Formal & casual: a statement, a letter, a message
Everything you need to switch registers in Serbian, in one path. Start with the lesson on register and style - Ви against ти, a passive or nominalized sentence against a blunt active one, би softening a request - then learn the vocabulary of official communication: a memo, a request, a deadline, an attachment. Guided lessons take you from a softened request to a corrected mistake; then listen to two colleagues who say ти to each other draft a formal complaint letter in Ви, read about a woman who sends a work email straight after texting a friend and forgets to switch register, write your own formal letter, and finally talk about when you have to change your own tone.
