User:Pepsi Lite/Differences between standard Croatian and Serbian


 * 1) Croatian is based on Chakavian, Kajkavian and Shtokavian dialects. Serbian is based only on Shtokavian dialect.
 * 2) Serbian language standard tends to be "inclusive", whereas Croatian standard is more purist and prefers neologisms instead of loan-words.
 * 3) Croats use "softer" accent than Serbian speakers.
