Questions & Answers about Ovlašteni servis provjerava program pranja, bubanj i filtar.
Why is it ovlašteni servis and not some other form of ovlašteni?
Because ovlašteni is an adjective and it has to agree with servis.
- servis is masculine
- singular
- nominative case, because it is the subject of the sentence
So the adjective also appears in the masculine singular nominative form: ovlašteni.
If the noun changed, the adjective would change too:
- ovlaštena tvrtka = an authorized company
- ovlašteno mjesto = an authorized place
- ovlašteni servisi = authorized service centers
What does ovlašteni servis mean exactly?
It means an authorized service center, authorized repair service, or officially approved service provider.
A learner may first think servis only means service, but in Croatian it often means:
- a repair shop
- a maintenance center
- a service department
So ovlašteni servis is a very common phrase for an official repair/service center, especially for appliances, cars, and electronics.
