Croatian-German dictionary

Croatian – a language that shapes identity

Croatian has many similarities to Serbian and Bosnian, which is why these languages are frequently taught jointly as “BCS” at universities as part of Slavic studies. Nevertheless, Croatian is an independent language, which plays an identity-shaping role – especially in view of political developments in the recent past. Furthermore, since 2013 Croatia has also been a member of the European Union and Croatian an official language of the EU.
