Questions & Answers about Zacznijmy dzisiaj najtrudniejsze zadanie.
How is zacznijmy (let's start) formed in this sentence?
It is the first-person plural imperative. You take the command form for a single person, which is zacznij (start!), and add the ending -my to make it mean "let's start".
Why does the word for "the most difficult" (najtrudniejsze) end in -e?
It is matching the neuter noun zadanie (task). The masculine dictionary form is trudny (difficult). To make it neuter, it becomes trudne. The comparative is trudniejsze (more difficult), and adding the prefix naj- gives us the superlative najtrudniejsze (the most difficult).
What case is najtrudniejsze zadanie in?
It is in the accusative case because it is the direct object of the verb (it is the thing we are starting). Since zadanie is a neuter noun, its accusative form looks exactly the same as its nominative (dictionary) form.
Why do we use zacznijmy instead of zaczynajmy?
Zacznijmy comes from the perfective verb zacząć, which focuses on the result of getting the action started. Zaczynajmy comes from the imperfective zaczynać and would mean something closer to "let's get to starting" or "let's start (repeatedly)." For a single, specific task, the perfective is much more natural.
