Well ... not allways, some sentence can be constructed so you dance around it ... but it often dont feel natural.
So in general, most likely. Yes.
And yes, it also apply to second person ...
But that it more matter of verbs.
"
You" translates to "
ty" when you talk to single person ... "
vy" when you talk to group ... but we also have word "
Vy" when you talk to single person, who you wish (or have to) to express your respect.
The difference between "
Vy" and "
vy" is only written, phonetic its the same.
Problem is that predicate and subject ties together again ...
So even if you wish to use second person, you can run ito trap ... especialy in past time:
What were you doing?
>
Co jsi dělal? (Male)
>
Co jsi dělala? (Female)
>
Co jsi dělalo? (Kid)
>
Co jste dělaly? (Group of Kids)
>
Co jste dělali? (Group, no matter the gender composition)
>
Co jste dělal? (Male + respect)
>
Co jste dělala? (Female + respect)
Kids are not shown respect in Czech language.
And for groups it sounds and its written the same no matter if you are respectfull or not.
And i imediately see i didnt pick good example, since in present time its "
Co děláš?" for any ...
Except group where its "
Co děláte?", wich is same for respected person.
Future time is also fine, since that is "
Co budeš dělat?" for person ...
And "
Co budete dělat?" for either group, or respected person.
But dont get an impression that present and future time are safe tho, i may just picked wrong example.
I was never too good in czech ... my grades were usualy 4 / 5 only rarely 3, better almost never (except for writing ... dunno how to translate it, google say its either style, or language, or pen ... neiher of those seems corect
it's when you get a topic and then they leave you for an hour or two to write anything related to the topic in the assigned form... that probably saved me from repeating the year ... my favourite form was a story, or deliberation).
I would say my skills are ... well, not much better than in my english, so you can imagine. :-/
