Nearby words: basic words
Yes, no, good, bad, very. The small change of a language — and no sentence assembles without it.
- даdayesAlso the linker before verbs: hocu da idem — "I want to go". Serbian almost never uses the infinitive after a main verb; da plus the present does the job.
- неnenoOne word for the answer "no" and for negating any verb: ne razumem — "I do not understand". No helper verb, just put ne in front.
- доброdobrofineThe standard answer to kako si: dobro sam — "I am fine". Well-being, approval, acceptable plans — one word covers them all.
- лошеlošebadlyš sounds like "sh" in "ship". The plain opposite of dobro — use it for how you feel or how things went.
- одличноodličnoexcellentThe adverb from odlican, "excellent". In Serbian schools odlican is also the top grade — the straight-A word.
- иiandAlso an emphatic "even": i on je došao — "even he came". Position in the sentence tells the two jobs apart.
- алиalibutOpens the second clause, as in English. After a negative, Serbian switches to nego: nije čaj, nego kafa — "not tea but coffee".
- половинаpolovinahalfThe short form pola is more frequent: pola kile, pola sata.
- не треба миne treba miI do not need itImpersonal treba: the needed thing stands in the plain form — ne treba mi kesa — "I do not need a bag".
- још једанjoš jedanone moreWith feminine nouns: još jedna; neuter: još jedno. The order phrase that never stops being useful.
