Why Learn Croatian?

static block photo

Croatian is one of the main South Slavic languages and first rose to prominence in the 1700s when it took precedence over three variants of the modern Croatian language. Over 5 million people speak Croatian as their first language. It’s the official language of Croatia and an official language in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Vojvodina (a Serbian province), and Montenegro. More than 1 million people speak Croatian as their second language, and it is also a recognized minority language in Hungary, Italy, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. A source of national pride in Croatia, the Croatian language is celebrated and recognized from late February to mid-March every year.

Common Questions About Learning Croatian

Is Croatian a difficult language to learn?

If you try to learn Croatian the “old way” – marathon reading sessions, numerous rigid grammar lessons, and the like – the process is difficult. Thankfully, Pimsleur takes an innovative approach, with a focus on oral and aural skill development. You’ll learn the Croatian language the optimal way when you speak and listen. It’s similar to learning like a child, and we’ve found this way – based on the Pimsleur Method – the most effective way to learn to speak Croatian. Turn potential difficulties into definitive learning opportunities…take Croatian lessons with Pimsleur!

How long does it take to learn Croatian language?

Months, and maybe a year or more, if you’re using an outdated, ineffective language learning platform. Croatian courses shouldn’t take forever. Learning should be a natural, engaging, and even fun experience. That’s what Pimsleur offers; a powerful, proactive way to study the Croatian language. With our learning tools at your disposal, you’ll be speaking Croatian before you know it. In just 30 minutes per day, you’ll learn Croatian well enough to speak it conversationally. And even after your very first lesson, don’t be surprised if you’re already able to say basic words and phrases.

What are the main challenges when learning Croatian?

Croatian is a Slavic language, and like other languages in this category, definite and indefinite articles – those simple identifiers like “a” and “the” – don’t exist. That’s an awkward transition for most native English speakers. Three genders identify Croatian nouns (feminine, masculine, and neuter), and adjectives require modification to adjust for a noun’s gender, along with the singular or plural form. When you learn Croatian with Pimsleur, we’ll cover all the bases with our exercises – Lightbulb Moments, Voice Coach AI, Build Your Streak, and many more.

How important is pronunciation in learning Croatian?

Pimsleur places pronunciation near the apex of language learning factors. That means as you learn to speak Croatian, pronunciation is always a priority. And that’s important, given Crotian’s numerous vowel sounds, consonant clusters, and unique phonology (similar to other Slavic languages). To properly learn the Croatian language, you have to speak Croatian correctly, with the right pace, cadence, and inflections. Croatian has no silent letters, as you’ll discover with our helpful Voice Coach with AI pronunciation feedback tool. Rigorous study of the Croatian language involves the right pronunciation, and our Croatian lessons ensure you’re on top of your speaking game.

Are the Croatian courses suitable for complete beginners?

Are you totally clueless about Croatian? As long as you’re willing to learn, that’s not a problem with Pimsleur. We’ll help you learn Croatian with zero experience speaking the language. Our tools and resources to learn the Croatian language are designed with novices in mind. And remember, you can take your Croatian courses with you with the Pimsleur app – another bonus for beginners!
