Back to the Serbian path

Бројеви и новац — Read prices in dinars and choose the right noun shape.

Tens, hundreds, and a thousand

тридесет (30), четрдесет (40), педесет (50), сто (100), двеста (200), петсто (500), хиљада (1000). Combine them directly: сто педесет is 150.

двеста педесет

250

Serbia pays in dinars

The currency is the динар, abbreviated RSD or дин. Prices often run into hundreds: Кафа кошта двеста динара.

Двеста динара, молим.

Two hundred dinars, please.

Three shapes after numbers

Learn the basic pattern: један динар, два/три/четири динара, пет динара. Other nouns also change after numbers: једна кафа, две кафе, пет кафа.

1 динар / 2 динара / 5 динара

the three basic number shapes

Ask and pay

Ask «Колико кошта?» for one thing and «Колико коштају?» for several. «Укупно је…» gives the total, and «Рачун, молим» asks for the bill.

Колико кошта ово?

How much is this?

Put It Together

Keep the lesson goal in view: Read prices in dinars and choose the right noun shape. Revisit the examples, then test yourself in practice.
