Lesson 108. Adjectives Used as Nouns
In Serbian (just like in English), an adjective is often used in place of a noun:
mlada (млада)
— bride (lit. 'young one')
mladi (млади)
— young man, groom
dežurni (дежурни)
— person on duty
dobro (добро)
— good, goodness
staro (старо)
— the old thing
Mlada je lepa. (Млада је лепа.)
— The bride is beautiful.
It declines exactly like an adjective (by gender and case).
