Abstract

The paper analyses transitive verbs which are used in questions formed by question word kamo. These verbs are compared to the verbs of motion. The author attempts to explain why the adverb kamo appears with this class of verbs instead of adverb gdje. The conclusion drawn from this research is that the semantics of goal is the main indicator that the adverb kamo must be used.

Keywords

adverbs kamo and gdje; semantics of goal of motion; verbs of motion
