U ovoj epizodi govorimo o greškama koje Srbi prave dok govore - i da, i mi ih takođe (često) pravimo.

Kao što smo rekle u prošloj epizodi, greške su normalne u svakom jeziku: prave ih i matenji govornici (Srbi), i učenici. Jedina razlika je što su greške drugačije.

Razgovaramo takođe o tome šta se dešava ako mnogo ljudi govori jedno, iako je to "gramatički netačno" - ali, ako to skoro svi koriste u svakodnevnom govoru, da li je stvarno pogrešno?

Koje je vaše mišljenje o ovome? Da li mislite da jezik treba prirodno da se menja, ili treba da pazimo na gramatiku? Pišite nam na TikToku, Instagramu ili YouTube-u!

In today's episode, we are discussing the mistakes that Serbians make while speaking - and yes, we also (often) make them, too.

As we said in the last episode, mistakes are normal in any language: both native speakers (Serbians) and students make them. The only difference is that the errors are different.

We also talk about what happens if a lot of people say one thing, even though it's "grammatically incorrect" - but, if almost everyone uses it in everyday speech, is it really wrong?

What do you think about this? Do you think language should change naturally, or should we be careful about grammar? Write to us on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube!
