Are Croatian and Serbian the Same or Different Language?
Are Croatian and Serbian the same or different language?
What are the differences between Croatian and Serbian language?
Do people in Croatia understand Serbian and vice versa?
These are the questions that people ask me the most, and in this video I will answer all of those question with the help of Nela Chop, my mom, who has great knowledge and understanding of language because she has worked as a translator and court interpreter for Croatian and English, and she's also writing books and poetry.
Besides that, she was born in Yugoslavia and has lived half of her life during Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRJ), and the other half during the Republic of Croatia, so she is the best person to make this video with!

Nestor Villa yes a Serb would understand all and vice versa, even the small Differences that might occur due to dialects(which are more varied within the countries than the standards are between each other) or national standards, it’s one of those things you can usually understand from the context or just learn it at the spot. They are mutually intelligible, just like different accents of English are or German in Germany and Austria. Perhaps they are even more similar even more than English accents since you know there aren’t seas between Croatia and Serbia like there is between England, Australia and the States. :D

@@nestorvilla3605 This is just that there is a not an universal name for it. Outside of former Yugoslavia, it is possible to say 'Serbocroatian'. Maybe a practical name could be 'Yugoslav'. Inside the four Serbocroatian languages countries the phrase 'naš jezik' exists ('our language). The fact is depending your standard : Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian or Croatian you call it one of these four names. Probably because it neutralises the debate with the nationalists.

My teacher once told us the difference between Serbian and Croatian. She explained it as: Serbians: kuća (house/home) - domaćica (housewife) Croatian: dom (home) - kućanica (housewife) However it makes more sense to say: dom - domaćica; kuća - kućanica. But in reality it isn't so. So to avoid the confusion I say that Serbian and Croatian are like English in America and Great Britain. You understand everything but we have different accent, few different phrases and we also have Cyrillic.

It is a nice anecdote, but the claim is not completely true. Actually, the word "kuća" means "House", and basically applies to the building, but "dom" has a wider meaning which is "Home" as a place where we live, worm nest for family (where your Heart is :)). So "Housewife" is someone who works at home, and can be rented as a professional worker, while "domaćica" (is there a word - Homewife?😊 ) is someone who takes care of her own home and family and is not employed on some other job, so these are two different, if I may say, "roles", where Serbian form "domaćica" is much precise and comprehensive.

Bok. Prvo da velim, nisam stručnjak po pitanju jezika ... (kad malo bolje razmislim nisam stručnjak po pitanju ničega), ali moje mišljenje je da uz sve razlike u rječniku i gramatici, razlika hrvatskog i srpskog jezika više je pitanje politike nego lingvistike. A kaj se tiče učenja jezika u školi (u osnovnu sam išao od '81-'82 do '88-'89), predmet se službeno zvao hrvatski ili srpski jezik, a ne hrvatskosrpski. Čirilicu smo učili u trečem razredu (bez nekog velikog pritiska), a strane jezike smo počeli u četvrtom. U mojoj školi od stranih jezika su se učili njemački, engleski i ruski. Moj razred su zapali ruski i engleski (ruski je bio obavezan, a engleski izborni), tak da sam na kraju čirilicu ipak naučio. Pozdrav iz Zagreba.

There is no doubt of the near 100% mutual intelligibility of (standard) Croatian and (standard) Serbian, as is obvious from the ability of all groups to enjoy each others’ films, TV and sports broadcasts, newspapers, rock lyrics etc. Differences between various standard forms of Serbian (some people call it Croatian or Bosnian or Montenegrin etc.) are often exaggerated for political reasons. Most Croatian linguists regard Croatian as a separate language that is considered key to national identity. Exposing this delusion of separate language publicly and scientifically will annihilate their sense of nationhood.

@Ivica Radić Removing the name of language (CROATUAN, or Montinegroan, or Bosnianhercegouvian) as they are symbol of their existence of nation does not deny their existence. Language, as Croatians do not have any, does not present a basis for their identity. Croatian are basing their identity on some other aspects for which they are well known by beyond Balkans. Embracing their other aspects of identity will ensure their existence, as very few nations will be able in clear conscience to embrace same values.

It's maybe an unimportant or shallow thing to say but your nose had me hypnotized. You have the most beautiful nose ever. Greetings.
I need to point out some things. You can also use the future tense with the infinitive in Serbian e.g. "Ja ću ići", or "ići ću". It is used a little bit less than "Ja ću da idem", but it's very very common. The northern you go, the more it's used. Serbian has both ekavica and ijekavica. You're right about "vrhnje", few people would understand. In Serbia we call it "pavlaka". We also have mileram, I've seen that product in the stores, but I'm not sure what it is xD And about the other words, everybody knows what mrkva, kruh, kino, škare, otok are... And I think marelica is a type of apricot in Serbian. It's strange that she says her textbooks were called Hrvatski jezik, because even in the 90's in Serbia, our textbooks were called Serbocroatian language.

I found that my parents and I say some things as you would in Croatia, such as we would usually say "Ja ću ići..." instead of "Ja ću da idem..." (although, I think which one we'd use would depend on the context). I also had a thrill learning the word for carrot is completely different. I've always struggled with getting my head around are Croatian and Serbian really different languages, since they are as high as 97% intelligible from one another, and wondered if they really just different dialects.

12:14 Completely wrong. I. Serbian and I say "Ići ću" without ja. Present, future and past tenses are the same. Da+present constructions are more present in serbian, but not in forming a future tense. It's used as a second verb in a sentence which completes the action of the first verb. For example: Želim da odem which means I want to go.

With the tenses, "Ja cu da idem" example and others like it are more used in the south of Serbia and Central Serbia, but "Ja cu ici" or the continuative tenses are used more in north parts of the country and the capital of Belgrade. Its kinda the same sentence just worded differently, the best examples of Serbian and Croatian language differences are like "Grah and Pasulj" which mean the same thing(beans), just like in British and American English you have "Bins and Trashcans" (people usually understand most if not all words But keep in mind that words develop in different parts of the country that people from other parts dont understand, just like boston or kali slang develops.

15:16 "In Bosnia they sort of shorten things" Finally somebody noticed. I swear to God, when I watch videos about the languages online, it's almost as if nobody in the other ex-yugo countries ever visited Bosnia, because it's usually assumed that we say for example "dvadeset, trideset, ceterdeset, pedeset" but in reality when we talk to each other we say "dvajes', trijes', cetrest, pedest" sometimes "dvacet, tricet". Or when we say "ja cu ici", we just say "icu". In medieval Bosnian, we used to say "kto" instead of "ko"("who"), and "hotio/hotla" (later "stjeo/stjela", "scjeo/scjela", "stio/stila") instead of "htjeo/htjela" ("hotje" = "hoce"), and both "halat" and "alat" instead of just "alat". And "tisuka" instead of "hiljadu", and in Herzegovina they said "tisut" and so on.

Uprkos insistiranju hrvatskih nacionalista na razlikama i sumanutim pokušajima da hrvatsku varijantu jezika unakaze do mere neprepoznatljivosti i samim Hrvatima, to će uvek biti jedan isti, jedinstveni i nedeljevi srpskohrvatski ili hrvatskosrpski jezik.

The Croatian language is in relation to Serbian what Mexican is in relation to Spanish, or "American" in relation to ENGLISH...!!
Linguistically speaking, it’s one polycentric language. The example of US vs British English is a good one. Or German spoken in Germany vs Austrian or Swiss German. Or Portuguese spoken in Brazil vs Portuguese spoken in Portugal. Furthermore, the differences in vocabulary are mostly known and understood by everyone. Football in Serbian is “fudbal”, which is a loan word from English. Football in Croatian is “nogomet”. “Noga” means leg in both Croatian and Serbian and -met describes an activity in both Croatian or Serbian. In other words, Nogomet is descriptive in both Serbian and Croatian: a game played with your legs. Both Serbian and Croatian speakers know both variants, hence when you have a Croatian and Serbian speaker talking about football, with one asking the other “did you watch last night’s football?” - “Jesi li gledao fudbal sinoć?”, the other replies with “of course, I love football!” - “Naravno, obožavam nogomet!” On the other hand, the sport of Handball is called “rukomet” in both Serbian and Croatian. “Ruka” means hand in both Croatian and Serbian, so the word “rukomet’’ follows the same exact descriptive principles as does “nogomet”, but is this time used by both. The example od “mrkva” vs “šargarepa” (carrot) is another good example. As someone from Bosnia, I use the word “mrkva”, but I don’t register when someone says “šargarepa”, I immediately understand it as if they had said “mrkva”. Another difference in vocabulary is regarding history. The word for history in Croatian is “povijest”, while in Serbian it’s “istorija”. I use both quite interchangeably as someone from Bosnia, as do many novelists. My point is that the differences in vocabulary and grammar are so minute that they’re often quite interchangeable and I often don’t know which is which. I would say that the biggest difference between the linguistic variants in terms of vocabulary are the Croatian months. The months in Croatian are protoslavic and descriptive (siječanj, veljača, ožujak, travanj etc), while the months in Serbian are from the Gregorian calendar (januar, februar, mart, april etc). From my experience, the only differences in vocabulary that form a barrier are the Croatian months, which are not understood by Serbian speakers, while Croatian speakers understand the Serbian months because they’re the same in English and most other languages. This is usually circumvented by the fact that Croatian speakers, when speaking with Serbian speakers number the months. They don’t say “siječanj” for January, they say “prvi mjesec” - the first month. In the video you mentioned the differences between the word island. In Croatian it’s “otok”, while in Serbian it’s “ostrvo”. The difference is interchangeable, hence Serbian speakers who vacation on Croatian islands use the Croatian word “otok” instead of the Serbian word “ostrvo”, when speaking about Croatian islands. When I speak about, let’s say, Greek islands, I use the word “ostrvo”, but when I talk about Croatian islands I always say “otoci”. Here’s another funny example: the word for house in Serbian is “kuća”. The word for house in Croatian is “Dom”. The word for housewife in Serbian is “domaćica”. The word for housewife in Croatian is “kućanica”. A complete inversion. All of this is why instead of saying Croatian or Serbian languages, I prefer to use the terms Western and Eastern variants of Serbo-Croatian, as much as it might not be politically correct. As far as the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets are concerned, both languages are standardised in a way so that they can both be written using both alphabets. They were standardised in the 19th century as one language by Croat, Ljudevit Gaj and Serb, Vuk Karadžić. Each Latin letter has it’s equivalent in the Cyrillic alphabet, so technically speaking, Cyrillic is equally a Croatian alphabet as is Latin. It’s just not used in Croatia, which is completely fine, but it’s technically incorrect to say that Latin is Croatian and Cyrillic is Serbian. Just as the letters y and x don’t exist in both the Serbian and Croatian Latin alphabets, which is the exact same alphabet with the exact same letters that represent the exact same sounds, the Russian or Bulgarian or Ukrainian Cyrillic alphabets contain letters that don’t have equivalent sounds in Serbian or Croatian. In other words, it’s impossible to write many Croatian words in the Russian Cyrillic alphabet because some letters just aren’t compatible with the language and it’s sounds. On the other hand, Croatian can be written in the Serbo-Croatian Cyrillic alphabet because the language has been standardised for the Cyrillic alphabet just as it has been for the Latin alphabet. In other words, our language - call it what you want - is the only language in Europe that has been standardised for two different alphabets, which is pretty neat.

It is not the best comparison since within Portugal we do not have dialects however In Brasil there are a lot. As a Portuguese living in The NEtherlands and never ever have seen all the Brasilians sopas on the Portuguese television I was not exposed to some Brasilian dialects. Which means that I have HUAGE problems understanding anything some brasilians say while a friend of mine from São Paulo was easy to understand. So I get from Serb Croats friends that a very good comparsion is between standard Dutch in NL vs standard Dutch in Belgian which we mostly understand. Belgians do have more French words (a lot I think) which sometimes got a Germanic (Flemish) variant that is completely meaningless to us. But in general I think Serbian and Croatian is more like that.

@@milosmilosic2632 Serbian is based on Stokavian dialect. It’s a dialect spoken by Serbs, Croats and Bosnians. What is a language is an interesting debate. There’s a dialect continuum in South Slavic languages all the way from South Austria to the Black Sea coast. If language was based purely on linguistic similarity between dialects you would have three distinct languages in Western South Slavic. It would be Kajkavian, Cakavian and Stokavian. Torlakian spoken in South Serbia would be Eastern South Slavic. But definition of a language is more complicated and there are other non linguistic factors. All nations are imagined communities. Slovenian and Kajkavian speaking people belong to different communities although linguistically they are one grouping of similar dialects. Torlakian speaking people identify as Serbs, Macedonians or Bulgarians despite speaking the same dialect.
I'm from Romania and I've learned Croatian & Serbian 13 years ago because the history of Yugoslavia was fascinating. I don't want to stir the RAT by it's tail, but I love both Croatian and Serbian as one language with 3 dialects ( including Bosnian). Romanian language also has 3 dialects, but I understand the political reason for it. Mir je bolji od rata. Hvala vam. (Sorry for my rusty Croatian)

Ni ja nisam zvanični stručnjak u oblasti lingvistike, ali sam veliki ljubitelj različitih jezika i kultura, pa se, pored učenja stranih jezika, često bavim izučavanjem dijelekata i narečja. Kako bi bilo jasnije koji je moj maternji jezik, navešću da sam rođena u SFRJ (Jugoslavija) 70-tih godina prošlog veka. Kako sam živela na teritoriji današnje Srbije, u okviru školskog programa učila sam srpskohrvatski jezik. Ovaj se jezik smatrao i službenim jezikom države, a ravnopravno su bila u upotrebi dva pisma, ćirilica i latinica. Sam školski program, iako je većina udžbenika bila štampana na ekavici (korišćenoj u tadašnjoj republici Srbiji), u okviru predmeta srpskohrvatskog jezika sadržao je izučavanje svih dijalekata i narečja koji su bili u upotrebi na teritoriji Jugoslavije. Ovo je uključivalo i značajna književna dela autora današnjih različitih država u "regionu". Ono što bih posebno istakla, a u vezi je sa pitanjem šta se smatra mojim maternjim jezikom, odgovoriće istovremeno i na pitanje kakve su razlike između aktuelnih jezika u državama nastalim raspadom SFRJ. Dakle, iako sam rođena u centralnoj Srbiji, potičem iz južnih krajeva Srbije gde se "u narodu" koristi (ili je bar dugo odolevao iskorenjavanju) govor potpuno drugačije gramatičke strukture u odnosu na službeni jezik, bilo da govorimo o srpsko-hrvatskom, hrvatsko-srpskom ili o današnjim zvaničnim jezicima Srbije, Hrvatske, BiH i Crne gore. U ove četiri navedene države, kada je reč o službenim jezicima, mogu zaključiti da postoje daleko manje, gotovo neznatne razlike u odnosu na suštinske razlike između službenih jezika i pojedinih dijalekata unutar svake od država. Kako srodstvo jezika određuje gramatička osnova, a ne terminologija (što je česta zabluda), mislim da sam naziv jezika nema ništa više od političke uloge. Jezik je živa stvar, menja se i prilagođava, prihvata uticaje i širi uticaje. Ono što je ozbiljniji problem za sve nas koji nalazimo lepotu u svakom jeziku je opasnost od umiranja mnogih dragocenih oblika verbalne komunikacije koji nemaju status priznatog jezika. To je blago koje svet potpuno zanemaruje. Uzgred, prokomentarisala bih kratko segment videa koji prikazuje različite oblike istovetnih rečenica na hrvatskom i srpskom jeziku. Verujem da Vaši zaključci proizilaze iz iskustva u neformalnoj komunikaciji sa osobama koje koriste sprski jezik, međutim, gramatika ovog jezika je definisana nešto drugačije. Npr. rečenica "Ja ću ići...", pravilno bi bila iskazana u srpskom jeziku na dva načina: "Ja ću ići... " i "Ići ću...". Oblik "Ja ću da idem..." je neispravan i potpuno nepoželjan, ali, na žalost, previše ukorenjen u redovnoj neformalnoj komunikaciji. Da bi zlo bilo veće, srozavanjem svih vrednosti današnjeg društva u Srbiji, upotreba žargona, gramatički nekorektnih i neispravno formulisanih rečenica je postao sastavni deo javnog života, a posebno se oslikava u usmenom i pisanom izražavanju predstavnika države, te i ne čudi da se stiče utisak da su to prihvaćena jezička pravila. Kada su u pitanju pisma, dodala bih lični utisak u vezi sa upotrebom ćirilice, kao nametnutog isključivog služenog pisma Srbije. Koliko god da politički nacionalizam pokušava da nametne besmislena pravila, latinično pismo je bilo i ostalo najčešće upotrebljavano pismo u Srbiji. Ćirilica se koristi samo u krajnjoj nuždi, isključivo u pojedinim slučajevima kada izvesne institucije ne priznaju dokument izrađen na latiničnom pismu. Ova besmislica ne može prirodno zaživeti u narodu, bez neke posebne zakonske prinude. U nekom dužem vremenskom rasponu i ovo nije nemoguće, jer je na isi način ijekavica "ugušena" u Srbiji, iako je korišćena na široj teritoriji današnje države. Konačno, ako ste rođeni negde na Balkanu i uspeli ste da rastumačite ovo što sam napisala, nije li potpuno nevažno kako ćemo taj jezik nasloviti?

No hi ha hagut mai cap problema de comprensió. Quan passarà este missatge pel traductor, tu voràs que posarà 'missatge traduït del català'. No obstant això, tot el missatge està escrit d'acord amb les regles del valencià, que són les mateixes regles del català. Així que mai poden ser considerats dos idiomes diferents. És igual que l'anglés britànic i anglés americà.

So when we talk I start to remember some things....So one time two kids were counting in their fathers language, they said. They were a bit younger than me and lived in the neighbourhood here in my town in The Netherlands. They were counting to five and I rememeber she said (the sister of 8 and brother of 5) "peet". Which means five of course. So I was may be 12 and asked what language it was. She said "Croatian" which was meaningless to me. But now I wonder...Because that came the day of 6 January. And these kids were at our doorstep singing songs about the Three Kings. Now in NL this is meaningless, but still my mother knew something about it. She gave them candy and asked them to come in, for good reasons. I remember this because first of all I thought "hey, these kids again!" and also because I pitied them a lot. It was almost dark, near 17.00 hours, super bright, lots of snow and at least -15 C. And from the look at them both really felt it was very cld outside. Such a strange scene really. Three Kings? Kids singing outside when it is bittercold and my mom giving them candy??? But now I wonder: is three kings someting Catholic or Orthodox? I am confused a bit. I would not expect Croats (and I am 100% sure they were) to somehow celebrate Orthodox celebrations or am I wrong?

Croatian Experience with Sanda hmm well I can’t say for sure but I think it was always like that concerning the future tense. When it comes to DA+ prezent its very common and also correct in the case where there is a modal verb, for example: Volim da pevam, hoću da idem, ne znam da igram tenis, etc. I know that in Croatian in this case its more common to use infinitive, so maybe that’s why you noticed so much DA+ prezent. But when it comes to future tense it should be ja ću videti and not ja ću da vidim and its a common mistake. Keep in mind that in Serbian its also correct to say volim pevati and it depends on the person which version they’ll use. :)

Potato potato…it is the same language. There are drastic differences of course between the regions of the same country where the same language is officially spoken, which doesn‘t put this dialect as a separate language. Serbians from Bosnia/Croatia speak a bit different than the people from Serbia. We have a division which makes everything complicated: Serbians speak Serbian, Croatians speak Croatian…but this is the same language. German in Switzerland (and even Lichtenstein and west Austria) is far way different than in the rest of Austria and Germany, but it is still German language.

Ja sam samo od juznjaka u Srbiji čuo za Ja cu da idem. Svi govore ja cu ici
Video je odličan. Hvala. U komentarima je dosta nerazumijevanja kakva je bila situacija u ex YU, vidim da se mnogi čude kako to da nije bila ista situacija u školama u Hrvatskoj i u Srbiji. Vrlo jednostavno: SFRJ je, kako joj i sam naziv kaže, bila složena (federalna) država, a školstvo (obrazovanje) bilo je u nadležnosti republika, a ne federacije. To znači da je svaka republika (federalna jedinica) imala svoj sustav školstva i svoj program, a ti programi nisu bili isti. 1) NAZIV JEZIKA: U SR Hrvatskoj je službeni naziv jezika (tako je pisalo u svim dokumentima, uključujući i republički Ustav) bio "hrvatski ili srpski jezik / hrvatski književni jezik". Tako je pisalo i u školskim svjedodžbama. Međutim, nitko ga tako nije zvao, svi smo ga i u vrijeme Jugoslavije zvali samo i jedino hrvatski jezik. Koliko se sjećam, u ondašnjim SR Bosni i Hercegovini, Crnoj Gori i Srbiji službeni naziv jezika bio je "srpskohrvatski", iako su ga u Srbiji pojednostavljeno zvali samo srpski. Za BiH i Crnu Goru ne znam. 2) ISTI ILI RAZLIČITI JEZICI?: Iskreno, mi smo i u tadašnjoj SR Hrvatskoj smatrali da to nije isti jezik, nego dva vrlo slična, ali ipak različita jezika. U svim dokumentima koje je izdavala SFRJ (dakle, federacija, ne republike), sve je pisalo na 4 jezika - srpskom ("istočna varijanta", kako se tada govorilo), hrvatskom ("zapadna varijanta"), slovenskom i makedonskom. Tko ne vjeruje, neka uzme, recimo, putovnicu / pasoš bivše države, ili neki takav dokument (ne osobnu iskaznicu jer su njih izdavale republike i jako su se razlikovale među sobom), ili novčanicu dinara iz tih vremena, pa se i sam može uvjeriti. Činjenica je da su se hrvatski i srpski jezik sve do sredine 19. stoljeća razvijali zasebno, a da pokušaji njihovog ujednačavanja u dvjema Jugoslavijama u praksi nisu dali rezultata. Naprotiv, postali su izvor frustracija i nacionalizma. Činjenica je i da danas hrvatski i srpski imaju svaki svoj rječnik, pravopis i gramatiku, što su osnovni dokumenti svakog jezika. Činjenica je i da je Hrvatska ulaskom u EU unijela hrvatski jezik (ne "srpskohrvatski") u EU kao jedan od službenih jezika Unije i pod tim nazivom se pojavljuje u svim dokumentima i web stranicama EU. Ovime ne želim reći da se međusobno ne razumijemo - naprotiv, jako se dobro razumijemo - ali jako dobro se razumiju i Danci, Norvežani i Šveđani, kao i Česi i Slovaci, ili Indijci (hindu) i Pakistanci (urdu), pa nitko ne inzistira na tome da su to isti jezici... 3) LATINICA I ĆIRILICA: U školama u SR Hrvatskoj ćirilica se počinjala učiti u 3. razredu. Jedino što smo mi od ćirilice imali bilo je nekoliko tekstova godišnje u udžbeniku iz hrvatskog jezika. Svi ostali udžbenici bili su isključivo, samo i jedino na latinici, i tako je bilo do kraja i osnovne i srednje škole. Drugim riječima, ćirilica se u SR Hrvatskoj učila samo na način da se znaju osnove tog pisma. U BiH, CG i Srbiji učila su se ravnopravno oba pisma. U BiH su svi udžbenici bili pisani i latinicom i ćirilicom, i to do te mjere da je jedna strana udžbenika bila na latinici, a druga na ćirilici. Za CG i Srbiju ne znam, pretpostavljam da je naglasak ipak bio na ćirilici. U SR Hrvatskoj ništa od toga nije bio slučaj. Većina ljudi je ćirilicu znala na elementarnoj razini (pročitati je), pisati ju je znalo puno manje. U svakodnevnom i u javnom životu nije se koristila. Svi javni napisi su bili samo na latinici. Mislim da su izuzetak od tog pravila bile onih 11 tadašnjih općina sa srpskom većinom, među kojima su najveće bile Knin i Glina, gdje se ravnopravno koristila i latinica i ćirilica, ali tamo je i tada malo tko putovao. Ne isključujem mogućnost da je tako možda bilo i u još nekoliko ondašnjih općina u kojima su Srbi imali značajan udio u stanovništvu, poput Pakraca ili Petrinje, ali ne mogu to tvrditi jer se ni tamo baš nešto nije puno išlo. 4) STRANI JEZICI: I kod učenja stranih jezika bile su velike razlike među republikama. U Hrvatskoj (i Sloveniji ) dominantan strani jezik u školama i tada je bio engleski. Dosta su se učili i njemački i talijanski, a francuski i ruski vrlo malo. Negdje sredinom 80-ih objavljeno je da se u samo 10 posto škola u SR Hrvatskoj uče francuski i ruski, dok su njemački i talijanski bili prisutni u 40 posto osnovnih škola. Engleski se učio u znatno više škola (60+ posto). Međutim, trebate voditi računa da su se 80-ih godina, u pravilu, već učila dva strana jezika, pa je tu bilo raznih kombinacija (engleski i njemački, engleski i talijanski, engleski i francuski itd.). Obično su se strani jezici počinjali učiti u 4. razredu, iako je 80-ih već bilo pokušaja da se počnu učiti i ranije (od 2. razreda). Važno je reći da je učenje stranih jezika u SR Hrvatskoj bilo prilagođeno potrebama turizma, a tu ruski nije puno pomagao, pa se nije ni učio, pogotovo ne na obali. Ne znam kako je bilo u ostalim republikama. Znam samo da su mi tada pričali da se u BiH dominantno učio ruski, osim u velikim gradovima (Sarajevo, Banja Luka,...), gdje se dosta predavao (i) engleski. U CG je navodno (opet zbog turizma, a i zbog povijesti) vladala podjela u školama na ruski u sjevernom dijelu i talijanski u južnom, primorskom dijelu. U Srbiji se, osim ruskog, dosta učio i francuski, pogotovo u Beogradu, gdje je u školama bilo i dosta engleskog jezika. 5) SLOVENSKI I MAKEDONSKI JEZIK: U školama u SR Hrvatskoj nisu se učili ni ni slovenski ni makedonski jezik. Smatralo se da su to "bliski" i "domaći" jezici, a ne strani, i da su razumljivi pa ih ne treba posebno ni učiti. Jedino je u udžbeniku iz hrvatskog jezika bio po jedan ili dva teksta na godinu na slovenskom i obično jedan na makedonskom, i tada su nastavnici u nekoliko minuta izlifrali osnove ta dva jezika. Ispod tih tekstova je obično bio i kratki rječnik s objašnjenjima slovenskih i makedonskih riječi koje nisu bile iste kao u hrvatskom. No, nijedan od ta dva jezika se nije posebno učio, čak ni kao izborni predmet. S druge strane, u Sloveniji i Makedoniji se hrvatski ili srpski jezik (u stvarnosti, srpska ili "istočna" varijanta) obavezno učio u osnovnoj školi, ali kao poseban predmet (ostali predmeti su im bili na slovenskom, odnosno na makedonskom jeziku). To je bio i jedan od razloga što su Slovenci bili ljuti jer su smatrali da nije u redu da oni moraju učiti hrvatski ili srpski jezik, a mi ostali ne moramo učiti njihov jezik. Ne znam kakvo je bilo raspoloženje oko toga u Makedoniji.

@@CroatianExperiencewithSanda Evo novčanice YU dinara iz 1980-ih. Na prednjoj strani piše Narodna banka Jugoslavije na srpskom (ćirilica), hrvatskom (latinica) i slovenskom (naziv je isti na oba jezika pa se pojavljuje samo jednom) te na makedonskom. Na poleđini piše 20.000 dinara na srpskom (hiljada, ćirilica), hrvatskom (tisuća, latinica), slovenskom i makedonskom. I to pokazuje da je ex YU de facto smatrala srpski i hrvatski kao zasebne jezike, iako ih je formalno vodila kao jedan jezik s dvije različite standardne (književne) varijante. www.njuskalo.hr/numizmatika-novcanice/jugoslavija-yugoslavia-20-000-dinara-1987-oglas-36660119

Razlike su prisutnije u rječniku, nego u gramatici. Ovo objašnjenje razlika možda može biti zanimljivo strancima, ali ne i izvornim govornicima. Mogao bih mnogo toga reći o srpskohrvatskom.

We Serbs in Hercegovina use mrkva more often than šargarepa and we use the ijekavica. But you are right mileram is more common.
Amaterski, sa pregrst pogresnih informacija. Takodje kako Vi znate da je mrkva - sargarepa, tako i svi oni rodjeni pre 1991, to isto znaju,nemojte vredjati konstatacijom da NIKO u Srbiji ne zna sta znaci mrkva....ili rajcica, ili hrenovke ili glazba ili otok...ili sjecanj, veljaca, ozujak etc.

Nope. It is 3%. Which is about the same as the difference between American and British English and less than the difference between Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese.

In Serbia while it was Yugoslavia we always referred to the language as Serbocroatian not as Serbian. It was considered parochial to refer to it as Serbian because we considered us as a part of a bigger and more important entity called Yugoslavia. Sadly we regressed after the breakup as some nationalists think they achieved something. It’s a small Balkan mentality that prevailed sadly
I speak BCSM or Serbo-Croatian or Yugoslavian as a foreigner and I regard it as a single pluricentric language with multiple registers with mutual intelligibility close to 100%. As for the differences between Croatian and Serbian registers, there are about 2% of words that are very different (kazalište x pozorište, zrak x vazduh, obitelj x porodica) and another 3-4% of words that are different but very similar (kupaonica x kupatilo, posjet x poseta, ubojstvo x ubistvo, including quite frequent e-je juxtaposition - ljepota x lepota, prije x pre, mjesto x mesto). Croatian is the most puristic of all versions, but despite purely Croatian equivalents, many Serbian words are still used regionally or in informal situations (pegla instead of glačalo, vešmašina instead of perilica, avion instead of zrakoplov). Otherwise, the grammar is almost the same across all four registers (except for the typical Serbian expression with "da", e.g. "mogu da razumem" instead of "mogu razumjeti"), and pronunciation is also largely similar except for ekavica x jekavica difference. For learners, it's also worth pointing out that it's completely fine to mix those two registers up, as it's something that many natives in BiH do. In fact, I see Bosnian as a link that keeps Croatian and Serbian together, making it one organic "naš jezik".

oh, and another observation. Serbian tends to borrow and take more foreign words, while Croatian tends to preserve original Slavic words to a greater extent. Examples are: names of the months, school subjects… and even 1 example you mentioned - the word for "carrot" - Croatian "mrkva" (Slavic origin), Serbian "šargarepa" (Hungarian origin).Some more greetings from Vojvodina

I have no real knowledge on the topic but was Always interested since my karatetrainer was a Serb. Knew him since 1986. So the war and so on....Anyways he said tht you can only distinguish a Croat from a Serb is language. Not physical and the Croatsuse some different words. Khleb versus Krug I remember. I have watched so many videos I now indeed hear the difference like you say with Mlijeko and especially the Serbian long e...But I do not understand one sentence!
