Please ma'am keep making more videos your every videos are useful for us in learning Croatian you define very well it's soo clear every learner can usderstand the way you're teaching

[@kristinaangelova3933]

It was really surprising for me as a Bulgarian to find out that i can naturally understand big part of a conversation in Croatian. Both languages have a lot of similar words. And I'm sure that if you come to Bulgaria and speak Croatian most of the people will understand you. You use latin letters and we use cyrillic letters for writing but the pronunciation of some of the words is very similar or even the same. If we take as an example the days of the week we only use different word for Tuesday (vtornik). The other days of the week are pronounced on 95% the same as in Croatian.

[@croatianwarmaster7872]

I was in Burgas and Varna in 2022 and tried to speak simply and slowly, also adjust the accent a bit. And honestly it worked. Bulgarian and Croatian are quite close, and I think it is worth learning. My friend gifted me some books in bulgarian and they are not that hard to read.

[@Lightangel1214]

I know this was uploaded a year ago, but I’ve moved to Croatia and married my long time best friend. His family is very warm and helpful, but the way you break down words makes it so much easier to grasp. I am so thankful I found your account and excited to learn! Thank you ❤

[@Axitutl60]

Hi Ines, I like the way you teach Croatian. I'm learning a lot from your videos, and your English is perfect. I'm British, and we are notorious for being a nation of language duffs! I was just wondering, would you be able to do a video on Croatian month names? What I have noticed is that they are very different from the month names in English and most other European languages (even Serbian, which is a related language). What they mean, and how they are derived. Many thanks!

[@biserkasertic1208]

January =Sječanj (this "nj" at the end is like first vocal in word New York) It comes from the verb "sjeći" means "to cut" in English.In the old times during the winter people cut the wood. February =Veljača (I'm not quite shure but I think the orgin comes from the arhaic word "vejavica"wich means "stormy wind with snow") March = Ožujak ("ž" is like first vocal in the French name Jean)I don't know the orgin. April = Travanj ( "trava" means the grass, so it's symbolise time when grass begin to grow.) May = Svibanj (again I don't know exactly the orgin, but I believe is connected with some plant) Juny = Lipanj ( "lipa" means "lime-tree" connected with time when this tree is flowering. July = Srpanj ("srp" means "sickle" - time of harvest) August= Kolovoz (it's consists of two words "kolo" = "wheel" or "wagon" and "voziti" is verb "to drive". Connected with the time when people drive back home the crop from the fields. September = Rujan (derivate from arhaic word "rujiti" =ripening, maturing (of fruits) October =Listopad (again two words "list"=leaf, "pad"=fall - time when leafs are falling from trees) Novenber=Studeni ("studen" = cold, chill, coldness) December= Prosinac (only connection is verb "prositi"=beg, but in same time means propose marriage to a girl, (in our language we say "beg for the hand of girl") probably the time of the year when people get married most often.)

Thank you very much for your work. I really appreciate it. Many many thanks. If I may I'd like to suggest something. I'd like to ask you to create content entirely in Croatian as in my opinion it is the best way to learn a language. Of course films for beginners are still needed but one can find some. However there is nothing for intermediate or advanced students and I think there is a grade demand for this. Please consider it. Best wishes and most respectful regards!

🇭🇷 History of Croatian language is very different ❗ compared to other south slavic nations. Until 19th century croatian language was separate language, it had nothing to do with other south slavic languages. But Mad Croats decided to unite croatian language with other south slavic languages in order to create the same Standard literary language for all South Slavic nations to achieve impossible mad south slavic unity. 😢😢😢 We regret that so much today. Croatian man Ljudevit Gaj in 1830 created croatian Latin alphabet called Gajica, later ALL south slavic nations including Slovenia adopted croatian Latin alphabet. In ❤1558 Croatian language was named as Mother of all slavic languages, croatian language then became one of the official languages at Western universities of that time. The first Croatian dictionary was published in 1595, the first Croatian Grammar book was published in 1604, ❤❤❤ Croats are the first Slavic people to publish a book in their own language in 1483. Other south slavic nations published their first dictionaries several centuries later compared to Croatia. Croatian language and literature went through Renaissance and Enlightenment periods something that other south slavic nations never experienced because they were never part of the Latin catholic civilisation in the first place. 🇭🇷 Ikavski is still spoken in southern Croatia. 🇺🇦 Ikavski is also spoken in Ukraine today. Why? Ancient pagan White Croatia was located in Ukraine. In Western Ukraine today still exists an ancient settlement of Stilsko, capital city of pagan Croats. Croatia is named after Croats who came from ancient White Croatia in the 7th and 8th century.

For me the rolling r is really difficult to pronounce. I can do it sometimes, but only rarely. I can make a rolling r at the back of my mouth, but i know that's not quite correct and it also sounds much different. When i try to pronounce it the correct way it often sounds like a mixture of the English "r"-sound and a "d"-sound. Do you have any tips for me to improve my pronunciation?

[@learncroatian9135]

Yes, rolling the r is a skill that is often difficult to master. I myself can't pronounce the German r correctly, no matter how hard I try 😂 Croatian r, just like Spanish one, is pronounced in the front of the mouth, right behind the upper front teeth.
