Language: Pronouns/Determiners

Pronouns and determiners play a crucial role in the Croatian language as they provide information about the nouns they modify or replace. Pronouns are used to replace nouns in a sentence, while determiners help to specify or quantify the noun they accompany.

Croatian pronouns include personal pronouns (ja – I, ti – you, on/ona/ono – he/she/it), possessive pronouns (moj – mine, tvoj – yours, njen – hers), demonstrative pronouns (ovaj – this, onaj – that), and interrogative pronouns (tko – who, što – what). They agree in gender, number, and case with the noun they replace.

Determiners in Croatian include articles (definite – the, indefinite – a/an), possessive determiners (moj – my, tvoj – your, njen – her), demonstrative determiners (ovaj – this, onaj – that), and quantifiers (malo – few, mnogo – many). They also agree with the noun in gender, number, and case.

Understanding pronouns and determiners is essential when learning how to form coherent sentences and properly modify nouns in Croatian.
