Questions & Answers about Moram srediti dokumente za natječaj.
Why is the verb srediti used here instead of sređivati?
Srediti is the perfective (completed action) form of the verb. Because you are talking about getting the documents completely sorted out and finished for the application, rather than the ongoing process of organizing them, you need this perfective form.
What case is dokumente in, and why does it end in -e?
It is in the accusative case because it is the direct object of the verb srediti (it is the thing you are sorting out). The singular masculine noun dokument takes the ending -e in the accusative plural.
What case is used for natječaj after the preposition za?
It is in the accusative case. The preposition za takes the accusative when indicating purpose (doing something for an application). Because natječaj is a masculine inanimate noun (not a living being), its accusative form looks exactly the same as its dictionary form.
Does the word natječaj strictly mean application?
Not quite. Natječaj broadly means a competition, contest, or open tender. When applying for a job, a grant, or a university spot, it refers to the official call for applications or the competitive application process itself.
