Mohu dostat účtenku?

When to use

Ask for this at the point of sale if you need a written record of your transaction, for returns, expenses, or your own tracking.

How it works

This is a polite request using the modal verb 'moci' (can/may) in the first-person singular, followed by the perfective verb 'dostat' (to get) and the noun 'účtenku' (receipt).

• Mohu: I can/may
• dostat: to get (perfective infinitive)
• účtenku: receipt (feminine noun, accusative singular)

Register and Formality

The phrase 'Mohu dostat...' is a polite and standard way to request something. As a first-person verb, it does not encode the listener's formality (ty/vy).

Grammar Notes

The verb 'dostat' is perfective, indicating the completion of receiving the receipt. 'Účtenka' (receipt) is a feminine noun, and 'účtenku' is its accusative form, as it is the direct object of the verb.
