B2 is where you start writing like a newspaper. Formal Slovene turns verbs and adjectives into nouns — 'after the solution of the problem' rather than 'after they solved the problem'. About seven minutes.

verbs into nouns

· nominalizacija

rešiti → rešitev: the noun does the work

Formal and academic Slovene leans on nouns built from verbs and adjectives — nominalization. Verb → noun: rešiti → rešitev (solution), razviti → razvoj (development), brati → branje (reading). Adjective → noun: možen → možnost (possibility), svoboden → svoboda (freedom). So instead of ko so rešili problem you write po rešitvi problema.

rešiti → rešitevto solve → solutionverb + -tev

možen → možnostpossible → possibilityadjective + -ost

razviti → razvojto develop → developmentverb → -oj
