (e.g., 'Ivanov' - Ivan's, 'majčin' - mother's) and practice with examples.
  • Study soft vs. hard stem changes in adjectives to match noun patterns (e.g., 'dobar' → 'dobri').
  • Use common prefixes like 'pre-' (too), 'naj-' (most), and 'ne-' (not) to modify adjectives (e.g., 'prekrasan' - too beautiful).
