"Ano, ty psy vidím."

Translation: Yes, I see the dogs.

[Ruby56531]

when to use "ti psi" and when "ty psy"?..

[BoneheadBass]

Ti psi is nominative case (subject of the sentence), while ty psy is accusative case (object of the sentence).

[tenpenny2]

In speech is there any difference at all in pronunciation?

Might be an odd idea but I'd really like to see the direct English translations. Rather than the above, "Yes, I see the dogs." it looks like it would directly translate to "Yes, you dog I see."
Always joked with the girlfriend when she translated stuff that she sounded like a medieval knight yet the more I try to learn the more I see why.
Is there any chance of an option for this sort of thing?
Oh and fantastic course! Again.

That translation would require different interpunction: "Ano ty, psy vidím. " and then it could probably be: "Yes you, I see the dogs."

[A_purrfect_cat]

You read the 'ty' as 'you' , but here it means 'the'. So the Word by Word translation would make it "yes, the dogs i see"

[28IK9RMm]

By "direct", I think you mean "literal" translation. Maybe the idea below about explaining the difference between the two possible meanings of "ty" would help clarify it for the learner better than a literal translation would. I am not in favor of literal translations.

I wrote 'Yes, you see the dogs'. I'm assuming that it's coming from 'Ty jsi' - 'You are'. What mistake did I make?

[VladaFu]

"ty psy" - '"the dogs"

(já) vidím - I see

[im.Andrew]

and "ty vidíš" - you see

[SurendraSi890226]

Why can't use psi here

[VladaFu]

Please read the existing discussion before asking.

Because they are the direct object, you need the accusative case.
