Adverb
Adverbs are formed
from adjectives by means of -o: Lepo govori! He speaks beautifully!
Formation with po is also quite common: Po slovensko (domacce)
govori, ( he speaks Slovene).
Of great importance are the adverbs from the pronouns: kda'j
- "when"; seda'j - "now", tedaj
- "then", kam - "where", sém - "here",
tja' - "there", etc.
Prepositions

prepositions are important because they govern the form of the nouns,
pronouns and adjectives following them.
