9.5 – Komu zavolám? Komu napíšu zprávu?

Around the holidays (or COVID-19 for that matter), we can’t always see our family and friends. There are of course other ways we stay in touch, such as calling or writing:

volat / zavolat – to call

telefonovat / zatelefonovat – to telephone

psát / napsat – to write

posílat / poslat – to send

One can write or send any of the following:

• esemeska – sms, text message
• zpráva – message
• e-mail

As you can see with these examples above, these verbs are followed by the dative case, since the person to whom you send something, write something, or call to is the indirect object:

 Dative (komu, čemu)
