Macedonian phrasebook

Macedonian (македонски) is the main language of the Republic of North Macedonia situated between Serbia, Greece and Albania in Southeastern Europe. The language is very similar to Bulgarian phrasebook|Bulgarian, and the differences between them are often blurry even in the spoken language.

Most Macedonians will understand Bulgarian without the need of a translator. Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian/Montenegrin phrasebook|Montenegrin is also similar, though the grammar is somewhat different – Macedonian and Bulgarian mostly don't have cases while Serbo-Croatian does. Two other languages widely spoken in North Macedonia are Albanian phrasebook|Albanian and, to some extent, (Turkish). There are also Macedonian language speakers among the Slavic Macedonian minority in northern Greece that is not recognized by the Greek national authorities.

The Macedonian language is an easy language as each letter contains its own sound with no letter change. The vowels are similar to the Spanish vowels and give out the same sounds at all times.

Pronunciation guide

Macedonian has 31 sounds. Spelling does not present any difficulties as there is one symbol for each sound. Pronunciation of the Cyrillic and Latin alphabets will be given here. No letter in Macedonian Cyrillic is silent.
