JJ you're right about sentences, but not exactly good translation. You found point...
I'll write in cyrillic font:
за Србију, српство и православље [za Srbiju,srpstvo i pravoslavlje]
For Serbia, Serbian nationality and Orthodoxy
Тигровци (Аркановци) Србијо! [Tigrovi (Arkanovci) Srbijo!]
Tigers (Arkan's) Serbia!
Кунем ти се Богом, шта год да се деси, ја остајем с тобом! [Kunem ti se Bogom, sta god da se desi, ja ostajem s tobom!]
I swear to God, whatever happens, I stay with you!
Бранити и погинути за Србију, српство и православље је херојски чин и рај је тим особама сигуран! [Braniti i poginuti za Srbiju, Srpstvo i Pravoslavlje je herojski cin i raj je tim osobama siguran!]

Отпор Србије, чуо се до неба! [Otpor Srbije, cuo se do neba!]
Resistance of Serbia, was heard up to the sky!
С ВЕРОМ У БОГА, СЛОБОДА ИЛИ СМРТ [S VEROM U BOGA, SLOBODA ILI SMRT]
With belief in God, freedom or death.
Само слога Србина спашава [Samo Sloga Srbina Spasava]
Only accord saves the Serb
These are very nationalistic stuff...
thank you very much JJ and Vlacko!
yes, these sentences are very nationalistic, I found these around sites about cetniks movement ecc..
Vlacko, in Cyrillic this text is more understandable. I could guess that Кунем ти се Богом (it sounds almost like клянусь/клянёмся богом) could be i/we swear to God, and чин in this context means act (such as почин in russian) чуять - to hear in ukrainian( to feel in russian) and I would never confuse ста/шта and so on.
BTW бранить in modern russian means to abuse, although we still use поле брани as battlefield so i thought бранити means to fight.
JJ how do you know Serbian?
Здраво people! Како сте? Јесам овде први раз и имам огрешки за језик :oops: Молим вас да кажем ако где је моји огрешки :lol:
Надам се на ваше помоћ :wink:

Right sentence should be:
Ја сам овде први пут и имам грешака у језику
I suppose you wanted to say that.
Молим вас да кажем ако где је моји огрешки [grammaticly tottaly wrong]
Молим вас да ми кажете где су моје грешке
Надам се на ваше помоћ
Надам се вашој помоћи
Slawnik you're not bad for begginer. Welcome here! :wink:
Хвала Vlacko! You are right, I'm only a beginer in serbian. There is a strong fraud in similarity of russian and serbian. And it's a trap for me :(
If I want to say something in serbian and I don't know how it to do I use russian words remaking them in serbian style and sometimes grammar :oops: That is why I need a good lernbook of serbian and OF COURSE help of native serbian sreakers as you. So I guess you will not be angry if I would do some mistakes :lol:
Још пут хвала!
Vlacko, I dont know Srpski. I'm just native Russian. There are a lot the same things in both languages, the same old slavic roots of the words. When I read the serbian sites i can easy get up to 60-70% of text, though it depends on context. Btw, raeding Bulgarian is much easyer. Polish and Czech are a bit harder to understand becouse they are not in Cyrillic. :)Quote:

P.S.S. Slawnik I also expect a help from you and other Russian members for me and my Russian language, which is still very weak.
JJ name of our language we write with small letters. srpski [correct], Srpski [wrong, exept in hte begining of the sentence]Quote:

E.G. :
реч [word], речь [speach]
сахранити [to bury], сохранить [to keep]
слово [letter], слово [word]...
...or that example from Unilang :lol:
понос
Russian: diarrhoea
Serbian: pride
I've just wrote it using the English rules. :)Quote:

E.G. :
сахранити [to bury], схоронить - sounds like схаранить [to have buried]
слово [letter, oration], слово [word, story - "Слово о полку Игореве"] If you want to see no simillarities - ok, let's stop useless talking about it.
I didn't say that there are no simillarities, absoluely oposite, there are simillarities, but they through the ages, changed their meaning... Our two languages are simillar, adn anyone who says different is lying.
" Још пут хвала" I wanted to say " Thanks ones more" One of the main difference between serbian and russian is in infinitive. We say Я хочу спросить but serbian say Ја хоћу да питам.
"Thanks ones more" could be translated Хвала још једном! or more poetical Још једном хвала!
Yes it is, and the absense of auxilliary verb in Russian.
So, if you have some questions about russian leave me a private message or ask right here. I will the same (about serbian).
OK! :wink:
all slavik languages have some close words..
I was suprised that "kino" is in a lot of languages.
do Serb, Bos, and Croation use KAK? I know Russian does, and Polish uses Yak.
I know Godzina is in Bosnian as well for hour?
Ukrainian uses ЯкQuote:

Yes, many languages have kino. I think the word is originally german though.Quote:

Thanks for clearing that up, it's pretty neat/weird/amazing how languages change stuff as they move away...Quote:

Stjepan, "Kino" is in German the short form of "Kinematograph" (nobody uses Kinomatograph anymore, it's from the 19th century ;) )) and it derived from the Greek genitive form of "kinema" (movement) => "kinematos", and from the Greek word "graphein" (to write).
Yes - DaQuote:

Thank you - Hvala
You're welcome - Nema na čemu or molim. Molim has a other uses too, like saying please and literally means more like "I beg" but you say it after someone says hvala to you, like "your welcome" in english.. It's kind of like German bitte.
No, Serbian, Bosnian and Croatian don't use KAK!Quote:

Oh...yes, thanks Antono. :oops:
Hi Valcko,
can I ask you just a little thing??
what's the meaning of the three fingers? do you understand what I mean?
thank you?
Three fingers symbolizes freedom. Three fingers, make F. F like freedom.
great Vlacko thank you very much
