How to Introduce Yourself in Serbian Language - Video

INTRODUCTIONS AND GREETINGS IN SERBIAN LANGUAGE - VIDEO

When you start to learn Serbian, the first step is to learn how you may introduce yourself to somebody, in the family, at the party, or in some official occasion. With a help of Serbian teacher, this should be a piece of cake for you. 

First, take a look at the video:

In Serbian, you may introduce yourself in a several ways:

1)    Ja se zovem Ana. / Zovem se Ana. (I am called Ana.)
2)    Ja sam Ana. (I am Ana.)
3)    Moje ime je Ana.  / Ime mi je Ana. (My name is Ana.)

You may ask someone to introduce himself:

1)    Kako se ti zoveš? (How are you called?)
2)    Kako je tvoje ime? (What is your name?)
3)    Kako se Vi zovete?
4)    Kako je Vaše ime? (The last two have the same meaning as 1 and 2, but it's better to use 3 and 4 as the expressions of respect; In grammar this is called T-V distinction)

After introduction you might say:

1)    Drago mi je. (Nice to meet you. / I am glad.)

Greetings when you are entering the room:

1)    Zdravo. (Hi.)
2)    Ćao. (Ciao.)
3)    Dobar dan. / Dobro jutro. / Dobro veče. (Good afternoon. / Good morning. / Good evening. – more formal expressions than 1) and 2) )  

Greetings when you are leaving the room:

1)    Zdravo. (Bye.)
2)    Ćao. (Ciao.)
3)    Doviđenja. (Goodbye.)
4)    Vidimo se. (See you.) 

Good luck!
