"Ona widzi tamto stare zwierzę."

Translation: She sees that old animal.

[akatsukiaashish]

Polish spellings are nightmare!

[KEREM1990]

she sees that old animal but in polish ona widzi tamto starą zwierzę

[immery]

what is the problem ? ( other than STARE)

[AlanGair]

Why not zwierzęta? Is it not Accusative after 'She sees' or does tamto affect it?

[AlanGair]

Or is it now indirect?

[Jellei]

It is Accusative, but it's one animal (that old animal), and not many. "zwierzęta" is plural, "zwierzę" is singular.

[AlanGair]

I think i was overdoing it and got confused. I realised my mistake after. Read up on Accusative case and only just realised neuter accusatives are identical to nominatives. That's useful to know!

[DinoRaptor76]

Tamto / To vs Tamten / Ten vs Tamtego / Tego ( please explain ? )

[AlexeyShah]

Can anyone briefly explain when r -> rz (stare -> starzy )

[Jellei]

When we learn orthography, we rather talk about "rz wymienne na r" (so situations when rz turns into r in another form), to distinguish the words written with rz from those written with ż.

I'd say that what you're asking about happens in the 'masculine personal' forms. Those forms are always kinda different, softened. So for example 'wysoki' turns into 'wysocy', 'młody' into 'młodzi', and 'stary' into 'starzy'.
