When to use

Use this phrase when you've had a good conversation with someone new and wish to stay in touch. It's a polite way to suggest exchanging phone numbers, emails, or social media.

How it works

This is a polite question using the modal verb `moci` (can) in the 1st person plural, followed by the reflexive pronoun `si`, the infinitive `vyměnit` (to exchange), and the object `kontakty` (contacts).

  • Můžeme: The verb "moci" (can) in the 1st person plural present tense (we can).
  • si: A dative reflexive pronoun, often used with verbs of exchange or acquisition for oneself.
  • vyměnit: The perfective infinitive verb "to exchange."
  • kontakty: The plural noun "contacts" in the accusative case, as it is the direct object of "vyměnit."

Second-position clitics

The pronoun `si` is a second-position clitic. In this question, `Můžeme` is the first element, and `si` correctly follows as the second element.

Perfective verb 'vyměnit'

`Vyměnit` is a perfective verb, meaning it describes a completed action or a single instance of an action. Here, it refers to the single act of exchanging contacts.

Notes
