Questions & Answers about Mobilni operater ima roming i dopunu.

Why is it dopunu, not dopuna?

Because dopuna is the direct object of ima.

After imati in a sentence like this, the thing someone has is normally in the accusative case. For many feminine nouns that end in -a, the accusative singular ends in -u.

So:

• dopuna = nominative singular
• dopunu = accusative singular

That is why the sentence has ima dopunu.

Why does roming stay the same, while dopuna changes?

Roming is also a direct object, so it is also in the accusative. But masculine inanimate nouns often have the same form in the nominative and accusative singular.

So:

• roming = nominative singular
• roming = accusative singular

That is normal in Serbian.
Compare:

• telefon → imam telefon
• internet → imam internet

So both objects are in the same case, but they look different because they belong to different noun patterns.

What form is ima?

Ima is the 3rd person singular present tense of imati, which means to have.
