Foreigners Speak Serbian #1
A German Speaks Serbian
Interview with Henning Jochem
How one German fell in love with the Slavic languages. He studied the English language and literature. Then he visited a friend in Poland and loved it there… Afterwards he visited Serbia and decided to start learning Serbian.
He is now fluent in Polish and Serbian and speaks some Russian.
I present you my student, my dear friend and my German teacher: Henning Jochem from Berlin.
We talked about:
– How knowing another Slavic language both helps and obstructs your Serbian
– Why learning a new script is so difficult and what it takes to master Cyrillic
– Can you speak Serbian in Croatia and Slovenia
– Music and festivals in Serbia
– The best Balkan food in Germany
