Bedeutung
Responding to a query.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Serbia, giving an answer is often preceded by a long conversation. It's rare to get a 'yes' or 'no' without some context. Montenegrins value brevity and honor. Giving an answer ('dati riječ') is taken very seriously as a personal commitment. Communication is often more indirect and humorous. An answer might be given through a metaphor or a joke. In formal Croatian business culture, 'dati odgovor' is expected to be very precise and often in written form.
Be Direct
In casual Serbian, don't be afraid to just say 'Odgovori!' if you are close with the person.
Case Alert
Remember: Dati (kome?) - Dative. Always use 'meni', 'tebi', 'njemu', etc.

Email Etiquette
Use 'Unapred hvala na odgovoru' (Thanks in advance for the answer) to sound professional.
The 'Polako' Factor
If someone says they will give an answer 'sutra' (tomorrow), it might mean 'in a few days'. Be patient!
