Usage notes[edit]
jezdit is in the class of Czech abstract verbs. Its counterpart, jet, is a concrete verb.
- For the means of transport, Czech uses the preposition na (on) and the locative case, or the instrumental case without a preposition.
- jezdit na kole ― to ride a bike
- jezdit vlakem ― to go by train
- jezdit autem ― to go by car (but: řídit auto)
- While the word jet refers to a single journey, jezdit implies a habitual or a general action.
- Pojedeš tam autem nebo autobusem? ― Will you go there by car or by bus?
- Do práce jezdil tramvají. ― He used to go to work by tram.
