I think I aced my Czech final

Ok, by all rights, I know I can say I aced my Czech final exam. hehe I did find a few mistakes on my once-over, and DAMN, the declension of enumerated nouns is confusing. I can't remember if I should only decline the number as per the verb or preposition, and then make the noun decline per the number's rules, or if I should decline both the number and the noun exactly as the verb or preposition requires.

e.g. Slyšela jsem o pěti aut. (noun declines as number commands)

or Slyšela jsem o pěti autech. (noun declines as preposition commands)

I chose the former, because it was weirder. heheh (good choice when it comes to Czech)

Our professor said that this confuses the hell out of native speaker Czech students, too :-)

And THAT'S ALL FOLKS...I've completed two years of formal Czech instruction! From here on out, I'm on my own, to continue learning Czech....

school, cestina, czech
