Questions & Answers about Nasze biuro jest na piątym piętrze.

Why is it nasze and not nasz or nasza?

Because biuro is a neuter singular noun, and nasz changes to match the noun’s gender, number, and case.

In the nominative singular:

• nasz = masculine
• nasza = feminine
• nasze = neuter

So:

• nasz dom = our house
• nasza szkoła = our school
• nasze biuro = our office

How do I know that biuro is neuter?

In Polish, many nouns ending in -o are neuter, and biuro is one of them.

So its basic form is:

• to biuro = this is an office

That neuter gender affects other words that go with it, such as:

• nasze biuro
• dobre biuro
• nowe biuro

Why is jest included? Can Polish leave out is here?
