"Kde je ten osel?"

Translation: Where is that donkey?

[_Valek_]

"Где этот осел" is quite rude in Russian :)

[AlexusD90]

Де є той осел? That is more similiar than Russian one.

[kurzeme]

Gdzie jest ten osioł? Not that similar. ;)

[Tuxfriend]

Now I need to find out when to use that sentence in my life.

[AgnusOinas]

Since "osel" can also mean "moron", you can easily use it when you're looking for a "friend" ;)

[DottyKincaid]

Difference between Osel and Osla? I cant get the extra help to work on my computer

[VladaFu]

nominative case/accusative case. You should read the Tips and notes or any other resource about grammatical cases (in general and in Czech).

[Yukohn]

Why "Where is this donkey" is wrong?

[AgnusOinas]

• "ten" means "that" (sometimes just "the" is enough)
• "tento" and "tenhle" mean "this"

[jasonfrenchuk]

Think it should be ass or donkey, not arse... :)

[kacenka9]

The system only has 'donkey' and 'ass'. Nothing else

[pb_eck]

Then there must be a bug in here - when you get it wrong, the system gives 'Where is the arse' as the correction. Arse is fairly vulgar British English for zadek!

[kacenka9]

not sure what else we can do

[Robert.1974]

Tak to prosím zadej Kačenko ten=the\that

[VladaFu]

Však to tak je. To arse si vymýšlí samo Duolingo, jako automatický ekvivalent každého ass, asi jim to přijde nějak užitečné.

[Chou117]

I know! It's just so funny to read the answer haha

[Jimmy302921]

I'll never need this word but kozel is used fairly frequently.

[dsjanta]

Well, "osel" is quite often used as an insult for people, so even if you do not use it yourself, it is good to know it, in case someone calls you that. :)

[LanaMack2]

How do I know when "ten" means "the" and when "that"?

[VladaFu]

Most often it can mean either.
