We've previously established that Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian are dialects of the same language and that Afrikaans is a dialect of Dutch. But what about Serbian and Croatian? Are they also dialects of the same language?

The answer is yes and no. Due to the political climate of the former Yugoslavian countries of Serbia and Croatia, their respective languages are regarded as separate languages. But are they actually different languages linguistically? Do they have different grammars, vocabulary, and phonology? In this video, we compare these two languages' levels of mutual intelligibility to settle this question once and for all!
