Past tense Exercises For Croatian Grammar

The past tense in Croatian grammar is used to describe actions or events that have occurred in the past. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb “biti” in its past tense form, combined with a past participle of the main verb. The past tense endings depend on the subject’s gender, number, and sometimes animacy. In this exercise, we will practice the past tense in Croatian grammar with two sets of sentences. Remember to use the English word in brackets as a cue to help you find the right answer. Good luck!
