Let's put it this way. If you speak Croatian, you can understand Serbian, Montenegrin, and Bosnian completely, 100%. If you speak Serbian, you can understand Croatian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin completely, 100%. If you speak Bosnian, you can understand Croatian, Serbian, and Montenegrin completely, 100%. If you speak Montenegrin, you can understand Serbian, Croatian, and Bosnian completely, 100%. You will be understood in Macedonia almost completely (that was my experience at least). You will be understood in Slovenia and Bulgaria probably around 50-70% (that was my experience at least). You will be understood in Slovakia enough to communicate on a basic level. (that was my experience at least). If you are from any of the countries I mentioned, please tell me your opinion.

[@sartorresartus9669]

I know Ukrainian and Russian, i'd say you surely understand at least 40% and guess at least 20% more. I see multiple parallels with Ukrainian

[@susanallen7681]

I'm always grateful for people to share their language free on youtube, and your presentation is very sweet, but I do so wish they would understand that simply saying a long, long, long list or words with translation is not anything resembling a lesson and is practically useless for learning. What is useful is presenting a few words at a time and then memory drills--saying the word in English and giving time to remember and then saying it before giving the answer. If there is no regular testing of memory, there is no learning, simple as that.

[@teacherboko]

I completely agree, but people just like videos like this. Videos with exercises, for example, are not popular, they're not watched as much.

i'm italian and i know russian almost mother tongue and there are plenty of words from other slavic languages i can undestand but usually i can't understand most things that are being said.. i've never listened to serbian specifically but when i did some time ago i was fascinated by how much i can understand without knowing the language at all, it's a bit like italian and spanish (and i've never put any effort into learning spanish) but i'm kinda used to that, it's quite interesting that it's the same thing with russian and serbian. i can say that for certain serbian words/phrases you need a bit of logic, some serbian words use (kind of) russian words that aren't often used in that context but it all makes sense, other sound almost the same or like a sort of dialect.. and some are completely different. i can certainly understand serbian way easier than ukrainian.

[@teacherboko]

Yeah, I think that's kind of interesting for Serbian native speakers as well. There are also other languages like Slovenian, Bulgarian, Czech, Slovakian, and maybe Polish that could be somewhat understood. (not counting Macedonian because it is too similar, almost the same) Or you could understand how their versions of some words came to be, which is fun.

Do you Serbians ever use the Cyrillic alphabet or just the latin one? and is it useful to learn the Cyrillic if most of the Serbian language is in latin??

[@teacherboko]

We definitely use it. Government documents must be in Cyrillic, schools use it, etc. It's definitely useful for everyday life as well. Street signs are usually in Cyrillic. Probably newspapers. As far as TV, menus in restaurants and other texts go, it's literally fifty-fifty, we don't favor one over another, so you literally never know, because we use both and we don't care. Ergo, it is useful to learn Cyrillic. When it comes to the internet, movies, social media, phones, emails, books, magazines - everything you use in a modern day society - chances are it's going to be in Latin.

Can you please help me with the difference between Bog, Bože and Božja?

[@teacherboko]

God - Bog (default, nominativ) God, help me! = Bože, pomozi mi! (vokativ) god (adjective) - božji, božja, božje (depending on the gender) God's man - Božji čovek God's will - Božja volja God's child - Božje dete

[@invis_unlucky6972]

It seems to me that Serbian is similar to Russian and Italian🤔As a Russian who trying to learn Italian I see some connection 😅Although I’m russian I still find Serbian a bit hard to pronounce

[@teacherboko]

Right, even though Russian and Serbian are somewhat similar, it's kind of hard to pronounce. I have no idea about Italian though. We have taken some words from them because they had control over the Yugoslavian Adriatic territories in the 20th century (today's Croatia).

@@teacherboko Thanks. I am from Izmir(Turkey).

I have an intention to learn Serbian language. Best wishes for a continued success in your chosen field of endeavor.

Yes, it can. It's used interchangeably, although: hot - ljuto spicy - začinjeno "Get in" is definitely "uđi", yes.
