Questions & Answers about Na mom krevetu su farmerke i čarape koje sada tražim.

Why is it na mom krevetu? What case is krevetu?

Krevetu is in the locative singular.

The preposition na can take different cases depending on meaning:

• na + locative = location, on / at
• na + accusative = movement toward something, onto / to

So:

• Na mom krevetu su farmerke. = The jeans are on my bed.
• Stavljam farmerke na moj krevet. = I am putting the jeans onto my bed.

Here the sentence describes where the clothes are, so Serbian uses na + locative.

Why is it mom, not moj?

Because mom has to agree with krevetu.

Moj is the basic dictionary form, but adjectives and possessive words change for case, gender, and number.

Since krevetu is:

• masculine
• singular
• locative

the possessive becomes mom:

• moj krevet = my bed
• na mom krevetu = on my bed

You may also hear mojem in some styles:

• na mojem krevetu

Both are correct, but mom is very common and natural.
