Please teach me Serbian!
I would be really grateful if someone could teach me how to speak Serbian (from Bosnia if possible). In return, I am willing to teach Enlish and a bit of basic French. I particularily need help with grammar and pronunciation. I am really desperate, so please, if you are willing to help me, either reply to this message or send me an email. I am not a gold member so you must email me first. I'd like to start out with simple things, such as "how are you?"

Re:Please teach me Serbian!
Hello, Stephanie ! (Halo, Stefani; Zdravo, Stefani)
I like your readiness to learn Serbian and I’ll help you a little bit to get started. The most important in learning something isn’t the coach, but your own will, your motivation and your inventiveness in looking for resources that slowly, I repeat, slowly lead you to the goal. There are many Serbs, Croats and Bosnian Moslems who now live in Toronto. I know the mentality of my former countrymen and I encourage you to contact them and say, you would like to learn their language. They’ll be happy to help you. There is difference between the Serbian, the Croat and the Bosnian (the newest name for more or less the same language) but never mind, for the time being. The differences are far less than between the continental and the American English.
Go to any public library and take some basic textbook with CD, DVD or audiocassette.
Search in Internet using the keyword SERBIAN or SRPSKI JEZIK and you’ll find something useful. Look up in the B.Board of this site and you’ll find a lot of young men offering their help in Serbian in exchange for English.
In my next message I will give you an insight in the pronunciation. In the meantime look up in the section CLUB LIBRARY(Language 1 Serbian, Language 2 English). At the moment the vocabulary is pretty poor and chaotic, but I am going to put there some expressions and single words, just to start with. There is a problem thou. The letters with additional accents above very often get distorted.
Good luck! (Srecno !)
