Please explain why I must use “toto” instead of “tato”. I thought the first part of “this” had to match the gender of the subject it describes. Would “tahle” also be incorrect?
This one is tricky. We could use: ’’Tohle je slovenská vesnice, která byla předtím na Moravě.’’ and it would be OK if there was no historical timeframe. Even more natural would be: ’’Tohle je slovenská vesnice, která byla kdysi na Moravě’’ but that is not exactly the same since ’’kdysi’’ is more vague and more like ’’back in the day’’.
