4) I’m Lost = Izgubio sam se / Изгубио Ñам Ñе (eez-GOO-byoh sahm seh)
Yeah, so you’re bound to get lost at some point I guess. Generally at festivals you couldn’t give a flying fox whether you’re lost or not but you might be trying to find the bar or something. Then things will get urgent.
Having said that, EXIT is inside of a fort, so unless you wander across the moat and into the Serbian wilderness you should be OK. Should be OK.
5) I Need A Doctor = Treba mi doktor / Треба ми доктор (TREH-bah mee DOHK-tohr)
I’m assuming that if you do need a doctor it will be because you are ultra-smashed, so I expect this article will have left your brain light years ago. But at least the word ‘doctor’ is pretty much the same. So don’t worry about the ‘treba mi’ bit and focus on screaming ‘DOKTOR’ I guess.
6) Can I Use Your Phone? = Mogu li da telefoniram? / Могу ли да телефонирам? (MOH-goo lee dah teh-leh-FOH-nee-rahm)
That might come up at EXIT mightn’t it? You’ve lost your mates. Again. You’re supposed to be meeting them to pick up some booty and you’ve lost them all having a slash in a bush. Although, on second thoughts, in my experience no one ever hears their phone at a festival; and it will probably have run out of charge within an hour of being there any way.
And for the love of God, make sure you turn roaming off or your next phone bill will give you a hernia.
OK, so I think we have the basics covered here. Now to try some real doozies. On the next page are a couple of Serbian phrases that will blow the locals away if you nail them…
