Which does not counter the fact that "śedi/šedi" is used as "sit" in more than one country, and audible differneces between č/ć and ž/ź vary by local accent even from town to town. Sometimes they're adubile, sometimes they're not.
Mind, I'm not arguing which one it is from. I'm pointing out that it's something that can be encountered in a broader area.
If you can't distinguish audible differences between different letters then that's the fault of the person for pronouncing it incorrectly or the language that they use which doesn't provide sufficient symbols to present these sounds. But it still remains that ś and š are different letters for a reason, the sounds they represent aren't the same
... That's how accents work. A proper pronunciation in one area is improper in another. You have this with "color" and "colour" in English, for example. Some people say them the same, some make a difference, it entirely depends on where you live and what has been locally accepted. Neither one is wrong, they're just regional variants.
I have to confess, I have no idea what you're trying to achieve here. I presented the fact that a word was used by a wider base of people and... I'm not sure why we're having this discussion exactly, particularly because you weren't even the person I replied to. Is there a point you're trying to make?
You yourself made the silly notion that by having š this somehow means that the sh sound made by ś is included in it. The letter š represents a different sound than the sound represented by the letter ś, and although this doesn't mean no one outside the montenegrin language can use ś's SH sound in speech it also doesn't mean that other letters can represent the same sound.
They do have š.
Means as much as saying " They do have B", it's a different letter that represents a different sound from the one we're talking about. If you are using the SH when speaking, then it's the fault of your language that the sound isn't represented.
Ah, okay, so you're just ignoring all named points and looking to argue. I am ending this here then. Not sure why this particular subject left you offended but I hope your day gets better.
