Serbian 301 - Word Order with SE

Marina Serbian 301 , Word order in Serbian

From the very first lesson, one gets to learn that funny "se" in the sentence: "Zovem se... " (My name is...). Often times it doesn't mean anything, or simply isn't translated into English. That's why you need to do a lot of exercises to get accustomed to this form.

Serbian 301 - Word Order with SE

Let's start with the first exercise where you simply need to say how much these sentences are true for you. Try using the following phrases:

Takođe
Isto
Ponekad
Uglavnom
Nikada

Exercise with Word Order with SE

Now, that you are familiar with these sentences, you can easily do the following exercise - putting the words in order. Have fun!

Serbian A2 to B2 Video Lesson

Marina Accusative in Serbian , Conditional Sentences in Serbian

Serbian A2 to B2 Video Lesson

Here comes a video lesson which will help you practice Serbian at different levels.

As you can see, there are three phrases.

Serbian A2 Video Lesson - Accusative

The verbs such as TRAŽI - to search VIDETI - to see or VOLETI - to love (jesti, piti, slušati, gledati, kupiti, naći, etc.) trigger the Accusative case endings in the words that follow it (these can be not only nouns, but also numbers and adjectives in front of the noun)

What does ti mean?

It will change the upcoming word(s) in such a way that

anything that is in singular, ending in -a, will drop the -a and change to -u. For example: čokoladA ... Tražim čokoladU = I am lookin for chocolate :o)

Serbian B1 Video Lesson - Genitive

The following prepositions:

pored - next to
između - between
ispred - in front of
iza - behind
ispod - under
iznad - above

trigger the Genitive case in the words that follow them:

Example: Jaje je pored slaninE. (the nominative case is: slaninA)

Singular:

-A>>> -E
slanina - slanine
torta - torte
kruška - kruške
lubenica - lubenice

-anything else >>> -A

mleko - mleka
jaje - jajeTa
đus - đusa
sok - soka
tiganj - tiganja
hleb - hleba
sir - sira

Serbian B1/B2 Video Lesson - If Clauses

Potencijal = Second conditional or If Clauses in English
(or If I could..., I would... or If I had, I would...)

DA+ PRESENT, JA BIH + GLAGOL+o/la

Da mogu da jedem lubenicu, ja bih je (po)jela.

KAD BIH + GLAGOL+o/la, JA BIH + GLAGOL+o/la

Kad bih mogla da jedem lubenicu, ja bih je pojela. Prevod: If I could eat a watermelon now, I would eat it.

Serbian 701 - ZA Prefix in Context

Marina Listening comprehension , listening comprehension skills

Another fun lesson from Serbian 701 Online Course, based on the following video:

Serbian 701 - Speaking Practice

1. Firstly, you can simply watch the video without listening, trying to guess what might be happening by using the following phrases:

a. sigurno

b. verovatno

c. možda

Serbian 701 - Listening Comprehension

2. Next, you can now watch the video again from the same second and try to figure out what each interviewee says about their favorite football team. O čemu pričaju?

a. Za koji tim oni navijaju?

b. Odakle su?

c. Kako su zavoleli ovaj tim?

ZA Prefix in Context

3. Finally, let's compare how the following verbs are used

a. voleti - zavoleti

Volim ovaj fudbalski tim. Zavolela sam ih kad sam bila prvi put na njihovoj utakmici.

b. čuditi se - začuditi se

Čudim se tvom izboru fudbalskog tima, posebno sam se začudila kad sam videla da tim nije iz Srbije.

c. grejati se - zagrejati se

Nikad se nismo grejali na plin, koristimo samo centralno grejanje.

Kad si se zagrejao baš za tu kompjutersku igricu?

d. misliti - zamisliti

Nikad nisam mislio da ću navijati za Liverpul! Zamisli mene pre pet godina, nisam ni znao gde je Liverpul, ni šta je fudbal :D

e. početi - započeti

Kada počinješ da se spremaš za utakmicu? Hajde, nemoj gnjaviti...kad nešto započneš, to i završi!

Textbooks for Learning Serbian - Where are Kids?

Marina locative in Serbian , Textbooks for learning Serbian

My latest textbook is finally visible on Amazon :) I have created a video lesson for you, based on the first few pages. This is just an introduction in which you can practice one of the most commonly confused language chunks in Serbian:

I am going to ... = idem u + accusative case e.g. idem u park - idem u prirodu
I am in / at = ja sam u/na + locative case e.g. ja sam u parku - ja sam u prirodi

As you can see, the page numbers are here and there, so you can learn the following phrases:

U gornjem desnom uglu = at the top right corner
U donjem levom uglu = at the bottom left corner
Na sredini = in the middle

This book also has all the letters (slova) of the Cyrillic alphabet hidden in it - all you have to do is look carefully. Once it was published it took me ages to find a few letters, they are hidden soooo well! The most important thing is that all 30 letters are in the book!

Koliko ste našli slova?
Gde ste ih našli?
Koje slovo je bilo najteže naći?
