8.7 – Review of Prepositions for Motion
Remember the following prepositions to say that you are going to a place in Czech. You will use one of the following prepositions:
do GEN
na ACC
if you use this preposition for location |
|
then use this preposition for destination |
v LOC |
→ |
do GEN |
na LOC |
→ |
na ACC |
What this chart says is that if you would normally use v LOC to say ‘in, at’ a place, then use do GEN to say ‘to’. Likewise, if you would use na LOC to say ‘on, at’ a place, then still use na ACC to say ‘to’ (i.e. the difference between ‘on, at’ and ‘to’ with the preposition na stems from what case follows the preposition).
If you need a reminder about these prepositions (worth taking a look at this again) see 8.3 – Prepositions v and na.
