Why Is It A Good Idea To Learn The Serbian Language?

There are many reasons, but I am going to give you some of them:

  • Serbian is spoken in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Slovenia, Montenegro, in Romania (some places), in Hungary (some parts) in many places in Vienna, in Greece (some parts), etc., so it is always good to know for a bit, so you can communicate with Serbs and impress them.
  • Because of people — They are friendly, open-minded, communicative, optimistic, and we do our best so the foreign people can feel comfortable. We are almost always at their disposal.
  • Because of culture, — We have many famous scientists: Nikola Tesla, Josif Pančić, etc. Writers: Jovan Jovanović Zmaj, Ivo Andrić, Mika Antić, etc.; Sportsmen: we are great at water polo, tennis, basketball, volleyball, etc.
  • Because of the music — We have great musicians. The best proof for that is that Marija Šerifović won in 2007 on the Eurovision Song Contest with the song „Molitva“ and Željko Joksimović took 2nd place with the song „Lane moje. “
  • Because it opens you to a whole world of languages — Serbian uses two alphabets… Cyrillic can help you with other Slavic languages (Russian, Ukrainian, etc.) and Latin (that is used much more nowadays). Still, you have a significant advantage: We read just like we write, and every letter represents only one voice. You can see them here. If you learn Serbian, you will automatically know: Bosnian, Croatian, Montenegrin as well since languages are similar pretty much, and every Serb knows the languages that I mentioned.

Learning new languages is so contagious. Once you start to learn a foreign language, you cannot stop doing that, especially if you do it in an exciting and fun way with exciting people that are able to help you. That is why you should consider using Ling App and learn Serbian like a boss. This excellent app can help you learn things like body and health vocabulary or express emotions in Serbian.
