Yep, Croatian/Serbian have a phonemic orthography. Quite easy to write given that sounds map directly to a letter.

- medo-bear 5y agothe maxim is to "speak as you write and write as you speak". however there are variations to adoptions of the rule. croatians will tend write foreign words as written in that language, while in serbia you always follow this rule. so for example in serbia it is Majkl Džordan while in croatia its just Michael Jordan
- mongrelion 5y agoI always found this funny. In Russian "second hand" is spelled секонд хэнд, which I find hilarious.
