Jučer je bio dobar dan

Yesterday Was a Good Day

Petra retells one perfect ordinary day — in the past tense, with every clitic exactly second. Nothing special happened, and that was the point.

You will practice: The perfekt (bio sam, radila je), second-position clitics after time words (Jučer sam…), je + se → se.
