Imagine where some objects are, and play this game with your friend by
asking these questions:
Singular = Jednina:
Da li je sat u dnevnoj sobi ? = Is the clock in the living room ?
Da / Ne
Znači ovo je dnevna soba? Baš je lepa ! = So this is the living room ?
It is really beautiful/nice (lep - lepa - lepo)
Plural = Množina:
Da li su stolice na balkonu ? = Are the chairs on the balcony ?
Da /Ne
Znači ovo je balkon ? Baš je prostran! = This is the balcony ?
It is really spacious (prostran - prostrana - prostrano)
p.s. you can also check out the gapped quizz with the song.

In the Serbian language, one can express location using the verbs which require nouns in different cases.
The dative and locative case have the same form, but wheras the dative case needs a verb which denotes movement and direction, the locative case requires a stative verb or verbs expressing who we are talking about
Dative:
Sg. Fem. Kreni prema kući. Prilazim crkvi. (krenuti prema = leave for, prilaziti = approach)
Sg. Masc. Idi ka Beogradu. Kreni prema muzeju. (ići prema, krenuti prema)
Sg. Neuter. Idi ka selu. Krećemo se ka jezeru. (ići ka, kretati ka = "ka" is the same as "prema")
Plural: Prilazimo + kućama, crkvama, jezerima, selima, muzejima
Locative:
Sg. Fem. Sedim u kući. Ja sam u crkvi. (sedeti u = sit in )
Sg. Masc. On priča o Briselu. (pričati = to talk)
Sg. Neuter. Nalazim se u selu. (nalaziti se = to be in/at)
Plural: Pričam o + kućama, crkvama, oblacima, dvorištima, selima (I'm talking about houses, churches, clouds, gardens and villages)
The accusative case is also used with the verbs which denote movement, but it denotes the aim or goal, as can be seen in the following examples:
Accusative: (excellent explanation and different forms)
Sg. Fem. Idem u Budimpeštu. Ptica sleće na granu. (ići u = go to, sleteti=land)
Sg. Masc. Izađi pred muzej. Avion sleće na aerodrom. (izađi pred = come to, sleteti)
Sg. Neuter. Izađi u dvorište. Stigli smo na selo. (stići = arrive)
Pl. Fem: Ptice sleću na grane.
Pl. Masc. Izađi pred muzeje.
Pl. Neuter. Reka teče kroz sela.

Fourteen years ago on March, 13th 1996, this song was the Song of the Day at the local radio station. I remember listening to it every hour! Take a guess where I was by asking questions, as follows:
1. "Da li ste bili u + city ? "
(when you guess the name of the city, proceed to 2)
2. "Da li ste bili u + place ?"
