Questions & Answers about Спасибо за вашу заботу, у меня больше не болит живот.
Why are we using the Accusative case in за вашу заботу?
When expressing gratitude or exchange, such as after спасибо (thank you), the preposition за always takes the Accusative case. Since забота (care) is a feminine noun, it changes to заботу, and the pronoun ваша matches it as вашу.
How does the phrase больше не work here to mean 'no longer'?
In Russian, больше means 'more' and не is 'not'. When placed together before a verb, as in больше не болит (literally 'more not hurts'), they form the standard Russian phrase for 'no longer' or 'not anymore'.
Why use у меня here instead of just saying мой живот (my stomach)?
While you could technically say мой живот больше не болит, Russian strongly prefers the у меня (literally 'by me' or 'I have') construction when talking about body parts, illnesses, or physical states.
Is живот the object of the sentence since it comes at the very end?
No, живот (stomach) is actually the subject in the Nominative case! In Russian, the body part that aches is the subject doing the action of hurting (болит). Putting it at the end of the sentence is just a natural way to emphasize the new or most important information.
