Questions & Answers about Mój szef planuje nowy projekt na jutro.

Why do we say Mój szef instead of Moja or Moje szef?

In Polish, possessive pronouns agree with the gender, number, and case of the noun they modify. Here szef is masculine singular, so the correct form is mój. You would use moja for a feminine noun (e.g., moja siostra) and moje for a neuter noun (e.g., moje dziecko).

What case is nowy projekt, and why doesn’t it change after the verb planować?

Nowy projekt is the direct object of planować, so it takes the accusative case. However, masculine inanimate nouns have identical forms in the nominative and accusative. That is why nowy projekt remains unchanged. If it were a masculine animate noun (e.g., pies), you would see a change (nominative pies, accusative psa).

Why is na jutro used here instead of just jutro at the beginning?

Placing jutro at the start—Jutro mój szef planuje nowy projekt—means “Tomorrow my boss is going to plan a new project.” Using na jutro—planuje … na jutro—means “he is planning the new project for tomorrow” (i.e., the project’s intended start or deadline is tomorrow). The preposition na + accusative expresses purpose or allocation in time.
