Who speaks Serbian?
Serbian belongs to the South Slavic group of the Indo-European language family. It is a native language for approximately 13 million people (around 1.8% of the world’s population).
Serbian is the official language of Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Additionally, it is recognized as a language of national minorities in Croatia, Montenegro, Czech Republic, North Macedonia, Romania, Slovakia, and Hungary.
History of the Serbian language
The Serbian language was formed by splitting from the Serbo-Croatian language. Its roots can be traced back to Old Church Slavonic, which served as the liturgical language by the end of the first millennium.
A significant contribution to the development of Serbian in its current form was made by Vuk Karadžić, a Serbian linguist and educator, who abandoned the traditional church language and based the language on the Herzegovinian dialect.
In 1791, the first gymnasium teaching in Serbian language was established. In 1850, as part of the idea of Slavic unity, a language agreement was signed between Serbs and Croats. This event marked the beginning of the formation of a language which in the 20th century was called Serbo-Croatian.
Since Serbian is one of the four varieties of the pluricentric Serbo-Croatian language, it shares many similarities with languages used in other former Yugoslav countries, namely Croatian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin (speakers of these four languages can communicate freely with each other).
Interesting to know
The greatest differences between Serbian and Croatian languages arise in their lexical layer (much less so at the level of syntax and style). It is generally believed that there are fewer differences between them than, for example, between British and American English.
The norms of the Serbian language are regulated by the Board for Standardization of the Serbian Language, located in Belgrade.
Facts about the Serbian language
- The standard variety of the Serbian language was created based on the Štokavian dialect.
- Serbian is perhaps the only European language that uses two alphabets (almost equally) – Cyrillic and Latin. Most official texts are written in traditional Cyrillic, while everyday content is created using Latin or both. In Serbia itself, Cyrillic is preferred, while in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, Latin is used.
- Serbian, like Ukrainian, is a language with extensive inflection. Nouns and adjectives decline in seven cases and two numbers. There are also three grammatical genders and a total of seven tenses.
- The interesting feature of the Serbian language dictionary is the appearance of month names derived from Latin (similar to Bosnian, unlike Croatian, where month names have Slavic origins).
Serbian in business
Serbian language plays a role in business only within the sphere of business cooperation with Serbia, which is not a popular business direction. Its knowledge is unlikely to be useful in international business activities.
