Questions & Answers about Liječnica radi drugdje.

Why is it liječnica and not liječnik?

Because liječnica is the feminine form of doctor, while liječnik is the masculine form.

• liječnik = a male doctor
• liječnica = a female doctor

So this sentence specifically refers to a female doctor. Croatian often marks gender directly in the noun.

Does radi only mean works, or can it mean other things too?

Radi most commonly means works here, from the verb raditi.

In this sentence, radi means works in the sense of employment or doing one’s job:

• Liječnica radi drugdje. = The female doctor works elsewhere.

But raditi can also mean to do, to function, or to operate, depending on context. For example:

• Što radiš? = What are you doing?
• Auto ne radi. = The car isn’t working.

So the exact meaning depends on context, but in this sentence works is the natural interpretation.
