Questions & Answers about Taj način je najbolji.

Why is it taj način and not ta način or to način?

Because način is a masculine singular noun, and the demonstrative taj has to agree with it in gender, number, and case.

• taj = masculine singular
• ta = feminine singular
• to = neuter singular

So:

• taj način = that way / that method
• ta knjiga = that book
• to mesto = that place

In this sentence, način is in the nominative singular, so taj is also nominative singular masculine.
