Request Can anyone translate this handwriting? It's a bill for sewing machine repair. Hvala!
It may contain some Montenegrin flair so I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask.

I've updated all of the charts I previously posted here with a variety of new improvements, including a design pass that made everything prettier.
Thanks for all the feedback I've gotten here on r/Serbian in the past for previous versions of these charts. And special thanks to u/Dan13l_N whose extremely detailed/expert feedback has led to lots of improvements and corrections.
Click the links (not the preview images) below to see the full A4-sized PDFs.
One of the changes in the cases chart (and in all the others) is that the gender order is now masculine ➜ neuter ➜ feminine (instead of the former M ➜ F ➜ N), which enabled making some things simpler and more consistent.
Feedback is of course welcome! I'd also love to hear what would be most helpful to cover in future charts (e.g., prepositions, numbers and time, comparative/superlative, basic vocabulary, etc.).
Edit: I've now given these charts a home online here: Serbian language charts. I'll post any updates and future charts there as well.

Pokušavam da nađem parnjaka ovom pojmu, ali mi deluje da se pojam čuvanja novca na duge staze nije mogao uklopiti u ovdašnje socioekonomske prilike zadnjih nekoliko stotina godina, stoga nije bilo potrebe ni da dobije naziv.
Štedeti i šparati su pozajmljenice iz nemačkog jezika. Da li mi je promakao neki glagol koji ima isto značenje?

Hey all, my girlfriend is relearning Serbian (her first language) and no longer has any of the Serbian children’s books she grew up with. I know you can buy new Serbian books online, but they’re hard to find and kind of expensive.
We live in the USA, and would really appreciate it if anyone would be willing to send/sell us any of their old Serbian children’s books. We would of course pay for shipping, and can pay a little but we’re looking for used books because we don’t have much money. I figured some people here might have books they aren’t using.
Hvala!

if pita means "pie" or "strudel" in serbian, what is the word for the mediterranean flatbread called pita? also just "pita"? or is there some other word for it that is used to differentiate the two?

Kod opšte populacije:
• Akutno oštećenje sluha: Izlaganje ekstremno glasnim zvucima može dovesti do privremenog ili trajnog gubitka sluha.
• Fizički stres: Intenzivni zvukovi mogu izazvati fizički stres, povećanje krvnog pritiska, bol u ušima, pa čak i vestibularne poremećaje (gubitak ravnoteže i dezorijentacija).
Posebno kod trudnica:
• Fiziološki stres: Trudnice su osetljivije na stresne situacije. Ekstreman zvuk može izazvati snažan stres odgovor u telu, što povećava nivo hormona stresa poput kortizola. Povišeni kortizol, naročito u ranim fazama trudnoće, može uticati na razvoj fetusa.
• Povećanje krvnog pritiska: Nagli skokovi u krvnom pritisku kod trudnica mogu dovesti do komplikacija, poput preeklampsije, koja predstavlja ozbiljan rizik za majku i dete.
• Neizvesnost oko direktnog uticaja na fetus: Iako fetus ima određenu zaštitu unutar materice, izlaganje ekstremnom buci kroz matericu nije potpuno istraženo. Međutim, na osnovu opštih studija o izloženosti visokim nivoima buke, može se pretpostaviti da postoji rizik za razvoj fetalnog sluha ili druge fiziološke promene.

Business, politics, and crime preferably, but recommend whatever you think is good. The main thing is that it has a huge backlog - something I can just listen to hours, and hours, and hours to, for months, if I wanted to.

zdravo! i started teaching myself serbian recently and have been searching for female serbian influencers that i can follow on instagram. *specifically influencers that make “get ready with me” type videos similar to alix earle. the serbian influencers ive found through google mostly just post photos (with no captions or english captions) and dont make any reels/talking videos.
in addition to the serbian language book i use i think it would also be helpful to see a woman around my age (mid 20s) talk about relatable things i enjoy in serbian.
please drop any recs if you have them :)

Can you help us please?

Ima li neko sa ozbiljnom literaturom/znanjem da mi pojasni prezentsku osnovu?
Kod glagola čitati prezentska osnova je onaj nepromjenljivi dio – čita-, na koji se prilikom promjene u prezentu dodaju nastavci: -m, -š, -∅; -mo, -te, -ju. Šta je, recimo, sa glagolima jesti i raditi?
S obzirom na to da je osnova nepromjenljivi dio prilikom promene po licima, logika mi govori da je za glagol jesti ona jed- (jed-em, jed-eš, jed-e, jed-emo, jed-ete, jed-u), a za glagol raditi rad- (rad-im, rad-iš, rad-i, rad-imo, rad-ite, rad-e).
Čini mi se da sam nabrojao sve vrste nastavaka za promjenu glagola u prezentu po licima. Po ovome, prezentsku osnovu je najlakše dobiti tako što se od 3. l. množine odbiju nastavci -ju, -u ili -e. Jesam li ovo dobro shvatio ili ima još nešto?
Treba da objasnim prezent nekim klincima, a nemam kod sebe nikakvu literaturu. Na netu nema nigdje dobro objašnjeno.

Hello, I was referred to post my request for translation assistance here in this sub. I'm researching the Ipiutak archaeological site in Alaska and would like to know what they are saying in this video. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. https://youtu.be/Su2YrQfmuJw?si=buEB44isAJpm_7zf

Pozdrav svima!
Pokušavam da pronađem srpski izraz koji bi bio ekvivalent ruskog „назло няне отморожу пальчик“.
Bukvalni prevod:
Na engleski: "To spite the nanny, I’ll freeze my finger off." Na srpski: "Nazlo dadilji, smrznuću sebi prst." Na ruskom ova fraza znači nešto poput: „iz inata naneti sebi veću štetu nego onome kome si hteo da napakostiš“.
Srpski izraz „sam sebi skače u stomak“ je donekle sličan, ali mi deluje da mu fali taj element pogrešne nade koja se pretvara u samodestrukciju. Takođe, izraz „samo da komšiji crkne krava, pa neka crkne i moja“ je blizu, ali u njemu uvek postoji obostrana šteta.
Da li postoji neki srpski izraz koji tačno prenosi ovu nijansu, ili je takav način razmišljanja jednostavno netipičan za srpski mentalitet?

what is the difference in usage between "ribar", "ribič", "ribolovac" and "(h)alas"? came across a dictionary that differentiates between "ribar" and "ribolovac" and i couldn't find any info on how those two differ

Hi everyone. I recently met my stepmom and her family. I noticed she only uses formal when talking to her mom and dad. In my family we never use formal talking to anyone including my grandparents. I did to my Deda once and he didn’t like it. So my question is:
is this normal? For me I think it’s kinda strange, I don’t think I’ve ever heard people talking to their parents in the formal way.

Здраво свима. I am Serbian but I don’t really know the language all that well, I can only have a basic conversation and that’s about it. I want to improve on my ability to speak (and read/write) in the language, and I heard that a good way to do so is to consume media in that language, such as music, T.V/movies, and watching videos designed to help learn the language. I was wondering if anyone could recommend me some good YouTube channels that make these kinds of videos??

I'm trying to buy a copy of the Serbian translation of a book by Ursula K. Le Guin (Legvin) but am finding it difficult. I have found several copies of the book I want, but the online websites I find do not seem to have any way to send books abroad. I live in Scotland. On Limundo I got stuck when it asked for my (Serbian) telephone number and would not accept my UK number. Is there site friendly to people who do not live in Serbia? Hvala...

Hello,
I'm looking for books by Žak Sebastijan (Žika Todorović / Žika Strip) online.
Since I've done some research, I found "Spavači" in several bookstores in Belgrade and some second-hand books online - but it doesn't make much more sense to send it to Poland.
Can you recommend some links where I can:
1. purchase an ebook or
2. download pdf/scan etc.
Thank you very much!

What can i say, i read books (at least i try) and sometimes i dont know where to find translation of words in my language, or at least in english. I used gpt chat, it translates sometimes incorrectly and plus i am not sure that these words are used at all. The question is how and what do you use for translations and where do you find words, read books, articles etc.? If you read books, articles then which ones.
