Questions & Answers about Uzorak je iznad drške.
What does uzorak mean here?
Uzorak most often means sample, specimen, or pattern, depending on context.
In this sentence, the exact English translation depends on what is being talked about:
- if it is a visual design, pattern
- if it is a test piece or example, sample
- if it is a scientific or technical item, specimen or sample
So the Croatian word is broader than a single English equivalent.
Why is it drške and not drška?
Because iznad requires the genitive case, and drška changes in the genitive singular:
- nominative: drška = handle
- genitive: drške = of the handle / above the handle
So after iznad, you normally do not use the basic dictionary form drška. You use drške.
