Kam jel Karel? Karel vyjel z garáže. Karel projel vodou Karel projel tunelu Karel vyjel kopec Karel sejel kopec Karel přejel mostem Karel zajel voda http://uk.cars.yahoo.com/13112009/36/ma ... lak-0.html (karel has lots of cars and is sometimes invisible and/or female) I'm sure i made a lot of mistakes here with cases especially..
All the prefixes are correct. But verbal rections and aspects are wrong. Nikam, Karel nese asi čaj. Nevyjel. Nebo vyjel, ale pak zase zajel zpět. You can’t use the perfective aspect unless the action is accomplished. This action is definitely not accomplished because the car is still in the garage. Teprve projíždí. Once again, aspect. Buď Karel couval, nebo tunelem teprve projede. (Aspect!) verbal rection: projet + instrumental projet + accusative To se ještě uvidí! (Aspect!) Ješte ne. (Aspect!) Vždyť je pořád na mostě. (Aspect!) verbal rection: přejet most přejet přes most přejet po mostě zajet vodu = run a water over (like “run a dog over”) Either with cases, or verbal rection. (Only you can say.) All the prefixed forms of the verb “jet” can use a direct object in accusative. The object is inseparable with the action – it can’t be used on its own. It often has some idiomatic meaning besides of the basic movement. When used for the basic movement the verb with the direct object has rather the meaning “to negotiate an obstacle”: projet tunel = to negotiate through a tunnel vyjet kopec = to negotiate a hill (uphill) sjet kopec = to negotiate a hill (downhill) přejet most = to negotiate a bridge The other option is to use an adverbial of place (or of direction). The adverbial is an additional information which could be separated from the verb and is in no way specific for the verb - you can (but needn’t) use it with all verbs of motion. This way is typically more natural: projet tunelem vyjet do kopce / na kopec sjet z/s kopce přejet přes most / po mostě Here, the mere instrumental means “through/via the inside of something”, so you can’t use it with a bridge unless there is some tube in it (like Prague Metro in the Nusle Bridge). I guess all the other adverbials of place (direction) are prepositional phrases or mere adverbs.
