A diary, then postcards from farther out

Ana can caption Sebilj and kahva now. Emir refuses to let the review shrink Bosnia and Herzegovina to two postcard cities. He adds three images from across the country. The Pliva waterfall at Jajce, where a river falls through the town. The Blagaj tekija under a cliff at the Buna spring. And Počitelj’s stone houses stacked above the Neretva valley. Review the language first. Then aim your next sutra at a wider map. The café is home base. The classroom is the whole country.

Lesson vocabulary

Tap a word to hear it. Use Loop and slower speed when you want to shadow.

Grammar

Say again

Warm up with four lines you already know.

• Koliko je sati?: What time is it?
• Pet je sati.: It is five o’clock.
• Danas je petak.: Today is Friday.
• Sutra je subota.: Tomorrow is Saturday.

Lesson A. Recycle the toolkit

This review moves fast, without notes. Say Zdravo! Say Ja sam… Say Drago mi je. Say Kahvu, molim. Ask Koliko? Say Moj brat. Say Moja sestra. Ask Gdje je mapa? Answer Ovdje. Answer Tamo. Ask Koliko je sati? Say Danas. Say Sutra. Emir times Ana for two minutes. Misses are fine. Laugh, repeat, and move on. Circle three weak words and write them once with the correct letters.

• Speed first, then one careful rewrite.
• Revisit č ć š ž đ from Lesson 1 if your spelling slips.

Lesson B. Photo diary captions

Caption six lines for skills from Lessons 1 to 6. Then add three place lines Emir teaches as teases. Write Jajce, vodopad. Write Blagaj, Buna. Write Počitelj, stari grad. Glue them with Gdje je…? And Tamo. Share the diary at the table. Amira closes the lesson with Hvala, and sutra! Lesson 8 will bring burek and more of the map.

• Lines from Lessons 1 to 6 come first, then three new place names.
• Reuse Gdje je…? And Tamo for the postcard stack.

Foto priča i razglednice

Amira’s café. Ana’s phone sits beside Emir’s postcards of Jajce, Blagaj, and Počitelj.

Play the full scene once. Then tap a line to hear it. On some lines you can record yourself for a short Speak Check.

Practice

Fun facts

Počitelj’s stone stack

Počitelj climbs a Herzegovina hillside in stacked stone houses. A fortress silhouette watches over the old settlement. The town sits above the Neretva corridor as a preserved Ottoman-era place. One more postcard like this keeps Section 1 review geographically honest.

Bosnia today

Two schools under one roof

In parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, children from different ethnic communities still attend school under a segregated model often called two schools under one roof. Students may share one building while using separate entrances, teachers, classrooms, and history lessons. International monitors have documented the practice for years as everyday discrimination in education. The result is that children in the same town can grow up learning different versions of the past inside the same walls.
