Questions & Answers about Večeras ću ispisati obrazac i sutra ga odnijeti osobno u općinu.

What does ću mean here, and why is there only one ću even though there are two actions?

Ću is the 1st person singular future auxiliary, so it means I will.

The sentence has two infinitives:

• ispisati = to fill out / write out
• odnijeti = to take / bring somewhere

So the structure is basically:

• Večeras ću ispisati obrazac = Tonight I will fill out the form
• i sutra ga odnijeti osobno u općinu = and tomorrow take it personally to the municipal office

Croatian often uses one future auxiliary for both verbs when they are closely linked. So ću applies to both actions.

You can repeat it if you want:

• Večeras ću ispisati obrazac i sutra ću ga osobno odnijeti u općinu.

That is also correct, just a bit more explicit.

Why is it Večeras ću ispisati, not Ću večeras ispisati?

Because ću is a clitic. In Croatian, clitics usually go in second position in the clause.

So:

• Večeras = first element
• ću = second-position clitic

That makes Večeras ću ispisati... the natural order.

The same thing happens later with ga:

• sutra ga odnijeti

Here sutra is the first element, and ga goes right after it.

This second-position rule is very important in Croatian word order.
