Croatian is spoken by approximately 7 million people, of which 4 million live in Croatia. People also speak Croatian in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Vojvodina, Slovenia and other southeast European countries. Croatian is very similar to the Bosnian, Montenegrin and Serbian standard language, which means that the speakers of those languages can easily communicate with each other. Croatian has a melodic word accent and therefore counts as a tone language. This means that the tone pitch of the stressed syllable and the tone pitch progression contribute to the meaning of the word. In the standard language Croatian distinguishes between a rising and a falling tone. Go to top Language courses Croatian Exams Language courses Croatian
