I’ve been trying to figure out the context for the dative case for quite some time now. This video helps tremendously and you simplified the dative case clearly. Hvala puno!
Spanish native speakers or learners should be actually familiar with this concept, “svidja mi se” is literally translated to Spanish as “me gusta” where “me” is receiver, so to speak. Great lesson
Constructing complex sentences is ahead of my learning level but I understood the concept you're explaining here and svida mi se 😅. I'm finding one of the most interesting things about learning another language is the way that it makes me think about how my native language (English) works.
@@catalinilie306 Hi, yes, genitive also expresses possession. Different cases can have the same function. For example, you can say ‘Ovo je drugo dete mog brata’ (= This is my brother’s second child; ‘mog brata’ is genitive) and you can also say ‘Mom bratu je ovo drugo dete.’ (= This is my brother’s second child; ‘mom bratu’ is dative). We achieved the same meaning with two different cases :)
Hvala!!!

@@Alice_Walker Yes, slažem se (=I agree)! New languages open up new perspectives onto other people but also ourselves.
Isn't it genitive case that expresses possesion?
