Questions & Answers about Želim posijati origano u posudu za cvijeće.

Why is it želim posijati and not something like želim da posijem?

After željeti (to want), Croatian very commonly uses the infinitive:

• Želim posijati origano. = I want to sow oregano.

So this structure is very normal:

• želim ići = I want to go
• želim kupiti = I want to buy
• želim posijati = I want to sow

You can also hear a da + present tense structure in some contexts, but with želim + infinitive, the sentence sounds straightforward and standard.
