One Language, One Script: The Truth About Croatian Writing
When learning a new language, writing systems can feel overwhelming. But here’s good news for kids learning Croatian: it uses just one script the Latin alphabet!
What Is the Latin Script?
The Latin script is the same alphabet used in English, Spanish, French, and many other languages. That means your child already knows many of the letters used in Croatian.
But Croatian adds a few exciting characters, like:
- č, ć, ž, š, đ
Each one has its own unique sound, but they’re not hard to learn. In fact, they make reading and pronunciation more precise.
Why This Makes Learning Easier
Unlike some neighboring countries that use two or more scripts (like Cyrillic), Croatian keeps it simple with just Latin. This means kids can focus on vocabulary and grammar without needing to learn a new writing system.
