Questions & Answers about Zovite me ako igdje nađete oružje.
Why do we use igdje instead of negdje in this sentence?
The word igdje means "anywhere", and it uses the i- prefix common in questions and conditional "if" clauses. If you used negdje, it would mean "somewhere", but igdje emphasizes finding it anywhere at all.
Why is the present tense nađete used if this is about a future event?
After the word ako (if), Croatian often uses the present tense of a perfective verb to express a future possibility. Naći (to find) is a perfective verb, so nađete here means "you happen to find". Perfective verbs are almost always used this way in dependent clauses rather than for actions happening right now.
Is Zovite in the present tense?
No, zovite is the imperative form, which makes it a command ("Call me!"). If it were the regular present tense ("you are calling"), it would be spelled zovete.
What case is oružje in, and why does it look like the dictionary form?
It is in the accusative case because it is the direct object (the thing being found). It looks exactly like the nominative (dictionary) form because oružje is a neuter noun. In Croatian, neuter nouns always share the exact same form for both the nominative and accusative cases.
