Basic differences among BCS (Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian, and the youngest one, Montenegrin) languages are: stress and intonation mostly, vocabulary and sentence structures (just a few). There is a detailed explanation at Wikipedia (http://tiny.pl/3vgg)

Thanks for joining the group. I am sure you will enjoy following the links I will be posting here:

Šta radim sada?

zdravo !!!!

I saw Veer-Zaara and also thought it was very moving with beautiful songs. Preita Zinta is not a very good dancer, but she is so cute, I forgive her all trifles. When she is well-cast she does a good job.

The Devdas with SRK and Aish was very lush and some of the songs are lovely but something about it annoyed me. I didn’t believe the love story between SRK and Aish (who is a terrible actress but a lovely performer imo) and it just seemed to drag on and on. It was a good message movie against drunkenness thought I guess – lol.

An actress and performer I really like who was in Devdas is Madhuri Dixit. She is in one of my favorite Bollywood movies, Hum Aapke Hai Koun and in Dil with Aamir Khan and a lot of other movies. She is always great – an amazing dancer. I also like her in Sajaan with Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt.

LOVE Aamir Khan. One of my faves of his is Raja Hindustani with Karishma Kapoor (also a very good actress) which has a very dramatic romantic story line and great dancing and songs. Mangal Pandey doesn’t have much dancing but it is one of his greats. I like it better than Lagaan, which was very popular in the west. Similar themes.

One could go on and on about SRK films so I won’t. I will say that Badshaah is extremely funny though and my teenage American sons even know some of the sons and like to dance like SRK when he is doing the blind man dance in that hotel TOTAL HOOT!

I have not seen a lot of the recent Hindi films but I have seen a lot of the dance numbers because I watch a weekly show called Namaste America which features Bollywood videos and gossip as well as Indian news.

Hi Antonio and Nadia! I invite you both to join the group Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian, Montenegrin for tourists , where I posted a detailed answer with the link to Wikipedia.

Is it possible for a user to submit flash cards? I’m looking around but having no luck.

Congratulations!!!

Actually, I’m in. Looking forward!

This looks great. Unfortunately I am busy at that time, but I would take it at another time. Anyone else interested in learning Hindi/Bollywood song lyrics?

We need one more person to make a class to learn to read Hindi script – Devanagari. Learning Devanagari will make it so that you can read (at least sound out) Hindi, Marathi, Nepali and Sanskrit! If anyone else is interested, please register at

There are three of us students right now but we need at least one more to make the class happen. Devanagari is cool – join us! :-)

Are you kidding? OBAMA all the way. lol

Thanks, Sandra. :-)

Good idea! :-)
