House and home in Serbian: Fun Facts

If you speak a Slavic language, like Russian, you know that dom means house. But in Serbian, the word for house is kuća, and dom means home.

But it’s a little bit mixed up part of the Serbian house vocabulary.

Here’s why. “I’m going home” in Serbian sounds “Idem kući”, but in south Serbia they’ll say “Dom si idem”, and in Croatian “Idem doma”.

Also, housewife is called domaćica, and your Serbian host is domaćin.

I hope you write your domaći zadatak (home work) regularyl!

Home made food is the best: domaća hrana.
