Vukojebina and Jebivjetar by far the best words in Croatian language 🙂
Hahaha zakon!
predobro, keep up the good work👏🏻😀
This is brilliant I could not stop laughing, but be careful on examples like a night out in Newcastle ( oh my it’s great can’t remember all I got up too 😂) because you’re audience is international and not just from UK. More of this style showing the heart of Croatia and your experience s , a bit on food wine, but on the people making it and why but well done looking forward to more 😀
For many years Word was autocorrecting "potpis" into "potpies". Just saying.
Ajme!!
You're amazing 👏. Just keep going 🤩
Loved this. Thanks for the taking the time to do up a YT channel like this. I've subscribed and look forward to more. I also love the word Ajme! and use it all the time since we got back from Croatia last year. I envy you living there. Husband and I keep thinking we'd love to live in Croatia for at least half the year. Hope I win the lotto soon in order to do so.
haha 😀 vukojebina and radodajka, nice choice of words for the video! 😀 I laughed even though I'm Croatian.. 😉 and I admit, I never thought about how the word "potpis" sounds in English until I watched the video 😀
A girl from Newcastle on a friday night😂😂😂😂 shots fired hahaha
"fakat!"
I tought your fav was "uhljeb" ?!
˝ Vukojebina ˝ is a great word, but Croatia has many great words, like ˝ Pizdek ˝, ˝ Fakin ˝ and ˝ Jebivetar˝, those words can describe every other man in Croatia, Even You!!!
1. "Goodness me"
2. "Signsture"
3. "Sh*thole"
4. "Sl*t"
5. "Sh*thole sl*t"
some days ago we laughed with friends that vukojebina in Slovenian could be vukojebališče 🙂
Omg🤩incredible🚀Full hit
The most pure version of the Croatian language is spoken by people in Herzegovina. Despite not being inside of Croatian borders, Herzegovina's people are mostly Croatian and proudly speak clean Croatian. But they have a very robust way of talking, very rough and loud (except for the dialect in Mostar, which is kind of annoying to listen to). Check out 'Hercegovački' Croatian language and learn even more funny words.
Number 3 has a synonym. Pripizdina. I'm sure the author of the video has heard of this one, too. Althoigh, since there's no mention of wolves, it's not as intense.
a girl from Newcastle on a friday night 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Very good choice of words🤣👌hats off to you
So glad to see vukojebina on the list haha I'm a guide and I wanted to name my business Vukojebina because those are the places where I like to take people, but unfortunately it is too politically incorrect word for that, but it's amazing, I explain it to all my clients 😂😂
Ajme meni 🤣
"A girl from Newcastle on a Friday night" 😂😂. Having lived in an English vukojebina for two years I totally get the gist of this one 😀
I love you man ❤️
Pomalo
brijem da ti je video prejeben… 🙂
Stvarno cijenim način na koji koristi svoju tehniku kako bi osigurao da je moja veza stabilna i sigurna, s njegovim Instagram procesom mogu špijunirati poruke svojih partnera. Smjelo mogu reći da je Johnson hack67 siguran za rad
hahahahahaha well done, very nice !!!!
You forgot Jebivjetar(wind*ucker) Mlatimudan(Ballspuncher), Vucibatina(Dragingstick), Mutikaša(Stirporridge)
Jebivetar = fuckerwind , irridponsible person with lot of creativity
So, basically, if you are a single hetero/straight male this is a promo video for Newcastle 🙂
hahhahah legenda 😂💪😅
Ah, well done! Love this!! 🙂
there Paul, you are already quite contaminated, not to say poisoned, I will not explain to you how dangerous it is for your brain, I can only advise you not to wallow in that mud because you will never understand all the depths of the bilge. "vukojebina" means a place where only wolves can survive, that expression lost its original meaning about thirty years ago, you should have come earlier, haha
i've been studying croatian for three years so this channel is really helpful
Love it

Vukojebina is probably best translated as "backwater".
