What is the role of "to" in : "Jsou to tví muži." ? Is it optional ?

[VladaFu]

The "to" is essential. It is the subject of the sentence and corresponds to These, Those or They. With a singular verb it would be This, That or It.

This is the "to je" "je to" "to jsou" "jsou to" pattern you can meet in many sentences in this course.

Isn’t muži in nominative not accusative form unlike the sentence in English?

[ChristophS49077]

Both men and muži is in nominative

[Nemesis_NaR]

It is in Nominative indeed. Don't ask me why

why is "to muži jsou tví" wrong?

[VladaFu]

It is a very strange word order. Even if it were "Those men are yours." it is still strange.

For "They are your men." you should really keep "tví muži" together in the same way you keep "your men" together.

For other word order aspects, keep the SVO order unless you have a specific reason to use a different one.

[pma4w89A]

It seems to me also separating Jsou to and to jsou is not a good idea since they go together throughout the literature.

[VladaFu]

No, they do not. They can be separated without an issue if you follow other rules for clitics.

[LaynePierc1]

what is difference between oni jsou tvi muzi, why without oni

[VladaFu]

Oni can be used for stressing but is not needed.

[5LZiLniT]

Hello, could you also write, Jsou to tvoji muži? Am i wrong in thinking that tvoji and tví are interchangeable? Thank you

[endless_sleeper]

Interchangeable. "Tví" is somewhat more formal.
