Bosnian is one of three standardised varieties of the language formerly known as Serbo-Croatian — the other two being Serbian and Croatian. The three are mutually intelligible in speech but have distinct vocabulary, spelling conventions, and (for Serbian) script. Bosnian uses the Latin alphabet and has around 2.5 million native speakers. In the United States the Bosnian-American community formed largely from refugees of the 1992-1995 Bosnian War, with St. Louis hosting the largest Bosnian community outside Bosnia itself, plus significant populations in Chicago, Utica, Jacksonville, and Atlanta. Most of our Bosnian translation work is USCIS family-reunification paperwork and the civil documents tied to that community's now-second-generation immigration story.
