A society of people can call themselves whatever they like. And they can call
their language whatever they like too, unless that language is used by another society as well, in which case it would be a rational decision to make up a compromised name. I suggest Illyrian (as a foreign historical name) or Dinaric (after the mountain range that spans throughout Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Montenegro), and that they add whatever adjective they want before this name, after the model American/British/Canadian/Australian English > Serbian/Croatian/Bosniak/Montenegrin Illyrian/Dinaric. I rest my case. Edited by Delodephius on 21 January 2012 at 3:02am 4 persons have voted this message useful | |

Found this on the internet. Haven't looked at it in much depth, but it seems to be dense and possibly helpful. I'm too early to really get any use out of it, but maybe some advanced BCS learners would like to have a look at it. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

This grammar is pretty accurate (although more descriptive than normative) ;)

This Basic Croatian blog has been very helpful to me. I don't know if it's complete enough to be standalone, but it helps me clear up grammar points when I'm fuzzy on something.

That is indeed a very good blog, Kerrie. When I first found it, I was impressed by the degree to which the blogger made fairly little of Croatian's distinctiveness from the other variants while presenting helpfully how the grammar functions.

If anyone wants a good way to practice their BCSM, Al Jazeera has a BCSM language channel
you can watch online or on you iPhone. It's called Al Jazeera Balkans and it's headquartered in Sarajevo. I'm def glad it exists as it's a great source of real info too. Al Jazeera Balkans 3 persons have voted this message useful |
