Learn Serbian with real humans

Serbian is spoken by 12 million people, primarily in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro. A rare particularity: Serbian is the only European language that is officially digraphic, it can be written interchangeably in Cyrillic (Ћирилица) and in the Latin alphabet (latinica). Serbia is an EU candidate country, growing economically, with Belgrade emerging as the Balkans' tech hub. Understanding Serbian also gives you access to Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin, mutually intelligible languages.

Did you know? Serbian is a South Slavic language with a remarkable phonology: pitch accents (rising/falling, long/short tones) make it a uniquely musical language in Europe. Serbian Cyrillic was codified by Vuk Stefanović Karadžić in the 19th century according to the principle 'write as you speak, read as it's written', which makes it a highly phonetic language. Belgrade, the capital, is known for its legendary nightlife and the EXIT festival, one of the largest in Europe. Serbia has given the world Nikola Tesla and Novak Djokovic.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about learning Serbian

Not strictly required, but strongly recommended. Serbian is officially written in both alphabets, and most signs, newspapers and official documents use both. Serbian Cyrillic has 30 letters and can be learned in 1 week. The bonus: mastering Cyrillic also gives you access to Russian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian.
Linguistically, they are very close and mutually intelligible (often grouped under 'BCMS'). The main differences are vocabulary (Turkish borrowings in Bosnian, Latin ones in Croatian), alphabet (Cyrillic + Latin in Serbian, Latin only in Croatian) and some grammatical variations. Learning Serbian gives you access to all three countries and their 20 million speakers.
Yes. Belgrade is increasingly attracting startups and multinationals thanks to low costs and excellent technical talent. Serbia is an EU candidate, making it a market with strong potential. Companies like NCR, Nordeus, Levi9 and many IT firms have significant offices there.
Serbian has 7 grammatical cases, which is a real challenge. But unlike Polish or Russian, the pronunciation is highly phonetic (you read as you write), which simplifies learning. Pitch accents are difficult at first but rarely block communication. With 6 months of regular practice, fluent conversations are within reach.
The US FSI classifies Serbian in Category 3 (about 1,100 hours to mastery). For an English speaker with 2 classes per week, conversational B1 is achievable in 9 to 12 months. If you already have a foundation in Russian, Polish or another Slavic language, progress will be significantly faster.

Been on Targumi for 3 months. The small group format is exactly what I needed. My teacher takes time to correct accent, it's precious. Made more progress in 3 months than in 2 years of regular apps.

What sold me is you actually speak from class one. No 10 hours of theory before opening your mouth. And the platform between classes is well-built, I revise on the morning commute.

DamienVerified purchase

Honestly I had doubts at first because I'd tried plenty of methods without sticking. This is different, the teacher knows their stuff, adapts to your level, and we have fun on top of it. 6 months in and still motivated.

SorayaVerified purchase

Really good experience overall, the rhythm between live classes and independent practice is well-balanced. Small note: the mobile app lags sometimes, but the teaching content is well worth the price.

AntoineVerified purchase

The thing that makes a real difference compared to other platforms: teachers are native and trained. You feel it, especially on accent and everyday expressions you don't learn in textbooks.
