 Croatian Translation - Translate Croatian Language Translator
Monumental grammar authored by pre-eminent fin de si cle Croatian linguist Tomislav Maretić (Grammar and stylistics of Croatian or Serbian language) and dictionary by Broz and Iveković (Croatian dictionary) temporarily fixed the elastic (grammatically, syntactically, lexically) standard of this hybrid language.
Serbian and Croatian have had a radically different past of almost four hundred years and only a few decades of moderately peaceful convergence—some believed that it was inevitable that they should diverge, especially when political pressures were applied to forge them into one language, which both parties claimed was based on the other language.
Croatian language is today the official language of the Republic of Croatia and, along with Bosnian and Serbian, one of three official languages of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

 Bosnian, Croatian & Serbian Tutorial
Obviously, Bosnian is spoken in Bosnia, Croatian is spoken in Croatia, and Serbian is spoken in Serbia.
Another main difference between Serbian and Croatian is the use of "da." Sentences in Serbian using a conjugated verb and an infinitive will have da between them, but sentences in Croatian just use the conjugated verb and infinitive together.
The Croatian language does not use definite or indefinite articles (a, an, the), but it does use demonstratives (this, that, these, those).

I have to give Pimsleur Croatian program five stars for the excellence of the product, but as good as the course is it may not be for you.
It is also; however, an excellent introduction to the Croatian language for anyone with an interest in the language.
Whether you see Croatian, Bosnian, and Serbian as dialects of one language or as individual languages in their own right is up to you, but the material presented here is probably generic and simple enough to communicate with people from virtually anywhere in the former Yugoslavia.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Manoel Alvarez
His Latin grammar was adopted as a standard work by the Ratio Studiorum, or Plan of Studies, of the Jesuits.
On this account it is more than a mere grammar; it is also a work on the method of teaching Latin, and gives an insight into the system of the old Jesuit colleges.
After the publication of Latin grammars by De Condren, the Oratorian, and by Lancelot, of Port-Royal, both in French, the work of Alvarez was frequently censured, because it was written in Latin, and "presupposed what was to be learnt".

In a sense it is not all too different from a basic phrase type course in which words and sentences are spoken for you to repeat.
The difference is in the structure of the course, which uses review and continuous repetition, along with the posing of questions to the student.
Unlike, for instance French or Spanish, Croatian is not a language that has the same wide market appeal, hence the relative lack of language products available for it.
