Questions & Answers about Poškození zdokumentujeme stejně.

Why is there no word for we in Poškození zdokumentujeme stejně?

Because Czech often omits subject pronouns when they are clear from the verb form.

Here, zdokumentujeme means we will document. The ending -me tells you the subject is we, so adding my (we) is usually unnecessary.

So:

• zdokumentujeme = we will document
• my zdokumentujeme = we will document, but with extra emphasis on we

In normal neutral speech, Czech usually leaves my out.
