Thank you for your comments on my emphasis on the lack of English language which is apparent in many places in Belgrade. It’s interesting that only Serbs seem to complain when I mention the lack of English signs, which feels a bit biased. My feedback is meant to highlight areas for improvement, like adding English signage and information at historical sites, which would make the city more accessible and enjoyable for tourists who do not speak Serbian.
I would protest against English signs. We don't care about westerners. Don't visit if you can't adapt or adjust to such a frivolous thing. You are the ONLY person who I have seen complain.
We have been through many hardhips, with anglo saxon nations being a root cause of our suffering. You have a lot of nerve. The LAST thing we are going to do is cater to the entitlement of your expectations.
i will not be so harsh as my countryman above, but you need to understand, this is serbia. official language is serbian and its primary cyrillic and then latin alphabet. english is spoken through the city, so people can help you if you show some effort to communicate with local population. and i am sure that many places are translated for tourists, but if not, your phone can do so in just few clicks. consider this lack of english signs as a bonus for your experience of serbia. but if its that much of a hassle, then i recommend london or new york as your destination where i am sure you will find plenty of english signs. maybe you will notice lack of french, german, russian, japanese, hindu, chinese, arabic translations in those places... when you visit more countries, you will find that majority do not translate to english everything. english may be most spoken, but its nowhere close to be enforced as a written language. even if it comes to that, serbia will be country to oppose such thing. all the best in your travels.
Alex, your observations are correct and a mayor of Belgrade has announced 3 months ago that all street signs would be uniformed and bilingual-- serbian kyrilic and english... People in Serbia are against everything new...it's hard to understand... There are "protesters" who are "guarding" old Sava bridge on wooden pillars which is literally on the verge of fallin in the river, built by f...gnazis 70 years ago, small, narrow and ugly as hell.. New spectacular one is comming but they don't want it?!?
Google translate mate. When we go to America, England do we expect to see info in Serbian😊. Ask anyone on the street and you would be amazed how well english is spoken amongst the
@AlexVentures.official Says who It is not the most spoken language in the world. Serbian people are so good, the perfect host in any meaning of the word. And having them explain and communicate with the people is more heart-warming than english signs. At the end of the day it is a great place to be💗
@@AlexVentures.officialAnd French is an international language, do you speak it? How do you find your way around Athens or Thessaloniki? Or in Budapest, Paris. Ask people in English and you'll get by. And buy a city map like I do.

I would protest against English signs. This entitled guy with an nypd hat wants us to relive past trauma which was at the hands of the 'English speaking world'.
