🔍 1 | 1 | Lekcija 1: Dobar dan!
👋 😀 Dobro došli
On this very first day, we’re keeping things simple. We’ll start with the most useful phrases for greeting someone. No pressure, just listen, repeat, enjoy getting a feel for the language, and complete a simple task. These phrases will help you break the ice and start a conversation. Later on, we’ll meet some new friends and see what they have to say. But for now, take it easy, have fun, and let’s get started!
Naši novi studenti

🔎 Next step
Now that you’ve completed a few tasks and learned some basics on how to introduce yourself, make sure to check out the next three pages: (1) Vocabulary, (2) Grammar, and (3) Pronunciation practice. These sections will explain more about what we covered here and give you plenty of extra practice.
‼️ Keep in mind, almost every lesson includes vocabulary and grammar sections. It’s important to get comfortable with working on these on your own after class—that way, you’ll be fully prepared before starting your homework. This is key in making steady progress!
P.S. Unlike the other lessons, this first one doesn’t include a dedicated homework section. The vocabulary and grammar activities should give you plenty to work on until our next class.
