How can I learn my own native language Serbo-Croatian?

Hello and I want to learn Serbo-Croatian. I am actually Bosnian and use the ijekavski dialect, but I don't mind which variations of this language it is, but I want to learn with the Latin abeceda, since I am used to that.

I first wasn't interested to learn my own language, because the language had (and has a bit) of a negative image for me like I describe the language as "aggressive", "unfriendly", "a meme" and "unromantic". That is because of my parents. But now, I feel that the language is pretty important, because I am interested about the history of the Western Balkans, I have more of a feeling of being "Yugoslav" (I still consider myself Bosnian, but I mean that in my mind) and it's a language not many people can and it's cool that I know a "hard" language.

I can make conversations with people, but I got issues with the grammar, pronunciation with the words and I want to expand my vocabulary much more and avoiding the code-switch, because I don't like that if the diaspora does that.

I know that there are Serbo-Croatian learning books on the internet archive, but it's not easy to find one, let me know if there's a good one to read.

I'll try watch more Yugoslav TV-Shows and Movies with English subtitles. Also old dubs of cartoons/anime from the old times to the 2000s is also a good idea to learn the language.

But yeah, how can I learn this language better? What else can you recommend me? Tips are also appreciated!

Old Yugoslavian movie question. Can someone explain the ending Leptirica (1973)?

I recently watched an old Serbian horror film from 1973 and I have a couple of questions. Maybe this went over my head as I'm not so familiar with the folklore (and I also kept getting distracted by how terribly translated the English subtitles were and I couldn't turn them off for some reason and it was annoying).

Can someone explain the ending?

  • Was Radojka the person killing the millers all along or was it actually Sava Savanović, the vampire the villagers suspected at the beginning of the film?
  • What did Živan (her father) mean when he caught the butterfly during the wedding and said "wait and see?" He doesn't appear after that.

Also, what time period is the film set in?

Question about portable tape players.

I'm currently doing research on imported cassette players (I.e Walkmans) in Yugoslavia, looking for specific models if anyone remembers having them or just broadly what brands were popular in the country in the 1980s before the breakup.

Hvala!

Diaspora / descendant nostalgija for Yugoslavia.

For those who live outside of the former Yugoslavia, had never lived there (or don't currently live in one of the successor states), and, only have family/parent heritage from here; what makes you nostalgic about Yugoslavia? What do you love about the country etc?
