1st or FEMININE DECLENSION

of Croatian language Feminine declension is the easiest one. Although we have 7 cases, two of them are the same (dative=locative) and one is rarely used. However, the rarely used one (Vocative case) is used mostly when we argue and swear (obviously, you need to call someone [put the bad word]). There are few exceptions for endings for noun declension and for adjective declension, so I will add case like blue water) (plava voda) at the same time in table so you can learn it together like a lyrics. And there are two declensions, where the 2nd one is used for female nouns only (adjectives use 1st declension) that end with a consonant (and these words are rare, I will write you the most used ones). The examples were in 1st(a) declension are voda (water) and plava (blue). For the rare declension, well be using noun no (night)

consonant-declension Sg. N G noi D noi A *V

I noi

Sg. N plava voda G plave vode D plavoj vodi A plavu vodu I plavom vodom *V plava vodo!

Pl. N plave vode G plavih voda D plavim vodama A plave vode I plavim vodama *V plave vode
As you can see, adjectives change ending in only few cases. You can practice with plava no (blue night), declinate articles using their declension and no using its consonant declension. You use -a declension for all nouns ending with -a. Examples of consonant nouns (you just have to know them) are: mast (fat) ki,pl. keri (daughter) *And abstract nouns that end with -ost (ovisnost, tonost) *And singular form of collective nouns that end with -ad
