How does it change in a sentence?

весна́ is a feminine noun. It changes its ending to весны́ when used in the genitive singular or the nominative and accusative plural.

vesná

Russian has a specific term распутица to describe the muddy chaos that occurs during весна́. It translates to 'the season of no roads', when thawing ground makes travel nearly impossible.
The traditional Slavic holiday Масленица serves as a farewell to winter and a welcoming of весна́, involving the eating of blinis to symbolize the sun.
