Serbian Podcast

There are numerous podcasts in Serbian which you can follow through this link. Simply choose your topic of interest and voila! Today I'd like to recommend you Književni Centar za Ljubitelj(k)e Blejanja and their podcast about Netflix series.

Serbian Podcast with Exercises

I have created an exercise with useful collocations to talk about filmography. Let's listen to the first eight minutes and try to understand the gist of each topic.

After that, listen to it again and try to do my exercise:

Marina Learn Serbian Podcast , Listening comprehension

Today's video lesson based on authentic listening material is all about food! Let's watch and listen to Miodrag Petrović Čkalja, one of the most famous Serbian actors in a short excerpt from Kamiondžije (always listed in top ten Serbian series).

The question is what was he eating = šta je jeo and why different cases in one sentence?

Serbian Language Day 7 - Video Series, Films and Podcasts for learning Serbian

Marina Learn Serbian Podcast , Listening comprehension

Youtube is a great source of unique and authentic materials for learning Serbian, which I have been sharing with you under "listening comprehension" tag. One of the best and most comprehensible TV series for learning the Serbian language are surely ancient "Neven", as well as "Poletarac", directed by Timothy Byford and featuring the most prominent actors, actresses and sportsmen from ex-Yugoslavia in the early eighties.

Watch the first part of "Poletarac" and you'll see why it can come in handy when learning Serbian:

1. Part one about swimming (plivanje) and knowing (znanje) from the beginning to minute 3:00

plivati = to swim
znati = to know, can (I can swim = Znam da plivam)
ko zna da pliva = who knows to / can swim ?
osim = except
žaba = frog
imati = to have
da li žaba ima zube ? = does a frog have teeth ?
ne znam = I don't know

2. Part two about telling the time (koliko je sati) and numbers (from 3:00-4:00)

koliko je sati ? = what's the time ?
sada je tačno jedan sat = it's one o'clock sharp
jedan i dva SU tri = one and two are three
ovo je jedna žaba = this is a frog
ovo su dve žabe = these are two frogs
lopta je okrugla = the ball is round
Zemlja je okrugla = the Earth is round

3. Part three about APPLES (from 5:30)

jabuka = an apple
koliko imate jabuka = how many apples do you have ?
imam tri jabuke = I have three apples
ljuštiti = to peal

4. Part four about UP and DOWN (from 6.30)

sad = now
gore = up
dole = down
sad sam dole = now I'm down
sad sam gore = now I'm up
visoko = high
nisko = low

5: Part five with the short answers (from 8:00)

Da li imam zube = Do I have teeth ?
Imam = I do
imati = to have
Da li sam zelen kao žaba ? = Am I green like a frog ?
Nisam = I'm not
skakati = to jump
Da li skačem kao žaba ? = Do I jump like a frog ?

6: Part six - thanking and greetings

hvala = thank you
doviđenja = goodbye
hvala Vam najlepše = many thanks
drago mi je = I'm glad

7. Part seven (from 10:50) about bees and numbers

ovo je ... = this is...
pčela = bee
hive = košnica
fabrika = factory
roj (pčela) = swarm
med = honey
ko bude jeo..., biće ... = the one who eats..., he'll be...

365 Days of Learning Serbian

Marina how to learn Serbian , Learn Serbian online

I've recently reread a great book "First Things First" by Stephen Covey and it reminded me, yet again, how important it is to organize our activities well and dedicate our time to people we love and things that matter. Learning a new language on a daily basis, or any other skill for that matter, can make a huge difference in the long run, once we urgently need it.

That's why it struck me that I should use this blog, and all the digital teaching content I've created in years, not only to encourage you to perservere, but provide you with meaningful and graded content to learn Serbian regularly. Even if you skip a day or two, or an entire week/month, you know that you have everything in one place, right here !

Представница Србије Мина Милутиновић победила на такмичењу “Miss World Next Top Model”!

Победница на овогодишњем такмичењу “Miss World Next Top Model” у Бејруту је представница Србије Мина Милутиновић. Мина се у оштрој конкуренцији лепотица из целог света истакла харизмом, маркантним цртама лица и савршеном фигуром.
Седамнаестогодишња представница Србије из Смедеревске Паланке освојила је прво место и заслужено однела победу у оштрој борби 38 лепотица, а поред круне и ленте, добила је и огрлицу. Друго место припало је представници Тајланда Каники Кункаео, док се на трећем месту нашла Улијана Бердишева, представници Русије.

Четврто место заузела је Дијана Милојковић, такође из Србије, која је поред ове титуле понела и ленту за најлепшу вечерњу тоалету.
Мина је чланица модне агенције “Crystal Model Agency”.

Serbian School Activator Revisited

Marina Learn Serbian online , Learn Serbian Podcast

In January I proudly presented my most beautiful site, www.skolasrpskog.com and the new concept of teaching Serbian online, which I called SkolaSrpskog Activator. It's been working for six months now, and I am really satisfied with all the language materials I've created in this period:

1. My Youtube channel www.youtube.com/learnserbian has 100 videos more (there were only about 20 up to 2011, and now there are 125, with 99 being visible).

2. The initial concept of an online session which was to consist of a language exercise, recipe and a song, has been changed, according to the feedback of all the subscribers. Still, at the end of each session, we enjoy singing one of the songs which I carefully choose each week.

3. I started adding all the explanations and exercises into pdf files, and also creating fun quizzes with the instand feedback. Some of the pages based on the situational phrases can be downloaded in pdf format from www.SkolaSrpskog.com.

4. During Easter, I organized some kind of an "online language quest" and we all had fun chasing Easter eggs on the site (some of them are still hidden there :) and doing fun exercises in Serbian. Some of the participants won free SkolaSrpskog Activator subscription, some won free 1:1 lessons, and I won many new friends and great ideas for our lessons :-)

5. I started gathering anonymous feedback, and here are just a few lines:
"Everything is super"
"I appreciate the amount of work the instructor puts into the experience. The YouTube videos are helpful"
"Everithing, and my teacher is lovely and flexibile, she love teaching us"

However, all that I've done and created so far is hardly mentioning in comparison to the effort my students have put into their work. They regularly attend the lessons and I am really proud of each one of them.

Today, on Britannia bookshop site, one of my most proficient students of Serbian, Jelena from Санкт-Петербург, Russia published the first part of our interview, which was very much inspired by our SkolaSrpskog Activator lessons.

Hvala Jelena i hvala svim đacima, Jani, Fabijanu, Matiji, Lari, Mirku, Milici, Toniju, Silvini, Ljubi i Tini na ukazanom poverenju, istrajnosti i velikom trudu :) U avgustu ćemo napraviti mali raspust, i onda opet nastavljamo sa časovima u septembru.

For all of you who'd like to learn more about SkolaSrpskog Activator, do join FB SkolaSrpskog Podcast group and you will be invited to attend our Third Friday Free Serbian lessons.
