For My 5th Grade Class

I don't know if my class will actually look at this, but here is some stuff about Croatia.
From: Alison

  1. Most of the stuff back at home is NOT here....I can name like 5 million things. 
  2. When our class talked, you didn't see the city streets. Not as nice as the views from the balcony, the streets are covered with trash and graffiti.
  3. Shopping is the best! And I am not saying this because I love to shop! The deals here are amazing! A pair of shoes MY size were like 40 kuna, which in American money, is less than seven dollars! 
  4. Our blog tells a lot about the Korzo because we go there a lot. These buildings are very fancy and quite nice compared to the rest of the city.


Your Own Croatian Dictionary

Thank you=Hvala (Hah-VAH-lah)
You're welcome=Molim (Moh-leem)
I am your name=Ja sam (ya-sam) your name
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT A WORD IS IN CROATIAN, LEAVE THAT WORD (IN ENGLISH) AND I WILL TRY TO POST IT.

    1. Hi Alison. I asked my family what Croatian words they would want to know and use and they suggested "ice cream," "wine," and "cat." Thanks!

      1. Hi,

        Cat is mačka (mach-ca). Wine is vino (vee-no). Ice cream is sladoled (slah-do-led).

        Thanks for asking,
        Alison

    2. Thank you. The words for cat and ice-cream are not at all what I would've guessed.
