Are you going to add Tips and Notes for this skill as well as some of the other skill that do not have any?

[Leo_Alshafei]

I hope they do soon..

In American English, "went looking" is probably better.

[Matt81406]

Why is "to search for" not accepted?

[VladaFu]

It is, you must always report the complete sentence.

[Pollyhs]

can sli be replaces with sly ?

[VladaFu]

No, because František is masculine animate.

[Pollyhs]

ok. if katerina was fist in the sentence , then could i have used sly then?

[VladaFu]

No, groups that include a member that is masculine animate use -li. It becomes more involved for other types of groups and in Czech it is explained at http://prirucka.ujc.cas.cz/?id=601 In English you will find the main points in textbooks and the basics also in our Tips and notes.

[Pollyhs]

okey dokey.

Why is "went" used enstead of "were going"? ŠIi usually refers to some moment in the past and continuous tense seems more appropriate
