Why without articles?

[alik1989]

It's animals/ducks in general, so they would take the indefinite article in the singular. Since there is no plural indefinite article in English, they are omitted in this case.

[Aytacz]

Is kaczki plural here or dopelniacz ?

[Jellei]

What do you mean by 'plural or dopełniacz'? These are different things...

Of course it's plural, and as the case is concerned, it's Accusative. It's like "He likes animals" (Accusative), and "especially he likes ducks" (still Accusative).

[Aytacz]

Of course they are different things.
But in the other hand plural and dopelniacz form of "kaczka" are the same (kaczki) , isn't it ?

[Jellei]

the Nominative (mianownik) plural "kaczki" is the same as Accusative (biernik) plural.

How often does Polish use Object-Verb-Subject word order instead of the usual Subject-Verb-Object? Can you give me an example proszę? Dzięki.

[Okcydent]

I came across an opinion that the number of SVO to any other word order in Polish is like 9:1 or even bigger.

Example of O(S)V:

Kaczkę chciał, kaczkę dostanie. He wanted a duck so he will receive one.

Or something like this - not exactly OVS but not SVO either:
Głupi jest, głupi był, głupi pozostanie.

He is stupid, he was stupid and he will remain stupid.

Maybe this answer isn't quite close, but can you say
"my son likes animals, ducks in particular"?

[Jellei]

Seems quite close to me. Added.

[Achim349471]

Adding didn't work - "my son likes animals, in particular ducks" was not accepted in June 2020

[Jellei]

What I added was a different word order, "ducks in particular". But from what I understand, yours is correct as well - added now.

Very political sentence. ;-)
