Serbian alphabet

Hello my dear friend!

You told me that you are enthusiastic for learning Serbian and that surpriced me

and made me really happy :D Thats why I decided to make something for

you Hope you will have fun

I will write the explanations in english, but I will try to write examples in

Spanish I apologize in advance if I make some mistakes

Lets start?!

First let me say something about Serbian alphabet.

Serbian alphabet has 30 letters (characters). Their origin is from old slavic

language of which most of the slavic languages developed (like Russian,Macedonian, Croatian ) Thats why there are a lot of similarities between

those languages today

Back to the alphabet as I said, there are 30 letters in Serbian. The alphabet is

called . The easy thing is that every letter has one and only one

pronunciation no matter in which context that letter is used. Once you learn the

pronunciation, you can easily read anything written in Serbian. You wont

understand what you are reading :D but thats a beginning :D

Ready to start??

Here are the letters first

I wrote both uppercase and lowercase letters because sonetimes there are slight

differences between writing those two
