He's finished

I’m a 29 year old American born and raised, but I’ve always strongly identified with my Dalmatian heritage. I speak the dialect fluently (though I still mess up the padeži), and I understand the Dalmatian speech both sets of my grandparents use (from around the Zadar area, both the islands and the villages/selos around Zadar).

Both sets of grandparents grew up in what was then Yugoslavia. My mother was born in America to immigrants, and my father immigrated before the collapse, but they have always identified as Dalmatian Croatians.

I’ve always know that the language I speak and learned is quite different from standard Croatian. But in recent years I’ve realized I often find it easier to understand Serbian, Montenegrin, or even Bosnian content/media than Croatian content/media, even though I don’t read Cyrillic. The words and phrasing just feel more familiar.

I know there was a stronger push after the breakup of Yugoslavia for the Zagreb-based standard, but I’ve noticed the difference much more lately.

I use the usual Italian-influenced Dalmatian words (šugaman instead of ručnik, pomidor instead of rajčica, vešta instead of haljina, pijat instead of tanjur, etc.), which most Dalmatians do. But I also say things like “iljada” instead of “tisuća,” which I think is more common on the Serbian side.

Recently I came across “obilježene obljetnice” in Croatian media and had to look it up. I would have immediately understood “godišnjice koje se slave.” This kind of thing has been happening a lot.

I have no interest in starting any political arguments, I’m just describing my experience as a heritage speaker. Has anyone else (especially other diaspora or coastal/island speakers) noticed something similar?

In Croatia, Brač takes that title!

I'd state a few examples . Starting with Croatia -They have tensions with Serbia ( ofc ) Montenegro, Bosnia .

Bosnia obviously has issues with Serbia and bosnian serb parties don't get along well with Croatia either .

Greece has tensions with Albania , Macedonia ( not a lot anymore though I think ) and Turkey ofc .

Albania has tensions with Serbia and Greece .

Serbia has tensions with Croatia, Bosnia and Albania/kosovo .

I may have missed a few as this list isn't all inclusive .

To all the Serbs reading this, now's our chance. Go out and vote!

Hey dear Serbians,

How is your election going ? apparently the turnout is very high.

What are your expectations ?

Give us the latest updates

First of all I’d like to congratulate the Students List for their win! I was watching from home yesterday and i couldn’t even begin to understand how it must feel! I’m so happy for you🫶🏼

Secondly i wanted to learn serbian cause my gf is from Paraćin soooo i was wondering if you knew about anything that i could look up online and just watch? I’m talking kids shows, movies, videos,… anything will do really

Thank u in advance :D

For months i have been feeling phisically ill which makes labour and living much harder than it should be. I am hurt by the past of my people i feel like i am bleeding and i am soon to bleed out. Why does history have to be so cruel? Why are humans so cruel? Why can't we change it? Why are we forced to live with the consequences of the past? It starts to get really hard to carry all this burden, i can't anymore. I can't change the past and my mind and body are so hurt i can't describe it i am no one and nothing

Hi everyone, i have read a lot about your culture and i found it really interesting, you are so cool!!! Thats why i decided to find out how you treat rus people like me, because it seems to me that they dont really like us there. Just please dont judge me by my political views. If possible, ill come and be a good guest who will try to eat everything you give me and even tell something to you. (Bureks are very yummy, I liked it)

I just saw like 4 on the sidewalk one after another and remembered collecting them as a kid with friends.

Anyone else find this gets old? Like sort of goes with the whole Russian / Eastern European thing. We come from a small village; our men are drunks and we have third world stuff going on.

I spent a month in Zagreb a year ago and it was a positively thriving intellectual central European capital. More bookstores per capita than the more “civilized” west, libraries, cafe culture etc.

It just sort of irks me.

Currently in Banff, Canada 🇨🇦 and was super stoked when I saw that there was a Balkan restaurant, as I tried all kinds of burek in Albania and they all still live in my head rent-free 1.5 years later. This restaurant, however, did not have any, which made me question its origin and whether there are just more popular Greek dishes out there than burek.

Also, where can I find the best burek in the Balkans?

Serbia was, geo-politically, kinda pro Erdogan (despite also maintaining traditionally decent relations w/ Greece).

How Serbia looks like for a Czech, who's never been there before?
