== Grammar ==
Now that you have the basic vocabulary, let’s look at some phrases that can help you when asking for directions.


When asking for directions in Bosnian, the word order follows the Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) structure. For example:
{| class="wikitable"


- Gdje je hotel? (Where is the hotel?)
! Bosnian !! Pronunciation !! English
- Kako doći do muzeja? (How to get to the museum?)


Notice that the verb comes last in these sentences.
|-


When giving directions, we use the imperative form of the verb, which is the same as the present tense conjugation for the second-person singular form. For example:
| Gdje je...? || g-dyeh yeh...? || Where is...?


- Idi pravo (Go straight)
|-
- Skreni desno (Turn right)


We can use prepositions to describe the location of a place. Some common prepositions used for giving directions include:
| Kako da dođem do...? || kah-koh dah doh-djem doh...? || How do I get to...?


- na (on)
|-
- preko (across from)
- pored (beside)
- ispred (in front of)
- iza (behind)


== Examples ==
| Možete li mi pomoći? || moh-zheh-teh lee mee poh-moh-chee? || Can you help me?


Here are a few examples of how to use these words and grammar structures in sentences:
|-
 
| Da li je daleko? || dah lee yeh dah-leh-koh? || Is it far?
 
|-
 
| Idite lijevo/desno. || ee-dee-teh lee-yeh-vo/des-noh. || Go left/right.
 
|-
 
| Idite naprijed. || ee-dee-teh nah-pree-ehd. || Go straight.
 
|-
 
| U blizini je... || oo blee-zee-nee yeh... || It is nearby...
 
|-
 
| Možete li ponoviti? || moh-zheh-teh lee poh-noh-vee-tee? || Can you repeat?
 
|-
 
| Kako mogu doći do...? || kah-koh moh-goo doh-chee doh...? || How can I get to...?
 
|-
 
| Hvala vam! || hvah-lah vahm! || Thank you!
 
|}


- Gdje je autobuska stanica? (Where is the bus station?)
=== Examples of Asking for Directions ===
