💡

Keep it simple

Don't overthink the grammar. Just use Tko for people and Što for things.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Interrogative Pronouns: Tko? Što? (Who? What?)
💡

Check the Noun

Always look at the noun first. If it's feminine, your question word must end in -a.
frontend.learn_grammar.from_rule: Interrogative Pronouns: Koji? Kakav? Čiji? (Which? What kind? Whose?)
💡

Focus on the Verb

Always check what case the verb requires. This will tell you which pronoun form to use.

Review Summary

  • Tko/Što + verb

자주 하는 실수

Confusing interrogative 'Koji' with demonstrative 'Ovaj'. Use 'Koji' only for questions.

Wrong: Koji je ovo stol?
정답: Ovaj stol je moj.

Using 'Tko' (who) for an object instead of 'Što' (what).

Wrong: Tko je to jabuka?
정답: Što je to jabuka?

Demonstratives must match noun gender. 'Knjiga' is feminine, so use 'Ova'.

Wrong: Ovaj knjiga je dobra.
정답: Ova knjiga je dobra.
