I already said this, but it probably got lost in the sea of comments xD. When you pronounce Č, the tip of your tongue is at the roof of your mouth (the front part, but not close to your teeth), and when you pronounce Ć, the tip of your tongue is placed on the inner part of your front teeth. Hope this helps :D Try it out!
Mene su u školi zezali zbog toga što sam Slovenac i imao sam uvek problema sa tim slovima. Čak i dan danas imam. Profesorica srpskog jezika me je jednom prozvala na času umesto imenom ona rekla "Gde je onaj ekspert za č i ć i đ i dž?" Zanimljivo da mi je brat odma savladao taj izgovor i prvi naučio ćirilicu iako mu nikad nije išla škola.
crtatjitjMilan Nema ali mi smo neko vreme živeli i u Srbiji i išli tamo u škole. Hoću da kažem ako je meni teško bilo da savladam onda zamisli kako je tek Amerima. Slovenački ima samo č mada se i ono drugačije izgovara nego srpsko. Nešto između č i ć. Zato me nervira onaj komentator na SportKlubu kad pokušava da naglašava Č prilikom svakog izgovora imena košarkaša Jake kada kaže "Jaka BlažiČ". Ispada smešno jer slovenački č je neka mekša varijanta našeg č ali šta je tu je.
Try it like this: Ć is like well.. your name you can't go wrong ;D CHarles Č this sounds kind of similar i guess but try saying "True" the T or TR sound you make is basically Č
I like what he says about how America's geographical knowledge is not as extensive as other countries' because, well, one of our STATES is the size of 'such and such' COUNTRY. We also don't have to leave our country to experience different topography as he said.
the kids are going there on a work and travel program that finds them employment in seasonal locations around the US for 4 months.. no one said anything about everyone having money... the kids usually come back here with a lot of it in their pockets though.. they aren't lazy.. most find two or three jobs... :P
Charles Cather oh i ment in general :D ahah but yeah well 100-200$ is a lot in serbia but in the USA that's nothing you know you can live off of 5,000 $ in serbia for a year in the USA that won't do much for you . but a lot of serbian people in general , Croatian etc all think that money grows on trees here .
Charles, your pronunciation of the Č and Ć sounds is IMPECCABLE for a North American (coming from a Canadian who's parents taught him Serbian before English lol). Great video! Cheers.
I need help with pronunciation really bad, every time I try to speak Serbian I get laughed at, every time I say it wrong and no matter how hard I try there are sounds I don't know how to make at all. Does anyone have any guides on exactly how to shape your tongue and mouth. I am even starting to question whether my tongue is too big for my mouth or a I have a speech defect.
its not just serbian croatians,bosians nad other countries near those countries have č and ć but if you are not from those countries you will have problems pronuciating those letters
In italian everything is with ć. To learn how to say čaša aaaah ahahah was pretty difficult i would say that č is like 'tch' so your tongue goes up to the roof of your mouth that's really strange

So Luka Dochith?
But Č is harder than CH in Charles, isn't it? English ch sounds semi-Soft for me.
Try it like this:
Ć is like well.. your name you can't go wrong ;D CHarles
Č this sounds kind of similar i guess but try saying "True" the T or TR sound you make is basically Č
Urrrgh it was an english example of pronunciation please..
I can't tell difference and I was born and raised back home...all sounds same for me but rules are rules
Same lol.. I think when people talk fast it doesnt matter anyway..

as a serbian in the USA i find it so funny how all Serbians think that just because we live in the US we have money and it grows on trees xD haha

Boris Frlic opa... hvala ti! :) respect to ya :)
To pronounce the letter 'Ć', just substitute the 'h' for a 'j' in Charles; pronounce it more like 'cj' instead of the 'ch'
