The language situation in the territories comprising the former Yugoslavia is complicated, and many dialects and variations exist. However, by studying the language taught in this course, you will understand and be understood anywhere a version of Serbo-Croatian is spoken.

The course is made up of 50 units, each consisting of dialogs that present the new language as well as drills and exercises designed to let you practice what you have learned. Each unit is also accompanied by audio recordings to help you work on the pronunciation.
