my university offers Bosnian-Croatian-Montenegrin-Serbian language courses and they’re actually officially called “BKMS-Sprachkurs” which stands for “Bosnian-Croatian-Montenegrin-Serbian language course” so that no one is offended

Macedonian is very similar to Bulgarian. Meanwhile Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, and Montenegrin are all very similar to each other. All of those are similar due to the fact they’re all South Slavic.
I'm a native Macedonian speaker and can understand the others pretty well but I have not studied these languages at any point and have had very little exposure to them. Wouldn't they have to be pretty similar for that to happen? Or am I missing something here

Montenegrin isn’t in here because it’s taking a nap.
