Questions & Answers about Я против таких изменений в расписании.
Why is против followed by the genitive case таких изменений?
The preposition против always takes the genitive case to express opposition. Whatever you are against must be in the genitive:
- против нового закона (against the new law)
- против любых ограничений (against any restrictions)
Why do we say таких изменений instead of этих изменений?
Both are grammatically correct but have different nuances:
- этих изменений = “these changes” (points to specific, known changes)
- таких изменений = “such changes” (comments on the kind or nature of the changes, often with a negative tone)
Why is изменений in the plural genitive?
- The noun изменение means “change.” Here the speaker refers to multiple changes, so the plural form is used.
- After против, you need the genitive plural. The genitive plural of изменение is изменений.
