* a in plural form changes to e
* e,o in plural form changes to a
* everything else gets suffix i
There are possible exceptions from rule above like: уво - уши (ear) ; око - очи (eye)

Serbian language also have genitive plural, that makes that there are even 2 and in some cases 3 plural forms. Genitive plural is used in counting, from numbers 2-4 have one form, and starting from 5 have another form. Some genitive plurals are same as singular, but with different accent. During counting, with numbers that ends with 1 (exception in '''11''', 1'''11''', 2'''11''', 54'''11'''...), noun is always in singular form. Other number endings (except for 11-19) apply rule from genitive plural.

== Regular question ==
Question is very similar like regular sentence. Key word that marks sentence is "ли", what is always positioned as second word in sentence.

The most grammar correct question start with "да ли ...", but there are also form where verb goes at first place (имаш ли...? - have you ...?).

Another form of question what is used in colloquial speech is confirmative form of verb be (јесам, јеси): јеси ли....?

[2] In this case, question can't be formed with verb + form. But it is possible to make question with "finished" form of verb make (направити): Она је направила колач - Направи ли она колач?

== Question with negation ==
This form of questions is rarely used. It can be formed with "зар" + negative form of verb be (нисам, ниси, није). Another form is negative "be" + ли.

Зар ниси у школи? - Ниси ли у школи? - Haven't you in school?

[2] In this case, question can't be formed with verb + form. But it is possible to make question with "finished" form of verb make (направити): Она је направила колач - Направи ли она колач?

The Verb "to be " (Glagol '''biti''')

==Present Tense (Sadašnje vreme)==

Now we will learn how to conjugate the verb '''''biti''''' ("to be") in the present tense.

|-
|'''Ja sam'''
|I am

|'''Vi niste'''

|-
|'''Oni su'''

|-
|'''Ona su'''

|}
<nowiki>**</nowiki> notes: " Ti" is informal. Don't say " ti " to older people, or people who you don't know. For this purpose we use " Vi " ( the plural form of you) So, politely said: " Who are you" ? would be: Ko ste Vi? For building the negative form, just add the prefix "'''ni'''-" to the present form.
