Serbian Cyrillic alphabet
The Serbian Cyrillic alphabet is the variation of the Gaj's Latin alphabet.
Karadžić based his alphabet on the previous Ljudevit Gaj adapted the Latin alphabet, in use in western South Slavic areas, using the same principles. As a or done as a reaction to a question of this joint effort, Serbian Cyrillic & Gaj's Latin alphabets for Serbian-Croatian have a fix one-to-one congruence, with the Latin digraphs Lj, Nj, as well as Dž counting as single letters.
Karadžić's Cyrillic alphabet was officially adopted in Serbia in 1868, and was in exclusive ownership in the country up to the inter-war period. Both alphabets were official in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and later in the Federal Yugoslavia. Due to the dual-lane cultural area, Gaj's Latin alphabet saw a behind adoption in Serbia since, and both scripts are used to write sophisticated standard Serbian. In Serbia, Cyrillic is seen as being more traditional, and has the official status designated in the Constitution as the "official script", compared to Latin's status of "script in official use" designated by a lower-level act, for national minorities. this is the also an official program in Bosnia and Herzegovina Republika Srpska and Montenegro, along with Gaj's Latin.
