# slovinski
## Serbo-Croatian
### Etymology 1

Inherited from Proto-Slavic *slověnьskъ. Originally this word was simply the Ikavian variant of slòvēnskī, slòvjēnskī, but it was later borrowed into the other dialects and developed narrower meanings, analogously to the development of Slovene slovénski and Slovak slovenský from “Slavic” to “Slovene”, “Slovak”.

#### Alternative forms

* slòvēnskī (Slavic, now chiefly Serbian, Ekavian)
* slòvjēnskī (Slavic, now chiefly Serbian, Ijekavian)
* slàvēnski (Slavic, Bosnia, Croatia, dated Serbian)

#### Pronunciation

* IPA: /slǒviːnskiː/
* Hyphenation: slo‧vin‧ski

#### Adjective

slòvīnskī (Cyrillic spelling сло̀вӣнскӣ)
* (archaic) pertaining to the central western South Slavic people, the speakers of Serbo-Croatian, including the people today known as Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks, Montenegrins, etc.
** 1640, Bartol Kašić, Ritval Rimski:
    Ovim dakle nacinnom odlùcih yà Pijſmo ovega Rituala, illi Obicàynika iſtomacciti naſcki, bivſci yà govorio, i opcchìo s’ gliùdmi od razliçih Ruſàgà Slovinskih, hodecchi pò sfijtu: i yàſam gnih ovakka govorenya razumio, i oniſu moya: (Karstyanni, Raſciàni, Serbgli Poluvirçi, i Turci·)[Ovim dakle načinom odlučih ja pismo ovega rituala, ili običajnika, istumačiti naški, bivši ja govorio, i općio s ljudmi od različih rusaga slovinskih hodeći po svitu. I ja sam njih ovaka govorenja razumio, i oni su moja — Krstjani, Rašćani, Srblji poluvirci, i Turci.]So in this manner I decided to translate the writing of this ritual into our speech, which I spoke, and I communicated with people from the various Slovinian countries in the world. And I understood their speech like this, and they understood mine — the Christians (i.e. Catholic Slavs), the Rascians, the half-faithful (i.e. Eastern Orthodox) Serbs, and the Turks (i.e. Muslim Slavs).
    Dobrocesnichie zà iſto bitti, i blaxeni Narod naſc Slovinski, akòmu Goſpodin Boog podà, i Sfetigna Papina cinij, dàſe utiſcte, i izvedù naſcki nà sfitlost Sfeta Pijſma…[Dobročesni će za isto biti, i blaženi narod naš slovinski, ako mu Gospodin Bog poda i svetinja Papina čini da se utište i izvedu naški na svitlost Sveta Pisma…]It will be fortunate for the same, and blessed will be our Slovinian nation, if the Lord God allows, and the sanctity of the Pope causes, that the Holy Scriptures be brought forth into the light in our language…

Živaljević, Andrija Kačić Miošić, slovinski pesnik:…нових витезова и јунака на чијим се костима подиже и обнови Краљевина Србија, узданица патничког словинског народа!…the new knights and heroes upon whose bones the Kingdom of Serbia is raised and renewed, the hope of the suffering Slovinian nation!

    Velekratsam razmiſcgliào, i razgovàryaucchiſe s’ druzimi iziskovào, koimbiſmo nacinnom nayboglim, i nayugodnijm moghli upijſati, i izgovoritti naſſca beſidenya Slovinska: ne mogoſmonikakova poſobita nàycchi s’ koyimbiſe mòglo ne ſamo sfima Ruſagom, pacek ni yednòmu ſàmomu ugoditti Gràdu. Yere sfakki clovik sfoga grada govvor, i beſidenye hvàli, Hærvat, Dalmatin, Boſcgnak, Dubrovcanin, Serbglin. Sctòchiemo dakle rekki, i odlùciti?[Velekrat sam razmišljao, i razgovarajući se s druzimi iziskovao kojim bi smo načinom najboljim i najugodnijim mogli upisati i izgovoriti naša besidenja slovinska: ne mogosmo nikakova posobita naći s kojim bi se moglo ne samo svima rusagom, paček ni jednomu samomu ugoditi gradu. Jere svaki človik svoga grada govor i besidenje hvali, Hrvat, Dalmatin, Bošnjak, Dubrovčanin, Srbljin. Što ćemo dakle reći i odlučiti?]I thought over it a lot, and speaking with others I needed to find by what manner we could best and most pleasantly write and pronounce our Serbo-Croatian language: we could not find any particular manner with which we could satisfy not even all the country, but just one single city. For every man praises the speech and language of his own city, Croat, Dalmatian, Bosniak, Ragusan, Serb. So what will we say and decide?
