Questions & Answers about Djeca polako ulaze u učionicu.
Why is djeca translated as children? It looks singular.
Djeca means children and is grammatically treated as a plural subject in this sentence.
A few useful points:
- dijete = child
- djeca = children
So djeca is not the regular kind of plural you might expect from dijete, but it is the normal word for children.
That is why the verb is also plural:
- Djeca ulaze = The children are entering
Not:
- Djeca ulazi
Why is the verb ulaze?
