    My Croatian language online video courses are a great way to start learning right now, at your own pace, and also to use as a support for individual or group lessons because they're packed with information and you can rewatch them as many times as you want.
    The video lessons are short and simple, so you can start even if you have only 15 extra minutes a day.
    They are similar to my free UA-cam videos, but the courses have structured and organized video lessons, e-books and quizzes for practicing after each video lesson. They're awesome and if you are considering enrolling, you definetely should! These courses are perfect for beginner learners who are looking to have the best experience in Croatia!

    I have been teaching Croatian for English and Spanish speakers for several years, and through that experience have created a simple, fun, and effective way of learning the language, for children, as well as for adults.
    Languages are important and they are one of my passions, so I really enjoy teaching and sharing that knowledge.
    That is also the reason why I include a short Croatian lesson in most of my UA-cam videos, so feel free to binge-watch them to learn some new Croatian words and expressions.

    My father was born there and I was there when I was 10. That was 55 years ago. My mothers parents were born there also. My parents spoke to me in Yugoslavian but I always spoke back to them in English. I only spoke it when I was there in 1969. I was in Kostreana. Don't know if that is the correct spelling. Thanks for jogging my memory.

    • @spatrk6634
      @spatrk6634 Рік тому +1

      evo is casual, you would say it to your friend.
      izvoli is more polite version of it
      but when you want to be polite we speak to single person as if they are plural.
      so it would be "izvolite" instead of "izvoli"

    How old is this black oil in the fryer?
    ( Koliko je staro ovo crno ulje u fritezi? )
    Why is there no leftover food in the trash can?
    ( Zašto nema ostataka nepojedene hrane u kanti za otpatke? )
    Do you throw away uneaten food or serve it to another guest?
    ( Da li bacate ostatke nepojedene hrane ili ih servirate drugom gostu?)
    Why do you keep expired foods in the fridge?
    ( Zašto držite u frižideru namirnice kojima je istekao rok trajanja? )

      the name of the diffrent accents are based off the way how you say "how"
      čakavski - ča
      štokavski - što
      kajkavski - kaj

    I'm currently in 2nd year croatian but i feel like I might as well be in the 1st month. it is so confusing, I can't wait to compliment my class with your videos...please don't stop! I've found many other croatian channels but none have been updated or they are too simple and not caring about grammar. I have to care cause if I see things spelled differently which they often are then I'm confused so I've learned about cases, future, past, present, comparative, imperative, but you wouldn't think so, I may be able to come up with it if I sit here and think for a few minutes but you can't talk like that! anyways will definitely be looking forward to gledati još tvoj kanal! or would it be gledam, i meant to say watching more if your channel so I think gledati?
