You're welcome! I'm glad I can help!

Please teach us how to say "what time is it?" in Croatian
Thank you
.....
@@victorluperdi1497 That's a great idea! Thank you, will do!
Mais um brasileiro na área estudando croata. Legal!
I know this was uploaded a year ago, but I’ve moved to Croatia and married my long time best friend. His family is very warm and helpful, but the way you break down words makes it so much easier to grasp. I am so thankful I found your account and excited to learn! Thank you ❤
That's amazing! All the best in your life in Croatia! 🤗
Just found you with this video but noticed that it your last from one year ago. You're a very good teacher. I hope that you are doing well and will be back to teach more.
Really Volim te, I am fluent Slovak, so it was so funny to watch explaining pronunciation and padezi. We have maybe the same gramatika, but we don't use vocative. :D You're a good teacher.
Hvala for making this video. It is really helpful for learning the language. I just arrived here in Croatia last month.
Volim vas! I ceistitam vas - Croatia is a soccer superpower. (oh, you should do video on words like nogomet)
Hello from Canada Toronto is my home 2nd generation 100% proud of my heritage my dream is to travel to Croatia thank you kindly for teaching this wonderful language
Thank you 😊
Hi Ines, I like the way you teach Croatian. I'm learning a lot from your videos, and your English is perfect. I'm British, and we are notorious for being a nation of language duffs! I was just wondering, would you be able to do a video on Croatian month names? What I have noticed is that they are very different from the month names in English and most other European languages (even Serbian, which is a related language). What they mean, and how they are derived. Many thanks!
January =Sječanj (this "nj" at the end is like first vocal in word New York)
It comes from the verb "sjeći" means "to cut" in English.In the old times during the winter people cut the wood.
February =Veljača (I'm not quite shure but I think the orgin comes from the arhaic word "vejavica"wich means "stormy wind with snow")
March = Ožujak ("ž" is like first vocal in the French name Jean)I don't know the orgin.
April = Travanj ( "trava" means the grass, so it's symbolise time when grass begin to grow.)
May = Svibanj (again I don't know exactly the orgin, but I believe is connected with some plant)
Juny = Lipanj ( "lipa" means "lime-tree" connected with time when this tree is flowering.
July = Srpanj ("srp" means "sickle" - time of harvest)
August= Kolovoz (it's consists of two words "kolo" = "wheel" or "wagon" and "voziti" is verb "to drive".
Connected with the time when people drive back home the crop from the fields.
September = Rujan (derivate from arhaic word "rujiti" =ripening, maturing (of fruits)
October =Listopad (again two words "list"=leaf, "pad"=fall - time when leafs are falling from trees)
Novenber=Studeni ("studen" = cold, chill, coldness)
December= Prosinac (only connection is verb "prositi"=beg, but in same time means propose marriage to a girl, (in our language we say "beg for the hand of girl") probably the time of the year when people get married most often.)

Hi mis Ines..👋👋
Do you have a video on how to change/to form Singular noun into Plural nouns? ☺️.
And adjectives as well,
Your videos help me alot to understand Croatian language.I did a one week study with the Grammatical case series. I studied one grammatical case a day,so that my brain will not explode😁😁.
My next stop will be the verbs.
Hvala Vam puno.
Hello! You have singual to plural examples in some of the cases videos for both nouns and adjectives. I hope it helps!
Yikes! Learning a case a day! Great job! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
I liked your class very much
Really mam u r super

Are you in croatia I’m also in croatia i also learn croatian language
Thanks
Nice, thanks madam
Tako si lijepa
First of all thank you so much for all your videos! I am Portuguese and I am learning Croatian! It’s being such an amazing experience!! But I have a huge Doubt and I cannot find the right explanation! Why the verb Change to 2nd person when to say “ I like you” (Sviđaš mi se)!! Or if you want to ask if you like me “ sviđam li ti se “ why the verb change to 1st person!!
I hope you understand my question 😅
Once again hvala ti for sharing all your knowledge
Beautiful
Excelent
Am starting from the first of your video.wish me a good luck
Good luck!
havala super

Do you teach online? I’m looking for online lessons. You explain Croatian incredibly well!
I need to get back to my Croatian studies, I have just been too busy lately.
Hai sister i like also croatia
Hello miss yna! Can you make a video conversation about working
Hi sis. Ja sam mahesh. From nepal. I like your all vedios. I like you soo much.
Thank you very much for your work. I really appreciate it. Many many thanks.
If I may I'd like to suggest something. I'd like to ask you to create content entirely in Croatian as in my opinion it is the best way to learn a language. Of course films for beginners are still needed but one can find some. However there is nothing for intermediate or advanced students and I think there is a grade demand for this. Please consider it. Best wishes and most respectful regards!
This is a great suggestion! I'll think about this and see if I can come up with something! Thank you!
Bok, I have been learning Croatian for a couple of years but until now I have problem for using Htjeti and Željeti. I don't know when to use one or the other word. Thanks a lot for ur videos.
Your classes are very helpful. I am planing to retire in Trogir Croatia..hopefully by ten I know how to fully communicate.
Thank you
Trogir is a great choice!!!
@@learncroatian9135 yes I love that town.!!
@@42fleetline68 it's so picturesque abd peaceful (apart from the Summer season!) 😂
I am a new subscriber. I like your teaching style, but your regional Croatian dialect is challenging for me... Hello from Canada.
Nice
I’ve watched all your videos! I’ll be looking for an online Croatian tutor in September because we are moving to Croatia from the USA in a year. Do you teach/tutor yet?
Zdravo Ines! Sretan petak!
Sretan i ugodan petak! 🤗
@@learncroatian9135 hvala vam!
❤
Thank you for making this video ma'am this is very very useful video for me it help me alot please can make more videos though you feel discouraged making video if you don't mind 😂😉
Hii. Well before some months i asked you if you could put greek subtitles because i didn't understand much. So I'm here to say that i managed and understand everything thx🙏
I'm so glad!!!
I Ines, hvala ti, I've just discovered your site today
How long did you manage with variations I mean "deklinacije"
Did you learn at school
Welcome to the channel! Hehe, Croatian is my native language and I learned it at school, as all Croatian kids here.
Ines : it’s been a while sconce you have posted , we miss your videos 🤗
I know 😞 I'm so sorry. I'll attempt to post a new one soon!
Thank you for following!
Does (NOM.) svaki = each and svaka = every? Then, (GEN.) svakog = each, and svake = every? Or is it something interchangeable?
Thank you for your videos.
Yes, it is! Great job! So, NOM svaki (m), svaka (f), svako (n), GEN svakog (m), svake(f), svakog (n), etc.
Fala🙏
Thank you for teaching days of the week.
I learn languages with flashcards (Memrise, Duolingo, ...), so I was wondering is there any complete word-list (5000 words for instance) for learning Croatian?
Hi...I am learning Croatian with 2 apps on mymobile and they are really good:
1:FunEasyLearn 🐝
2:Mr Ling 🐵
I love subject pronouns.
Thank you mam,, i am from bangladesh,, i apply for croatia,
It would be good to explain things like srijedju = middle,also explain dropped vowels.
bok miss ines , can I suggest , can you make a video regarding preposition. hvala
Majority of prepositions are covered in the Cases videos :)
Hello teacher
I would ask a question
How many Countries where a standard of Serbian is an official language?
Is the dialects have a big difference between them ?
How is the difference between the Croatian ?
Thank you
American and british english ;)
I am looking for a book from which I can learn harvatski. Do you know the name of any book?
It's sad that most South Slavic languages lost their old Slavic word for "the second", which was vŭtory / въторъı . Between the 10. and 13. century in most western South Slavic dialects the preposition v / vŭ turned first into v / va , and later into "u", while the harder y / ъı turned into a simple i / и , so that "the second" came to be pronounced as utori . "utorak" is derived from this sadly lost word, but it would be actually logically more coherent if it was reintroduced into all ex- yu South Slavic languages as an additional synonym for drugi / други .
Plno pozdrava. Jaz vam vse dobro želju.
A quick question (written in Serbian): Moram da idem lekar u sredu ili Moran da idem KOD LEKARA u sredu. Koja je tačno?
Moram da idem kod lekara or Moram da idem lekaru. Either one is correct :)
Hi inez, i always watch your very helpful learning croatia.. im an expat currently living in croatia and eager to learn more..i wonder if you teach online too😊 how to contact you
Hi! I'm so glad you are here learning with me! Unfortunately, I don't teach online at this time. I hope to do more videos soon, though.

Hi can you please 🙏 tell me how to adress a letter to someone in Croatia 🇭🇷 im from the Caribbean, like how to I write the address?what do I include?
The address is written in the following order:
First and last name
Street address and number
Postal code and city
Country
For example
Ivan Ivić
Ulica kralja Tomislava 15
10000 Zagreb
Hrvatska (or Croatia is probably better if sending from abroad)
I hope that helps!
@@learncroatian9135 thank you so much
Hai, I can't access your website. How can I open it? It shows me ''I have been blocked'.
Every day sentences and dialogs would be nice... On journey, at home, at the restaurant , to buy some " voce i povrce" at the station, with the car ( "benzin" ) ...
Thank you for such wonderful suggestions!
Hi I like to speak and learn Croatian language how to contact with you because I now iam in Zagreb near
For me the rolling r is really difficult to pronounce. I can do it sometimes, but only rarely.
I can make a rolling r at the back of my mouth, but i know that's not quite correct and it also sounds much different.
When i try to pronounce it the correct way it often sounds like a mixture of the English "r"-sound and a "d"-sound.
Do you have any tips for me to improve my pronunciation?
Yes, rolling the r is a skill that is often difficult to master. I myself can't pronounce the German r correctly, no matter how hard I try 😂 Croatian r, just like Spanish one, is pronounced in the front of the mouth, right behind the upper front teeth.
@@learncroatian9135 thank you for answering!
@@some_random_human You're welcome! Thank you for learning Croatian! 🤗
@@learncroatian9135 are you learning German? Cause i actually am German 😁
@@some_random_human I know some German. I studied it in school. I haven't actively used it in years so I lost a lot. But, I love German! It's a fun language to speak.

Why is IT so negative attitude? Better say: volim petak! ;)
To je jako teško 🥲 even as an Spanish speaker. Knowing when to use what case is so complicated
I know it's hard... It does take practice, but you can do it. Just be persistent and use a lot of example sentences you can come up with.
Thank you for all videos they’re very helpful. I’m wondering when come new lessons
Hvala lijepo (:
