The Slovene Language

The Slovene language, which is also known as Slovenian and Slovene Slovenscina is a South Slavic language spoken in Slovenia, Italy, Austria, Croatia and Hungary. About 2.5 million people worldwide speak Slovene. It is one of the 24 official languages of the European Union. It is an Indo-European language, part of the Slavic family of languages. There are several dialects of the Slovene language, such as Prekmurje and Resian. There are about 32 standardized dialects of the Slovene language. Some linguists go as far as claiming that there are even 46 dialects of the Slovene language. Slovene is very close to the Chakavian dialect of the Serbo-Croatian language.

The first-time words in Slovene were printed were in 1515 in Vienna in a poem by German mercenaries. Not much later, towards the end of the 16th century, Standard Slovene came to be, thanks to Slovene Lutheran authors who became active and popular during the Protestant Reformation. Around the 11th century, Protestants had translated the Bible and wrote certain religious passages in Slovene. In the late 1700s, there was a Roman Catholic translated version of the bible that was published. In the mid-1800s, a standard written and spoken Slovene language was widespread and being used.

The Slovene language has 21 consonants and 8 vowels. There are 6 noun cases in Slovene: nominative, accusative, genitive, dative, locative and instrumental. Nouns have three genders (feminine, masculine or neutral). Like many other European languages, the word ‘you’ has two forms: formal and informal. This is known as the T-V distinction. In French, for example, informal ‘you’ is referred to as ‘toi’ whereas formal ‘you’ is referred to as ‘vous,’ thus the T-V distinction.

The Slovene alphabet is written in the Latin (Roman) characters.
