Questions & Answers about Jdu k parku.

Why is there no já (I) at the beginning? Why is it just Jdu k parku and not Já jdu k parku?

In Czech, subject pronouns (like já = I, ty = you) are usually dropped because the verb ending already shows the person.

• jdu can only mean I go / I am going (on foot).
  So já is not needed.

You add já only for emphasis or contrast, e.g.:

• Já jdu k parku, ale on jde domů.
  I’m going to(wards) the park, but he is going home.
