    Default Balkan Slavs: which language do you use when visiting each others' nations?

    Here I refer to Slovenes, Croats, Bosniaks, Serbs, Montenegrins, North Macedonians and Bulgarians.

    (1) English as a 'neutral' language.
    (2) The language of the country in question.
    (3) Your own language, but spoken more slowly than usual.

    Is this a serious or silly response?

    Do you understand that we all speak the same language?

    We can even understand Slovenians, Macedonians and to some extent Bulgarians?

    Balkan Slavs are the most multilingual people in the world. I speak Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, Montenegrin and also understand some Slovenian and Macedonian.

    Well I know that it used to be called Serbo-Croat, only it was split for political reasons (kind of like Hindi and Urdu). All the same how similar are Slovene, Macedonian and Bulgarian to it?

    Slovene and Macedonian are moderately distant to Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian, Croatian and can be understood if you listen carefully.

    Bulgarian is a bit more distant and requires some better understanding, I think Macedonians can understand it better.

    Croat and serb was also artificially brought closer to each other for political reasons before 20th century.

    Well at least you can be happy Hungarian isn't related to anything else. (Except to some extent Finnish and Estonian).
