Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds

When an adjective describes a direct object, it must match the noun's gender and the accusative case ending.

  • Masculine inanimate nouns: Adjective stays the same as Nominative (e.g., 'novi auto').
  • Feminine nouns: Change -a to -u (e.g., 'lijepu kuću').
  • Neuter nouns: Adjective stays the same as Nominative (e.g., 'veliko selo').
Subject + Verb + [Adjective + Noun] (Accusative)

Meanings

This rule dictates how adjectives change their endings when they modify a noun that is the direct object of a verb.

1

Direct Object Modification

Used when the noun is the receiver of the action.

“Kupujem novi auto.”

“Trebam hladnu vodu.”

Accusative Adjective Endings

Gender Nominative Accusative
Masculine (Inanimate) novi novi
Masculine (Animate) novi novog
Feminine nova novu
Neuter novo novo
