Oh and another question, aren't the Croatian and Serbian (and apparently Bosnian too) are all the same language... I noticed that the Croats usually use the Latin alphabet (as all of the other Catholic Slavs) whereas the Serbs, who are Orthodox Christians, use the Cyrillic alphabet (like Russian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian), is this the only difference between Srpski i Hrvatski?
Thanks in advance! And G-d bless Serbia!
AMEN.
Yes, it's the same language and there are some differences in dialects and accents.The differences would be something like compering the English language in UK and USA,or English in England and Ireland or Scotland.
Of course ,we are using the different letters.Croatians use Latin and and we use Cyrillic,that's correct.
There is no "Bosnian" language as there is no "Bosnian nation".Historically Bosnia was formed by Serbs,and it was (another)Serbian state before the Turkish occupier came here.The name "Bosnia" is not related with any nation.It derives from the river Bosna,so the name has nothing to do with a non-existing nation "Bosnians".Serbs named that region(and current state) Bosnia and not any other nation since there were no other nations in the Bosnian region.
Of course ,maybe you've heard that there are Bosniaks or Bosniak nationality,but you should know that those people who use to call themselves today as "Bosniaks" are all muslims - islamised Serbs.They are Serbs who got islamised during the Turkish occupation which lasted for almost five centuries.One part of our nation got islamised and they are now building their own identity as "Bosniaks" or Boisnians.
The logic is like this: You and me move to a certain area,and our nationality is Serbian.In that area there is a river named Bosna.And we say that hole area will be named by the river Bosna and not by our nationality.In a few years we are suddenly forced by some third party to change our religion.But only I have accepted to change it while you refused.Now,that sudden difference became a seed of conflict between us and the source of hate.Later we find our selves in a fight and I was supported by that third party against you.Now,my hate toward you rises(as you remained what you are and I became kind of a traitor),so the third party that created my "new" identity through my new religion supports the idea that I should change the nationality also as I've changed my religion.So,I start to call myself,not Serb any more,but "Bosnian" choosing the name of my "new" nationality by the name of our common region(state).This "new" identity ,since it has zero historical roots,will be built on all ideas that are going to stand against you.So,my "new" identity will be anti-Serbian just named "Bosnian" or "Bosniak".
So,there is no Bosnian language as there is no Bosnian nation.
