Serbian Pronunciation Course
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course will help you:
- Sound natural when you speak Serbian
- Gain confidence with tricky sounds
- Improve your comprehension: you’ll be able to understand others better
You will learn:
- Differences and similarities between Serbian and English language sounds (but we make comparisons between Serbian and other languages too!)
- How to pronounce Serbian words correctly
- How to stress Serbian words properly
- What are the typical mistakes Serbian learners make and how to avoid them
- What sounds in Serbian are the most challenging to learn- you will get tips on how to learn them easily
We will be practicing with:
- Words and phrases that we use and that you’ll need in everyday life
- Tongue twisters (these are not phrases we actually use but are of great help to isolate the sound that we practice at that moment and become fully focused on it)
- 10+ hours of video lessons where we will explain sounds through examples and demonstration of how to move your facial muscles 🙂
- Our audio files and your recordings: we will be talking to you but you will also be talking to us
- Interactive exercises where you get instant feedback (like Serbian Duolingo 🙂
- Serbian popular songs (because there’s no better way to pick up a sound than in a song, with all the rhythm and rhymes)
- Memes (because they’re fun and learning should never be boring)
- Downloadable audio files you can listen to on the go
Not only will you work on your pronunciation but with this course, you are also getting 6 bonus benefits:
- Alongside Latin script, you’ll also learn the Cyrillic alphabet
- You will expand your vocabulary with more than 700 new words
- You’ll learn the word order in Serbian language
- 50 survival phrases (with an mp3 file of how they sound)
- 75 Serbian female and male names and names of places (you wont be scared of new sounds in Serbian names any longer 😊)
- Special and detailed tips for learning word accent and tone (this is a unique material for Serbian language learners; to our knowledge, no other course/textbook has something like this)
You will also get access to our closed Facebook group where you can ask questions about the course, connect with other students, and get support and motivation for learning. The group is only open to Go Speak Serbian students and teachers. We share a lot of content there that will help you improve your Serbian.
I am currently working through the pre-intermediate course and the pronunciation course. I am not exaggerating when I say that I like everything about them. To begin with, the materials do not miss a single aspect on the road to learning the Serbian language. The units are highly didactic, original, and a lot of fun. I personally enjoy the video approach, as the units can be viewed, re-viewed, and studied as much as the learner deems necessary. Each unit has a dedicated downloadable audio clip as well as worksheets. I really appreciate the extensive unit vocabulary lists. Who doesn’t like to test their comprehension with a quiz? You will not be disappointed. Everyone has questions, and Dragana and Miljana are quite proactive in providing answers and explanations. They are experts in their field, and their generosity of spirit and kindness are refreshing. Included in the purchased course is a monthly, hour-long group online session, hosted by Dragana, or Miljana. The advantage of this opportunity is to produce the language that you have been learning at your own pace. I look forward to these monthly sessions with anticipation. Of course, there is engaging material being shared at this time of relaxed learning with other students. If you are looking for an online Serbian language course, look no further! I highly recommend the courses from Go Speak Serbian. I am already looking forward to the release of the next course module.
The course is great the way it is.
In this course the amazing teachers Dragana and Miljana explain the pronunciation of each and every sound in Serbian with images, demonstration and lots of usage examples. And of course each lecture is followed by a decent number of exercises. In addition, there are two huge and throughout sections about the two difficult themes in Serbian: the word accent and enclitics. I really enjoy studying with this course (as well as enjoyed the two other ones).
What I like about this pronunciation course: #1. The instructors show us how to recognize the sounds, how to make the sounds, and most importantly: how to know if we are doing it correctly. #2. The use of common words with those sounds and minimal pairs #3. The feedback given after we submit our recordings

I’m taking Serbian Pronunciation course and I think it really helps me to improve my pronunciation and it is difficult to find this kind of course in Serbian so I’m happy about it. Only thing I can change it I would like it if course has more exercises like we are listening to text and hearing how things are pronouncing in context. But overall I’m quite happy with the course and I think it makes things very easy to understand and very useful and clear.
