ovému

ovému is a Czech word that serves as the dative singular masculine/neuter form of the demonstrative pronoun "on," meaning "he," "it," or "that." In Czech grammar, the dative case is used to indicate the indirect object of a verb or the recipient of an action or feeling. Therefore, "ovému" translates to "to him," "to it," or "to that," depending on the context.

For example, in the sentence "Dal jsem knihu ovému," the word "ovému" refers to "to him" or "to that one" as the recipient of the book. The pronoun "on" itself is used for masculine nouns and can also refer to animate or inanimate masculine objects. When used in the dative singular with the masculine or neuter gender, "on" becomes "ovému." Understanding cases and pronoun declensions is crucial for correct sentence construction in Czech.
