What is Languages Of Montenegro?

Information about Languages Of Montenegro

The Republic of Montenegro has one official language, the Ijekavian dialect of Serbian. This replaced Serbo-Croat as Montenegro's official language in the constitution of 1992. This official language is being called, by political organizations in the last years, Montenegrin language. On the last census in 2003, 21.53% of the population of Montenegro declared Montenegrin their native language.

Other non-official languages spoken in Montenegro include Albanian, Bosnian and Croatian. However, Albanian is an official language of the municipality of Ulcinj.

Additionally, there are nearly 500 Italians in Montenegro today, concentrated in the Bay of Kotor (the venetian Cattaro) and the coast: they are the descendants of the venetian speaking population of the areas around Cattaro that belonged for many centuries to the Republic of Venice.

The montenegrin language is written in latin and cyrillic alphabets, but there it is a growing political movement that wants to use officially only the latin alphabet when Montenegro will enter the European Union.
