5.9 – vadit 'to bother'
The verb vadit ‘to bother’ is another important verb for you to learn. Like the verb líbit se, or the verb slušet, it will be used with the dative case (to make sense of it, you have to think of it being something like it is bothersome to you, or something like that).
Take a look at some of these sentences related to the weather:
