"Can you see her parents' house?"

Translation: Vidíte dům jejích rodičů?

[2200Lucia60]

Is there not a mistake? jejich is poss. pron. 3th person plural, Engl. "their". Shouldn't the English translation be Can you see their parents' house? ??

[tatka_]

Not "jejich" (their) but "jejích" (her) with long "í".

Possessive pronoun její:

Thanks Tatka for answering so rapidly. So I was missing another series of declensions. I'll add it to the many others and I'll try to apply this one too ( but that's the hard part!! )

Why is not allowed vidiš jejich rodičů dům

[tatka_]

Because of word order. It sounds unnaturally. Correct is "Vidíš dům jejich rodičů?"

[mizail]

Can I say Vidíte dům její rodičů

[endless_sleeper]

No, parents are plural, you need to use the plural here.

Why can you not have můžeš vidít for "can you see?" rather than vidíš which is "do you see?"

[AgnusOinas]

We just don't use "moct" (can) together with verbs of perception. It would literally mean "are you able to see" and it's pretty much redundant in any situation, since the perception verb (like "vidět" or "slyšet") automatically implies being able to (perceive).
