***** I told you Serbo-Croatian is the long Yugoslavia and now no more. Get it? And as the same Slovak-Czech long. Look, in serbian its (Januar,Februar,Mart,April,Maj,Juni,Juli,Avgust,Septembar,Oktobar,Novembar i Decembar). And in Croatian its (Siječanj,Veljača,Ožujak,Travanj,Svibanj,Lipanj,Srpanj,Kolovoz,Rujan,Listopad,Studeni i Prosinac) Now you see that is not the same Croatian and Serbian language. Do you understand?

***** Hi, could you help me translate this please? I have a series that I'm watching but there's this one episode with only Croatian subs. Ostaæeš sa mnom noæas? Umoran sam, Hurrem. Hoæu da spavam, lahku noæ! Sultano, jeste li dobro? - Nisam dobro, Nilufer. Uopšte nisam dobro. Nešto se desilo? Isabella... Koliko æe još ostati ovde? Ne znam! Zašto pitate? Nije mi se dopalo njeno ponašanje veèeras. Zašto je tako bliska sa vama? Dopada mi se kada ste ljubomorni. Ali ne shvatam razlog za vašu brigu. Ili sumnjate u moju ljubav prema vama? Ništa tako! Vjerujem vam sve... Ne sumnjam nimalo! Ali nije mi sve jedno da sam pod istim krovom s tom ženom. Gospodaru! Hurrem-sultana je tu. Neka uðe,... Reæi æu vam,samo,...nemojte se naljutiti... Govorim ovo za dobrobit Hatidže-sultane. Ne želim da nastrada! Govori to što imaš da kažeš! Èula sam da je Ibrahim-paša, bio u tako reæi bliskim odnosima s princezom Svake noæi, do rane zore, imali su razgovor na Italijanskom. I vi ste vidjeli sinoæ za stolom. Hatidže-sultana je mnogo uznemirena u prisustvu Isabelle. Biæe u pravu ako pomisli, da meðu njima nešto ima. Oni su,...kao barut i vatra. Presvjetli-paša! - Recite da mi pripreme konja! Hoæete li jesti? Nešto mi se ne jede,...muka mi je. Napravite mi lipov èaj! Odmah æu pripremiti. Paša! Šta ima? Hoæeš mi nešto reæi? Daye-hatun... Pita kada æu se vratiti u palatu. Da ispratim goste,...pa æu te pustiti da ideš. Princezo, mašalah, mnogo dobro izgledate. Tražim nešto od vas. Šta je to? Da se pomolim. - Pomolite?! Tražim da odem u crkvu, da se ispovijedim.

Hey, that is great! Just to inform you, Croatia was not a region but a republic in Yugoslav federation and was a sovereing kingdom 700 years ago. Croatian Kingdom had big role in the defence of European territory from the invasion of the Ottoman Empire and was considered the Bulwark of Christianity.

I think some of the commenters are being overly critical of the video. This is their first crack at it, and they deserve credit and encouragement more than anything. Remember that Easy German's first episode wasn't as exciting as more recent ones-all they did was ask people on the street how they were doing and when the people responded, they thanked them and let them their way. Give Easy Croatian time, I'm sure they'll have more conversation-focused episodes soon.

Best intro

To sum up the differences between Serbian and Croatian, as well as their speakers, for all of you who are genuinely curious, I'll say only this: these aren't 2 languages but 3. 1: Serbian - the native language of Serbs, who all understand Croatian, respect Croatians and treat everyone in a civilized way. They rarely post comments on KZread. 2. Croatian - the native language of Croats, who all understand Serbian, respect Serbs and treat everyone in a civilized way. They rarely post comments on KZread, but you'll find some here, since it is about their native language. 3. Nationalist - the native language of Serbian and Croatian nationalists. Serbian and Croatian nationalists understand each other perfectly, since it is practically one language and foreigners, even Serbs and Croats often cannot tell the difference. This is a literary language whose literary corpus is inspired by the oral poetry of the 1990's and has its vast literary corpus in the KZread comment sections, with many great pieces of literature quoted under this video. I hope this makes it clearer. I warmly invite everyone to visit Serbia and Croatia and get to know their languages and cultures, and meet, for the most part, the first two categories of their inhabitants.
