Infinitives in Serbian[edit | edit source]

In Serbian, the infinitive form of the verb is used to indicate the action of the verb without specifying the subject of the sentence. The infinitive form is also used after some prepositions, conjunctions, and verbs.

Formation of the Infinitive[edit | edit source]

The infinitive in Serbian is formed by taking the root of the verb and adding the suffix "-ti". For example:

Serbian Pronunciation North Azerbaijani
govoriti /ɡɔ̌vɔriti/ говорити
pisati /pǐsati/ писати
raditi /rǎditi/ радити
živeti /ʒǐvɛːti/ живети

Usage of the Infinitive[edit | edit source]

The infinitive in Serbian can be used in the following ways:

  • As the subject of the sentence:

Example: Pisati je moj hobi. (Writing is my hobby.)

  • As the object of the sentence:

Example: Volim čitati knjige. (I love reading books.)

  • After prepositions:

Example: Idem da vidim prijatelja. (I'm going to see a friend.)

  • After conjunctions:

Example: Želim da idem na more, ali nemam novca. (I want to go to the sea, but I don't have the money.)

  • After certain verbs:

Example: Moram da učim za ispit. (I have to study for the exam.)

Negation of the Infinitive[edit | edit source]

To form the negative infinitive in Serbian, you simply add "ne" before the infinitive form of the verb. For example:

Serbian Pronunciation North Azerbaijani
govoriti /ɡɔ̌vɔriti/ не говорити
pisati /pǐsati/ не писати
raditi /rǎditi/ не радити
živeti /ʒǐvɛːti/ не живети

Example: Ne želim da idem u školu. (I don't want to go to school.)
