Pokvaren tuš curi.

• pokvaren = broken, faulty
• tuš = shower
• curi = leaks, is leaking, drips

So grammatically:

• pokvaren tuš = broken shower
• curi = the verb, in 3rd person singular present

The subject is tuš, and pokvaren describes it.

Because Serbian does not have articles.

English says a shower or the shower, but Serbian usually just says tuš and lets context tell you whether it is definite or indefinite.

So Pokvaren tuš curi. could mean:

• A broken shower is leaking
• The broken shower is leaking

Context decides.

Because it agrees with tuš.

Here, tuš is:

• masculine
• singular
• nominative (because it is the subject)

So the adjective also appears in a masculine singular nominative form: pokvaren.

This is basic adjective agreement in Serbian: adjectives match the noun in gender, number, and case.

It is in the nominative case.

Why? Because tuš is the subject of the verb curi.

A simple way to think of it:

• What is leaking?
• The shower

So tuš is the subject, and subjects normally appear in the nominative.

Because Serbian does not have a separate grammatical continuous/progressive form like English is leaking.

The present tense curi can cover both:

• The shower leaks
• The shower is leaking

Which one is meant depends on context.

This is very common in Serbian. The present tense often translates into either English simple present or present continuous.

The dictionary form is curiti.

So:

• curiti = to leak, to drip
• curi = he/she/it leaks, is leaking

In this sentence, curi agrees with tuš, which is singular.

No. pokvaren has a wider range of meanings, depending on context.

It can mean things like:

• broken / faulty for objects
• spoiled for food
• corrupt / nasty / badly behaved for people

In Pokvaren tuš curi., it clearly means broken or faulty.

Not completely, but this order is natural.

Pokvaren tuš curi. is a normal way to say The broken shower is leaking.

A few useful notes:

• The adjective usually comes before the noun: pokvaren tuš
• Serbian word order is more flexible than English
• Changing the order often changes emphasis, not basic meaning

For example, Tuš curi. simply means The shower is leaking, without mentioning that it is broken.

Yes, it is understandable and natural.

That said, depending on context, a native speaker might also say:

• Tuš curi. = The shower is leaking.
• Tuš je pokvaren. = The shower is broken.
• Tuš je pokvaren i curi. = The shower is broken and leaking.

So Pokvaren tuš curi. is fine, but in everyday speech people may sometimes split the information into two shorter statements.

A rough guide:

• tuš ≈ toosh
• curi ≈ TSU-ree

Important sound notes:

• š sounds like English sh
• c in Serbian sounds like ts, not like English k or s
• r in Serbian is usually a tapped or rolled r

So the whole sentence is roughly:

POK-va-ren toosh TSU-ree

Usually tuš means shower in a general sense, especially the shower fixture or shower setup.

Depending on context, it may refer loosely to:

• the shower as a whole
• the shower unit
• the shower spray/device

If someone wants to be more specific, Serbian can use more precise words for parts, but tuš is the normal everyday word here.

Yes. curiti is a very common verb for liquids leaking, dripping, or running.

For example, it can be used with:

• slavina curi = the faucet is leaking
• krov curi = the roof leaks
• nos mi curi = my nose is running

So in this sentence, curi is exactly the kind of verb Serbian normally uses for a leaking shower.
