Accusative adjectives and 'my...'

QuestionAnswer
Nouns, verbs and adjectives
()
Nouns are thing words, they can either be people, places or things: Cat, America, David, sorrow, hamburger... ; Verbs are actions: to knit, do dance, to fight, to love, to run... ; Adjectives are description words: Red, big, ugly, sad, quick, fat, powerful...
I'm eating a red apple
Jedem crvenu jabuku
If you want to put an adjective before a noun in accusative, you also gotta make the adjective accusative, and it's quite simple, just add a -u to the adjective, just how you add -u to the noun itself
I have red blood
Imam crvenu krv
'krv' is female, consider it an exception, yet the adjective still takes an -u
I have a black cat
Imam crnu mačku
I see a white dog
Vidim bijelog psa
For male nouns, the adjective gets -og in the accusative
I see the big wall
Vidim veliki zid
Inanimate nouns such as: wall, bottle, table, window get the '-i' ending, but animate nouns like: horse, dog, human, dinosaur, ghost, robot, worm all get '-og'
I'm driving a black car
Vozim crno auto
For neuter accusative adjectives, dont add anything
I see the yellow sun
Vidim žuto sunce
I see a brown horse
Vidim smeđeg konja
Animate MALE nouns (living things) get an '-a' in the accusative: Konja, dinosaura, čovjeka... Also, sometimes you will see -eg instead of -og like in the previous example sentence (If its one of those adjectives that end in -e when describing a neuter noun)
I see an ugly goblin
Vidim ružnog goblina
The horse is mine
Konj je moj
New useful word: moj (mine), it changes depending on gender of whatever it possesses: moj konj, moje auto, moja jabuka
My mom is waiting
Moja mama čeka
My car is broken
Moje auto je pokvareno
Moje - moj (neuter)
Ana is driving my brother to work
Ana vozi mog brata na posao
Gendered accusatives also apply to "moj"; in this instance, -og is added to "moj" somewhere in there... (note: there is also a distinction between animacy.) (note2: you can use mojeg instead of mog but its rare)
You know my wife (polite)
Poznajete moju ženu
moj - moju (feminine accusative); just add -u again lol
He is my friend
On je moj prijatelj
He sees my friend
On vidi mog prijatelja
I have a wife
Imam ženu
Imati - to have
I don't have a dog
Nemam psa
Nemati - to not have

Čekamo moju sestru
