History of Serbian

Serbian developed from South Slavic and was reformed by Vuk Stefanović Karadžić in the 19th century to follow the principle 'write as you speak.' Serbian Orthodox tradition uses Cyrillic, but Latin script is equally common in daily life. Serbia's history as Yugoslavia's largest republic influenced the entire region.

Is Serbian Hard to Learn?

Hard

Serbian has seven cases and complex verb aspects, but uniquely uses both Cyrillic and Latin alphabets interchangeably. Spelling is perfectly phonetic—write what you hear. Learning Serbian opens understanding of Croatian and Bosnian.
