Rod imenice u mnozini · Plural patterns
U množini završeci često izgledaju drugačije nego u jednini.
In plural, endings can look different from singular patterns. This lesson gives you a practical map so you can identify gender quickly from common plural forms.
Focus on usage patterns, not perfect memorization. You will train both recognition and quick decision-making.

Muškim imenicama u množini često se dodaje nastavak -i ili -ovi.
