Interesting how you can express the future with the present tense. I'm wondering if the reverse is also possible. Can you ever use a perfective verb to express something in the present?
Actually, we can. For example, when we talk about the daily routine, we can commonly use perfective verbs, which is interesting: Každé ráno _vstanu_ a _uvařím si_ kávu (simply enumerating the chores) Or in the reporting verb after the direct speech: "Jak jsi na to přišel?" _zeptá se_ Monika a _změří si_ mě pohledem.
Very helpful! When using Chystat se, plánovat, are they followed by either the perfective or imperfective? If so, does which one you use depend on the context? Děkuji!
This is a great question. They can be followed by either one: Zítra _se chystám / plánuju_ *učit se* češtinu. - Tomorrow I'm planning on studying Czech. Zítra _se chystám / plánuju_ *naučit se* akuzativ. - Tomorrow I'm planning on learning the accusative case. Zítra plánuju *vstát* brzo. - Tomorrow I'm planning on getting up early. Příští týden plánuju *vstávat* brzo. - Next week I'm planning on getting up early. (repetition)
