Questions & Answers about Czy twoje wyniki są na biurku?
Why is the word for "your" twoje here instead of twój or twoi?
Twoje is the plural form of "your" used for non-masculine-personal nouns in the Nominative case. Because wyniki (results) is plural, we can't use the singular twój. And because it's not a group of male people, we use twoje instead of the masculine-personal form twoi.
I thought wynik was a masculine noun. Why doesn't it use the masculine-personal form twoi in the plural?
You are right that wynik is masculine, but it is an inanimate object. In the plural, Polish lumps masculine inanimate, feminine, and neuter nouns all together into the "non-masculine-personal" category. Only groups containing male people get the special masculine-personal forms like twoi.
Why does biurko change to biurku?
We are expressing a location ("on the desk"), so the preposition na requires the Locative case. For neuter nouns ending in -ko (like biurko), the Locative ending is -ku.
