A. den dn-i, dn-y

V. dn-i dn-i, dn-ové

In the common expression ve dne, by day, it will be observed that another form is used in the locative.

Týden, a week (a compounded word), is thus declined:—

N. týden V. týden

This word is rarely used in the plural, neděle being employed in its stead.

bfemen-a

břemen

břemen-ům

břemen-a

břemen-a

břemen-y

ve břemen-ech.
