Questions & Answers about Moja prijateljica sutra putuje vozom.
Why is it moja prijateljica and not moj prijateljica?
Because moja has to agree with prijateljica in gender, number, and case.
- prijateljica is feminine singular
- so the possessive adjective must also be feminine singular: moja
Compare:
- moj prijatelj = my male friend
- moja prijateljica = my female friend
- moje dete = my child
So moja is the feminine form of my here.
What exactly does prijateljica mean?
Prijateljica means female friend.
It is the feminine form of prijatelj = male friend / friend.
So:
- prijatelj = male friend
- prijateljica = female friend
In Serbian, this usually does not automatically mean girlfriend in the romantic sense. If you specifically want girlfriend, that is often devojka, depending on context.
Why is putuje in the present tense if the sentence says sutra meaning tomorrow?
