Hrvatski– Facts about the Croatian language

Croatian is the official language of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.  It also has official status in Austria and Serbia.  It is estimated that there are over 6 million speakers of Croatian worldwide, with the majority of Croatian speakers based in Croatia.

Croatian is part of the South Slavic group of the Slavic branch of the Indo-European family. While it is acknowledged that there are differences today in nuance, vocabulary and usage, Bosnian and Serbian are mutually intelligible with Croatian, having all been integrated into a single language, Serbo-Croatian, during the era of communist Yugoslavia.  As Yugoslavia broke up, the language also mirrored the break up, with three languages officially formed according to historical, cultural and political lines.

Croatian uses a modified and extended version of the Latin alphabet.  It consists of 30 letters, 25 consonants and 5 vowels.   The Croatian alphabet includes the following letters: c, c, dz, d, lj, š, z.
