Questions & Answers about Porada začne v osm.
What does porada mean exactly? Is it the same as any kind of meeting?
Porada usually means a meeting, especially a work meeting, staff meeting, briefing, or consultation. It often sounds a bit more practical or businesslike than a very general English meeting.
So it is not usually a casual social get-together. In many contexts, it suggests that people are meeting to discuss work, plans, or decisions.
What case is porada in here?
Porada is in the nominative singular because it is the subject of the sentence — it is the thing that will start.
You can think of the structure as:
- Porada = the meeting
- začne = will start
- v osm = at eight
So porada stays in its basic dictionary form here.
Why is the verb začne and not začíná?
