Most of us, probably all of us, use terms of endearment when speaking to people we care about, whether we realize it or not. Sugar, sweetheart, buddy, dude. These are all ways that we might refer to someone dear to us instead of using their name. Every language has them, including Croatian. Why not switch some of your common terms of endearment over to Croatian? Using Croatian terms of endearment is a great way to help you assimilate and become more comfortable with the Croatian language.
