In this lesson, we will learn about personal pronouns in Serbian. Personal pronouns are a very important part of any language, as they help speakers refer to themselves and others.

Personal pronouns in Serbian are inflected, meaning that they change form depending on their grammatical role in the sentence. There are seven different forms of personal pronouns in Serbian, depending on the grammatical person and number.
