U say good Charles and we can understand you. But only 1 suggestion, when you talk Serbian words say short and quick... "Nos" is good "Noooos" is bad. "Ruka" is goood...."Rukaaaa" is bad Say short and fast, dont strech ...=) We have reverse problem when we learn English. See here (Rewind to 3:00 min) Tesna Koza-Japanac(on se meni plazi)..
Good Job! Serbian is hard to learn, because it uses past tense, present tense, and future tense in a lot of it's grammer.... Kudos to you!!! So far, no mistakes!!!!
heya charles, you did a brilliant job! usually, english native speakers have a really hard time pronouncing some of our sounds, but some of the words were literally spot on, so well done! :) the only thing i could say is that you might aspirate the k and p a bit more. the way you said them they almost sounded like the serbian g and b. (e.g. in the word stopalo). but great job :) -marija
Indeks finger = "кажи-прст" - means something like "speak-finger"; middle finger = "средњи прст" - in same meaning; ring finger = "до-мали прст" - means finger next to pinky; pinkie = "мали прст" - means little finger; thumb = "палац"
i like this video, and i love all the helpful coments from serbija ppl(thankyou for y'all) that correct for in this video, because im on (new)learning serbija language too in my autodidact way hihihi.
Man dont listen to him, we also say "grudi", for males. I have never heard anyone say "prsa", very very rarely, that is something bosnians or croatians would say.
In English vowels are A E I O U and sometimes Y. Yes? Well in Serbian vowels are A E I O U and sometimes R. So in Prst there is a vowel. Just a sometime vowel.
hahaha, yes I`m loughin`, but I`m impressed you really WANT to learn language you know, Serbian is difficult for pronunciation, it is slavic (southern) language, but it doesn`t much sound like one (compare it to russian for example), it`s tough, sharp when you hear it, grammar is similar to latin, so you change words, nouns and verbs by rules etc actually in `prst`, letter R is semivowel, like L, so we regularly use that rule ;) good luck dobro je :)
Shaka/shake is technically fist. Ruka/ruke is used for both arm/s and hand/s. A bit confusing to get used to. It's one of those that's difficult to directly translate. Zglob can also refers to both wrists and ankles just an FYI, but gležanj (has that little tick above the z) is the more accurate way of saying albeit one not too many people use. Your Serbian is going really well man. Just keep consciously trying to improve your accent and you will.
If you go to the doctors office they will use GRUDI, because they are chest, and the name is valid as used in medical books "GRUDNI KOŠ" describing the rib cage. It is true we have several meanings for the GRUDI, but I don't think its too common for anyone to go around and asking people about their GRUDI or complimenting them on the same. Also, to become a "sexual thing" you need to add a gender before the word and say FEMALE CHEST, that would indicate breast. PRSA is not a common term.
Way to go, broo :D Nice pronunciation u've got there :D We are not really saying "glezanj" for ankle.. That's kinda croatian. We say "zglob" too, some says "chlanak", but, that's kinda corny too :D
KAKO SI CHARLES? I just drop by to leave a comment. I like how you say HEAD(glava) but did you know that Serbs have two heads. The second one is between their knees. :) Cheers man. Looking forward to meet you someday. Take Care and stay well
don't worry, your doing awesome! You should try saying names now, do me a fave and try to say my name. My name is Жарко (look on Google trans) , and my great God is it hard, i can't even say it correctly sometimes. Its a really rare name, in literal translation it mean fire like, or blaze like, spark, flare, or ember. (anything related to does little fire balls you see flying up when you burn wood in the fire place) Also, did you see the serbian choir concert in the UN in January this year?
Only one mistake, but it was very hard anyway. :) I bet a faculty or some higher education school would be crazy not to hire you as an English teacher. Wish you all the best Charles, until next upload, stay cool! :)
You pronounced everything correctly (concerning letters in the word). Awesome pronunciation on KOLENO, for the second attempt. :) On gležanj or članak you screwed up.
in what part of serbia??? i have never heard "prsa" and we use "grudi" for both female and male chests, though grudi can also mean breasts obviously. (i'm from the kraljevo region).
Ahahah UVO in Nish, UHO in Belgrade :D Gležanj = skocni zglob, jumping ankle, NJ = its like NEW YORK, NJU JORK DJ = eng "J"OKE, dj is also Đ đ č = eng cat"ch" dž = eng garba"g"e and u already know ć ( Novak Đoković ) and š šta ima...
You said everything right, but I laughed when you tried to say GLEŽANJ :)))) I'm sorry, but that was sooo funny :)). Anyway, this guy is wrong. Cheek is OBRAZ, and face is LICE as you said. Greets!
+Charles Cather After watching and seeing you pronounce those words I now grasp the idea how hard our language is to foreigners and how actually hard it is.You are doing great keep up!
Wait what.. both chest as part of the body and chest that ,,pirates use'' are spelled the same.. aren't they? They should be, you said pirate's chest is spelled cheast.. what XD
Btw you said no vowels, but in Serbia, vowels are a, e, i, o, u and sometimes R, English is the same but you, instead of ,,sometimes R'' have ,,sometimes Y''
:) thanks for watching
U say good Charles and we can understand you. But only 1 suggestion, when you talk Serbian words say short and quick...
"Nos" is good
"Noooos" is bad.
"Ruka" is goood...."Rukaaaa" is bad
Say short and fast, dont strech ...=)
We have reverse problem when we learn English.

You just gave me more energy than an entire pot of coffee! LOL!
"глежањ". But we use 'članak' more than gležanj. and name for finger is
palac,kažiprst,
srednji,domali i mali prst. Pozdrav,mnogo sreće u učenju!😉 😊 ❤
for glezhany - synonym for chlanack - članak (more in use),
ZGLOB (zglobb) means JOINT, so koleno (kohleno) - knee, skočni zglob (jump joint) or članak - ankle, ručni zglob (hand joint) - wrist, zglob prsta - finger joint, lakat (lahkatt) - elbow, kuk (cook) - hip, rame (rahme) - shoulder, vilica (wilitsa) - jaw = all body joints
butina (bootynah) - thigh
peta (pehtah) - heel
zub (zoob) - tooth
taban (tabbahn) - arch (foot)
dlan (dlann) - palm (hand)
nadlanica - back of the hand

Actually a serbian word for stomach is trbuh and for wrist is ručni zglob. Zglob means joint and can be used for any structure that connects two bones
heya charles, you did a brilliant job! usually, english native speakers have a really hard time pronouncing some of our sounds, but some of the words were literally spot on, so well done! :)
the only thing i could say is that you might aspirate the k and p a bit more. the way you said them they almost sounded like the serbian g and b. (e.g. in the word stopalo). but great job :)

Your awesome.Im from SERBIA

Glava = head, Koleno = knee, kolena = knees,Gležanj = ankle,Noga = leg, Noge=legs,Ruka = arm, Ruke = arms,Uho = ear, Uši = ears, zglob = wrist, zglobovi = wrists, Kosa = hair, Dlaka = single hair, grudi = girl's chest, prsa= male chest, struk = waist, prst = finger, prsti = fingers, Nos = nose,Oko = eye,Oči = eyes, stopalo = foot, stopala = feet,
:D
agree completely, i've never heard anyone say prsa. grudi for males and females.
actually face is called faca but close enough. good job charles love your videos love
You would also say 'kako ste' to someone older than yourself, or to your boss, or to someone you don't know very well.
had another guy mention faca.. thanks...
hvala... didn't know that...
guys im from Serbia i can tell you how we say:hair:kosa,head:glava,ear:uvo,leg or foot:noga,eye:oko,finger:prst....
Great!
thank you!!
hvala... :)

You should sometimes visit serbian comunities outside serbia like in rebublic of srpska or in croatia (RSK)
Its funny to see how Charles knows better Serbian than some people that are trying to represent themselves as Serbs. :)
so handsome!

Wait what.. both chest as part of the body and chest that ,,pirates use'' are spelled the same.. aren't they? They should be, you said pirate's chest is spelled cheast.. what XD
Almost nobody uses the word trbuh in everyday conversation though.
Srpski bree :D
Marko Jovanovic :) oh yeah~
SAME THING....
Btw you said no vowels, but in Serbia, vowels are a, e, i, o, u and sometimes R, English is the same but you, instead of ,,sometimes R'' have ,,sometimes Y''
