文化背景
The Belgrade Book Fair is a major cultural event where families go to buy books for the whole year. There is a strong tradition of 'coffee and a book' in city centers like Sarajevo, Zagreb, and Belgrade. Serbian students often use 'čitati' to mean 'preparing for an exam' if they are in humanities. During the 19th century, reading was a way to spread the reformed Serbian language by Vuk Karadžić.
The -u Ending
Always remember that 'knjiga' becomes 'knjigu' when it's the object. This is the #1 rule for A1 learners.
Don't use 'sam'
Avoid saying 'Ja sam čitati'. Just say 'Čitam'.
