Dnes večer chci jít s tebou do kina.

A natural word-by-word breakdown is:

• dnes = today
• večer = evening / in the evening
• chci = I want
• jít = to go
• s tebou = with you
• do kina = to the cinema

So the structure is basically:

today evening + I want + to go + with you + to the cinema

In natural English, that becomes something like I want to go to the cinema with you this evening.

Because the preposition s meaning with requires the instrumental case in this sentence.

The basic pronoun is:

• ty = you (singular, informal)

But after s, it changes form:

• s tebou = with you

This is very common in Czech: pronouns change depending on their grammatical role or after certain prepositions.

A few similar examples:

• bez tebe = without you
• pro tebe = for you
• k tobě = to you
• s tebou = with you

So s ty would be ungrammatical.

Because do meaning to / into takes the genitive case.

The noun is:

• kino = cinema

But after do, it becomes:

• do kina = to the cinema

So:

• kino = dictionary form / nominative
• do kina = genitive after do

This is a very important Czech pattern:

• do školy = to school
• do města = to the city
• do domu = into the house
• do kina = to the cinema

Jít means to go on foot or more generally to go in many everyday situations. In this sentence, jít do kina is the normal expression for to go to the cinema.

Jet is used more for going by vehicle or traveling by some means of transport:

• jedu do Prahy = I’m going to Prague (by train/car/bus, etc.)
• jdu do kina = I’m going to the cinema

Even if in real life you take a bus to the cinema, Czech often still says jít do kina, because it refers to the activity of going there, not necessarily the precise mode of transport.

So in this sentence, jít is the natural choice.

Because chci means I want, and that desire exists now. The sentence is saying that right now, the speaker wants to do something later.

So the timeline is:

• now: I want
• later this evening: to go to the cinema

This works the same way in English:

• I want to go tonight

The verb want is present, even though the going happens in the future.

Chci is the 1st person singular present tense of chtít, which means to want.

Conjugation:

• chci = I want
• chceš = you want
• chce = he/she/it wants
• chceme = we want
• chcete = you want (plural/formal)
• chtějí = they want

So in this sentence, chci jít means I want to go.

Yes, chci is one of those forms many learners notice right away.

A rough pronunciation is:

• chci ≈ kh-tsee

More precisely:

• ch in Czech is like the ch in Scottish loch or German Bach
• then comes c, which sounds like ts
• then i

So the whole word is something like kh-tsi.

It can feel awkward at first because of the consonant cluster, but it becomes easier with practice.

Because dnes večer is a standard Czech time expression meaning this evening / tonight.

Czech often uses short adverbial time phrases without a preposition:

• dnes = today
• zítra ráno = tomorrow morning
• včera večer = yesterday evening
• dnes večer = this evening

So dnes večer is completely normal and natural.

You may also hear dneska večer in spoken Czech, where dneska is a more colloquial version of dnes.

Czech word order is much more flexible than English word order, because endings show grammatical relationships.

The sentence:

Dnes večer chci jít s tebou do kina.

is a very natural, neutral order.

But other orders are also possible, with slightly different emphasis:

• Chci dnes večer jít s tebou do kina.
• S tebou chci dnes večer jít do kina.
• Do kina chci dnes večer jít s tebou.

These do not all sound equally neutral. Usually, changing the order changes what is emphasized.

For a learner, the original version is a good, natural model.

Because Czech does not use a separate word like English to before infinitives.

The verb jít is already in the infinitive form, so:

• chci jít = I want to go
• musím pracovat = I must work
• můžu přijít = I can come

In Czech, the infinitive is just the verb form itself. No extra word is needed.

No. Tebou is only one case form of ty.

Some common forms are:

• ty = you (subject)
• tebe / tě = you
• tobě / ti = to you
• tebou = with you / by you

So tebou is specifically the instrumental form used here after s.

Also, this sentence uses the informal singular you. If you were speaking formally or to more than one person, you would use a different form:

• s vámi = with you (formal or plural)

No. They mean different things because they show movement toward a place versus location in a place.

• do kina = to the cinema
  
  • movement toward it
• v kině = in the cinema
  
  • being there

So:

• Jdu do kina. = I’m going to the cinema.
• Jsem v kině. = I’m in the cinema.

This is a very common Czech contrast.

Yes. That is also correct.

Both are natural:

• Dnes večer chci jít s tebou do kina.
• Dnes večer chci jít do kina s tebou.

The difference is mostly about rhythm and emphasis. Putting s tebou earlier can slightly highlight with you, while the other version may sound a bit more like the destination do kina comes first in the flow.

In everyday Czech, both are perfectly acceptable.
