In the sentence 'Kniha leží na stole', which case does the noun stole (from stôl, table) show?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Locative

  1. Step 1: The preposition na can take the locative or the accusative. Step 2. Here the book is lying somewhere, so the question is 'where?', and the locative of stôl is stole. Answer: locative. Why not the others: The accusative would be na stôl (movement), and the genitive and dative have other forms and uses.
