Znaje vlastní cenu, dovedu ocenit jiné.


Gramatika: znaje is a present gerund masculine singular form from the verb znát. The present gerunds agree in gender and number with the subject of the main clause. Thus, the form for masculine sg. is znaje, feminine and neuter sg. is znajíc, and for plural it is znajíce. Here, the subject of the gerund agrees with the subject of the main clause (já), the narrator. A present gerund reports an action or state simultaneous with the situation in the main clause (Dívajíc se na televizi, Věra večeřela. [While watching TV, Věra ate dinner.]) dovedu ocenit (pf)

anglicky: Knowing (my) own value, I know how to evaluate others.
