    Ahoj Everybody [​IMG]

    Ja jsem zmateny...

    I'm trying to figure out how to use 'jeste ne' and 'uz ne' in future tense. Can someone please tell me if I'm saying these right:

    "I won't do it then" = "Jeste to nebudu delat"

    "I wouldn't know it then" = "Jeste to vedel(a) nebym" - Is the (a) FOR a woman speaker, or when I SAY IT TO a woman?

    "I won't love you then" = "Jeste Ti nebudu milovat"

    "I wouldn't love you then" = "Jeste Ti miloval(a) nebym"

    Boli me z toho hlava LOL...

    Dekuji Pekne.

    Well, it is much easier...
    "ještě ne" = not yet
    "už ne" = any more

    Už to nebudu dělat = I will not do it anymore
    Ještě to nebudu dělat = I will not do it yet

    I will not do it then = takže (z toho důvodu)to nebudu dělat

    Ještě bych tě nemiloval(a) = I would not love you yet
    Už bych tě nemiloval(a) = I would not love you anymore

    I hope it will help [​IMG]

    Ahoj Shawn!

    Pokusím se ti pomoct [​IMG]


    First of all let's translate "ještě ne" and "už ne".

    Ještě ne = not yet
    Už ne = not anymore

    So I think you need to translate that "then" as "tak" in your senteces.

    I won't do it then = Tak to neudělám

    <I>In this case, I believe, you need to use the perfective verb "udělat" and not "dělat" (imperfective). Perfective verbs express one time finished actions. To nebudu dělat means
    "I won?t be doing it"</I>

    I wouldn't know it then = Tak to bych nevědel (male speaker)

    I won't love you then = Tak tě nebudu milovat

    I wouldn't love you then = tak bych tě nemiloval

    I'm not a native speaker of Czech so please take my explanation and translations with due reserve. I'm sure someone can give more detailed information.

    Měj se!
