    The South Slavic languages are one of three branches of the Slavic languages. There are approximately 30 million speakers, mainly in the Balkans. These are separated geographically from speakers of the other two Slavic branches (West and East) by a belt of German, Hungarian and Romanian speakers.
    The South Slavic languages include Slovene, Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, Macedonian, and Bulgarian.
    If you are interested to see your native language/dialect be featured here.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Jesus I never realised how similar the names of days in South Slavic languages were to Hungarian, Hungarian must've borrowed the names from surrounding South Slavic langauges.
    In Hungarian Wednesday is Szerda, Thursday is Csütörtök, Friday is Péntek (funnily enough that's my surname) and Saturday is Szombat, the similarities are pretty striking.

    Interesting the words for "brother." Now, when you call him a "brat," just tell him that you're simply referring to him as "brother" in three South Slavic languages. XD All joking aside, this was a fascinating video. Slovenian in particular has some noticeable influence from Greek and Italian in the words for "one" and "goodbye" ("ena" and "adio" respectively) but, then again, Slovenia borders Italy, so the latter word makes sense. Either way, this was just fantastic. Thank you and keep up the great work!

    Kako sta? - This phrase is an informal way to greet two people at once and ask about their well-being. It is used the same way as "Kako si?", but for two people.
    Kako ste? - This phrase is a formal way to greet one or more people and ask about their well-being. It is used in formal situations or when speaking to someone we don't know well.
    Focusing on a specific topic:
    Kako ti gre? - This phrase is used to ask someone how they are doing in life, in general or in relation to a specific topic. It can be used in both informal and formal situations.
    Kako vama gre? - This phrase is used to ask two people how they are doing in life, in general or in relation to a specific topic. It is used the same way as "Kako ti gre?", but for two people.

      "море" is sea in Bulgarian, not water (except in some contexts maybe). "воден" is an adjective of "water" from masculine gender. Same goes for the rest "водна, водно, водни."
      Serbian can be written in Latin alphabet too since it is official both Cyrillic and Latin, unlike Croatian or Slovenian where they are written in Latin alphabet only.

    The video has some misconceptions - for example relatives titles, such as father, daughter or some of the greetings:
    - Shterka is used for daughters and is somehow used rarely in the cities , but used mainly among elderly people. Yet if you say shterka anyone will understand you are talking about daughter.
    - Otec is used for father, but much more about God - again Otec is probably older word then bashta, still anyone will understand you.
    - Zdravo - in rural areas people often use also Zdravo for Hello , instead of Zdravei. The root of the word is health - zdrave". While we don't use Zivjo, zhivo in Bulgarian (and I'm sure in all Slavic languages) means something alive, thus is greetings to be alive. In Modern Bulgarian we have the strange idiom/greetings - "Be alive and healty" - "Da si zhiv i zdrav", which is paradoxical for foreigners as you can't be healthy if you are not alive, but what can I say....
    From purely Bulgarian perspective - Serbian and Slovenian sounds for us as Medieval Bulgarian. This comes from 18 century, when Bulgarian language has been changed and took another path of evolution. We still understand a lot of our Serbian and Slavonic brothers words, it is just sound if they did travelled in time. I'm curious, while we understand Serbians and Slovenians, does they understand our altered language?
