is it worth to learn croatian language for a south korean geek? or is it useless? tell me the good and bad things of croatia?

I think any language you learn will expand your ways of thinking and Croatian is no exception, but can I ask you what is the reason you would like to learn it?
>>
>>60615011
I would recommend learning Russian,its used more and Croatians might understand a bit because its also a Slavic Language

maybe? iust interesting and their history also i like the style of their football team

Not really, why would you want to learn it.

Hardly, someone could make out few words here and there.
Its same as learning English to understand German

is the difference between russian and croatian huge?

>>60615284
Language sounds familiar, you can even make out few words, but Croat and Russian wont understand each other

>>60615011
I was gonna memearrow the words Croatian and language, but the mature Serb poster convinced me to cleanpost.

i've heard croatia's safety is nicest in the balkans most south koreans are sensitive to safety issues because most foreign countries are far more anxious to south korea's safety

Are there even any good (and cheap if possible) sources to learn (Serbo-)Croatian?

There's no such thing as beach thieves in Croatia in my experience. Maybe on city beaches, but I've never been on holiday in one of their cities. Most people go to remote islands and rent out a house or pitch a tent in a camp full of westerners who will guarantee for your belongings.

>>60615463
I may have exaggerated their poverty and right-wing orientation. Croatia does not feel lacking in infrastructure or suffering from urban decay in the last. The seaside towns are almost indistinguishable from Italian ones.
>>
>>60615011
Nope

Korean in Croatia here, pretty chill place. If you wanna learn Croatian, try complete immersion. Cost of living is pretty cheap too.

i'm a ''muh heritage'' chilean, would i be welcome in croatia?
>>
>>60615210
Well, the language will be hard to learn for a Far East Asian, just as you would expect, but you will learn the basics fast with the locals.

Good things about Croatia would be the natural beauty and sometimes architectural beauty too. The people are friendly and it would be easy to get along if you are willing to assimilate to their ways and their culture, like anywhere else in the world.

The bad things are the big differences between people, Croatians are very diverse bunch and not all Croatians get along with other Croatians from different regions of Croatia. Other things are probably the things you would encounter in any other countries, I would say

That's easy; because Bosnian Emperor Tvrtko (also known as Haris Mehmetović to his subjects) conquered it from the Italians.

>>60617057
Bosnia is literally a meme country. Where in some parts Serbs live nowadays it used to be where Croats lived, where in some parts Croats and Serbs live there sprouted a meme """"Bosniak"""" ethnicity. Muslim Croats and Serbs who embraced the religion of their conquerors. I don't have to be a Serb to recognise this. Any Croat with half a brain should recognise that Montenegro is Serbian, that Kosovo is Serbian and that Bosnia should not be a sovereign state. To claim Republika Srpska Krajina was a farce (and it was), but to believe and get happy when, for example, Montenegro secedes is infantile. It has the same right of being sovereign as Slavonia, even less so.

>>60617458
Which show?

yet another travel show showing how much koreans fantasize over western culture.
>>
>>60617616
Nah but Montenegro was sovereign during ww1 as well so I don't see a reason why they shouldn't be a sovereign state. The only sad part is distancing themselves from their serbian identity because of "Serbia". That and being a corrupt tourist shithole is at least better than being a landlocked touristless shithole.
>>
>>60617799
You have to understand that Slavonia was a Croatian kingdom. It stopped being separate long before Montenegro, but this is irrelevant. If you told Croats today that there was going to be a referendum on Slavonia seceding you would receive angry replies full of disbelief. Though I fear that might have something to do with the people not knowing their history.

Which is what I am saying. Being an independent unconquered state is still part of their "identity". And honestly I would not want them to rejoin Serbia just because the current political climate is a complete joke in both states.

He's being defensive because you attacked him for no reason

Turk: greek, why are your armies acting so defensive?
