EtymologyEdit
From Proto-Slavic *vamъ.
PronunciationEdit
PronounEdit
вам • (vam) (personal)
- (dated) full form of the second-person plural pronoun in the dative case, used as the indirect object of a verb; to you, for you, you
- Вам двамата съобщиха ли новината?
- Vam dvamata sǎobštiha li novinata?
- Was the news communicated to you two?
Usage notesEdit
The full dative form is considered outdated and is usually substituted by the preposition на (na) and the accusative form:
- На вас двамата съобщиха ли новината?
- Na vas dvamata sǎobštiha li novinata?
- Did they inform you two of the news?
