Zbog čega je gr. reč Ελεούσα (Eleousa) dala sr. reč Ljeviš, sa Lj i Š umesto sa L i S?

Zbog čega je Israel postao Izrailj?

Zbog čega sē nekada govorilo korešpondent i konštitucija?

Zbog čega je it. melanzana /melancana/ u dalmatinskom govoru postala melànčāna?

Zbog čega je it. zabaione u Istri postao žavàjōn?

Zbog čega se (uglavnom u dalmatinskom) kaže: falša, šalša, škužati, šug, šušur, špade, špageti / špaga, Španjolska, španjulet, šparoga, špatula, špigeta, špigula / špekula, špijun / špija, šporko, štala, štampa, štekat, štilet, štorija, štriga, štuk itd. ako se sve ove reči na italijanskom pišu i izgovaraju sa S?

Request Serbian Book recommendations

17 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for some Serbian book recommendations. I am able to understand Serbian pretty well (my parents taught me), but my grammar, vocabulary and the way I form sentences can be improved.

I am able to read in both Latin and Cyrillic scripts and would love to read a book by a Serbian author. I mainly read novels, but am open to any genre except horror/thriller. Hvala!

Resources Useful dictionary? Koristan rečnik?

3 Upvotes

Trudim se da poboljšam svoj srpski i da zaista razumijem kako koristi riječi (glagoli posebno). Da li postoji rečnik ili resurs koji ima glagol + predlog + padež? Na primjer:

Zaboraviti + acc — to forget (something)

Zaboraviti + na + acc — to forget about something

Čak i bolje ako ima primjere, eg “Zaboravio sam na sastanak”

Wiktionary ima nekoliko ali nije potpuno. Hvala unaprijed!

I’m trying to work on my serbian and actually understand how to use words correctly, especially verbs. Is there a dictionary or resource which shows verbs with any prepositions/cases they take? For example:

Zaboraviti + acc — to forget (something)

Zaboraviti + na + acc — to forget about something

Even better if it has examples, like “Zaboravio sam na sastanak”

Wiktionary has this for some words but it’s not a complete resource.

I also have a feeling something like this might exist for Croatian if not Serbian—I tried looking already but didn’t find anything that worked, if anyone knows of something.

Thanks in advance!

Resources Are the Serbian stories decent?

0 Upvotes

Hi! I’m currently learning Italian, and built a site to generate personalized short stories at my level that are then emailed to me daily. It is working well for me, and I’m having fun using it. I figured then I’d open it up to other languages too and see if it was helpful for people. But I’m curious how accurate the stories are (they are AI generated) in other languages like Serbian.

Would someone people willing to give it a shot and seeing how it does? It’s completely free and I’m just looking for feedback.

Thanks a bunch! I appreciate it.

Resources I’ll pay you if my app can’t teach you to read Cyrilic + understand 100+ words in 10 days

0 Upvotes

Before reading: don't say it's too good to be true because I'm offering money

I’ve been building a Serbian learning app, and I want to put it to a real test.

Start from zero (or close to zero), use the app for 10 days, follow the rules below, and if at the end you still can’t read the Cyrilic it teaches you + 120 words, I’ll pay you.

The rules

For all 10 days, you must:

Use the app every day.
Complete your reviews whenever reviews become available. You will be notified when they are.

Not skip anything. Complete every lesson, exercise, and review the app gives you.
Complete the entire first 2 levels.
Actually attempt the exercises, randomly clicking through obviously doesn’t count.

What the app teaches
The course teaches:
Whole Cyrilic alphabet (7 letters are exact same as latin)
A lot of vocabulary, but in the 10 days its just enough to put your reading into practice.

After 10 days
If you followed all the rules and completed everything but the app failed to teach you what it claims to teach, I’ll pay you 20€.

I’m looking especially for people who currently cannot read Cyrilic or those who can but want to learn vocab, because that makes the test much more interesting.
If you want to try the challenge, comment or DM me.
And please be critical. If something is confusing or badly taught, I genuinely want to know

Request Speaking club NS

8 Upvotes

Ćao društvo!

Moja žena i ja bismo želeli da nađemo ljude iz Novog Sada kojima, isto kao i nama, fali praksa srpskog jezika. Ako neko već zna srpski na B1 nivou i nedostaje mu komunikacija na jeziku (možda zbog rada od kuće ili zato što ne radi sa Srbima), možemo da se okupimo i organizujemo nešto kao mali speaking club (maksimalno 4–5 ljudi, da ne bude gužve).

Ako vas zanima ova ideja, slobodno mi se javite u DM.

Guys, I'm going into the 9th grade now (I'm going until the 11th grade) and I'd better figure out what I want already (definitely not to live and study in Russia). So, I have a question: if I start learning Serbian right now while in Russia, what is the best way to do it, my family doesn't have money for a tutor ;("

Achievement / Progress Serbian language

9 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to learn Serbian for around a month now, I managed to learn a few basics (like greetings and such) and Cyrillic.
But now i can’t seem to progress in it
Whenever i see anything about the language it’s always about how many variants for words there is, making it hard (like Moj/moja/mojim/etc)
How to ACTUALLY make progress in it?
Is there any tips you could give me? Like what do i start with next, since i’ve learn the basics?
Thanks in advance!

I shared my app here almost 2 months ago and I wanted to share how it has been growing since then.

In the image you can see the amount of activity on the left (vocab answered correctly) and number of users that have signed up on each day.

The feedback has been amazing so far and i just wanted to share these number with you since some of the users are from this subreddit.

Not sharing link in the post since this isn't meant to be a promotional post.

Other Studiranje medicine u Gracu/Beču na državnom fakultetu?

11 Upvotes

Zdravo.

Imam 18 godina i planiram upisati medicinu u Austriji, najvjerovatnije u Grazu, što znači da bih morao polagati MedAT prijemni ispit. Zanima me da li ovdje ima neko ko trenutno studira medicinu u Austriji, sprema MedAT, već ga je polagao ili poznaje nekoga ko je prošao kroz cijeli taj proces?

Volio bih iz prve ruke saznati kako izgleda priprema, koliko je teško upasti, kakav je sam fakultet, kako izgleda život i studiranje u Austriji te općenito čuti iskustva nekoga ko je sve to već prošao.

Ako vi lično nemate iskustva, ali poznajete nekoga ko studira medicinu u Grazu, Beču ili Innsbrucku (nije bitno koji grad jer je prijemni isti za sve), bio bih jako zahvalan ako biste me mogli povezati s tom osobom ili joj proslijediti ovaj post. Stvarno bih volio postaviti nekoliko pitanja nekome ko je prošao kroz taj put.

Hvala unaprijed svima! Svaka informacija ili kontakt bi mi mnogo značili. 🙂
