Questions & Answers about Komoda je savršeno stabilna.

What does komoda mean here?

Komoda usually means a chest of drawers, dresser, or sometimes a cabinet-like piece of furniture, depending on context.

In this sentence, it most likely means a dresser/chest of drawers.

It is a feminine noun in Serbian.

Why is there je in the sentence?

Je means is.

It is the 3rd person singular form of the verb biti (to be), so:

• komoda = the dresser / chest of drawers
• je = is
• savršeno stabilna = perfectly stable

So the structure is very similar to English:
The dresser is perfectly stable.

Why is stabilna and not stabilan or stabilno?

Because stabilna has to agree with komoda.

In Serbian, adjectives change their form to match the noun’s:

• gender
• number
• case

Here, komoda is:

• feminine
• singular
• nominative

So the adjective must also be feminine singular nominative:

• masculine: stabilan
• feminine: stabilna
• neuter: stabilno

That is why the sentence uses stabilna.
