Use Phrasebook to prepare for a café, shop or appointment.

Use Foundations to understand a pattern and adapt it to your life.

Use Roadmap to practise short responses and create a routine.

Meet Sanja Perinić Švorinić

I’m a Croatian language expert, language school founder and certified translator based in Rijeka. I hold a Master’s degree in Croatian and English studies and create practical resources for adults learning Croatian.

Calm Croatian brings together my experience working with expats, international professionals and heritage learners. The aim is simple: useful Croatian you can understand and put into practice.

Turn useful tips into something you can practise

The free blog helps you with one question at a time. Each paid ebook brings a focused set of material into one PDF you can save, revisit and use at your own pace.

Phrasebook: keep phrases, English translations and mini dialogues together for six everyday situations.

Foundations: work through beginner grammar examples and exercises, then check your answers.

Roadmap: start from zero with short useful responses, a 15-minute routine and a 30-day plan, or build on the Croatian you already recognise.
