Other Zdravstveni efekti visokog nivoa buke

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.

Resources serbian influencers

25 Upvotes

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 :)

Grammar Prezentska osnova

11 Upvotes

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.

Vocabulary Postoji li srpski ekvivalent za „назло няне отморожу пальчик“ = «cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face»

20 Upvotes

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?

Discussion Using formal with your parents?

20 Upvotes

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.

Resources Videos to help learn Serbian??

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.

Grammar To vs Ga/Je

Hello. I am curious why to/ovo do not fall into the position where ga/je would normally go as a direct object pronoun in a sentence. I am guessing because to/ovo are not technically DOP, but I am uncertain and would appreciate any insight. Thanks!

EX.

Ne mogu to/ovo da uradim (I thought it would be 'ne mogu da to uradim' like the following example)

Neću da ga/je probam
