意思
Making music with a guitar.
文化背景
In traditional Serbian taverns (kafane), the guitar is often part of an acoustic ensemble. While the accordion is king, the guitar provides the essential rhythmic backbone for 'starogradske pesme'. The guitar is the symbol of the 1980s 'New Wave' in Yugoslavia. Learning to play the guitar often starts with learning songs by bands like EKV or Azra. During summer excursions to mountains like Zlatibor or Tara, 'svirati gitaru' around a fire is a quintessential youth experience. At a 'Slava' (family patron saint day), after the formal meal, it's common for someone to bring out a guitar for a more relaxed, communal singing session.
The 'U' Rule
Always remember that for feminine instruments like gitara, violina, and flauta, the ending changes to 'u' when you play them.
No 'Play' for Games
If you say 'sviram fudbal', Serbians will imagine you blowing into a football like a trumpet!

Use 'Znam'
Instead of just 'Sviram gitaru', say 'Znam da sviram gitaru' (I know how to play) to sound more like a native speaker when discussing skills.
The Sing-along
If you play in Serbia, be prepared for people to start singing immediately. It's a compliment!
