There are two ways to say you speak a language:
- using an adverb: Nākamais cilvēks runā somiski (latviski, angliski, vāciski, itāliski)
- or the name of the people that speak the language in the genetive case followed by valoda in the locative case: Nākamais cilvēks runā somu valodā

Please try not to forget the long vowels! It's even more important to pronounce them correctly.

ziema is the direct object in this sentence and it must be in the accusative case.

I enjoyed the discussion in this theme. It is very interesting since I decided to learn Latvian. I started in May last year and I only use resources available on the net so this forum is a great place. And I have a question:mak wrote:

ziema is the direct object in this sentence and it must be in the accusative case.
What is the differnce between this two sentences? Why Man becomes es in the second example? I'm afraid this question is not that simple.
Am I wrong?
