you say: MIR BOZIJI-HRISTOS SE RODI (Godly PEACE- Christ is Born)
reply is: VAISTINU SE RODI (Indeed He is Born)
Eve: to reply to you shortly- your question is at this time very controversial. Here is a brief answer. Serbia and Montenegro were at one time part of Yugoslavia. Althought there were other countries in the same union, throughout the last 15 years, everyone of the countries that were originally in that union have become their own country. The language is exactly the same, however the dialect is different.
A Serb/Montenegrin/Croat/Slovene/Bosnian/Macedonian/Slovak can go to any of these countries and communicate fluently without a problem.

Verganism is correct - Christ is born and the response - indeed he is born is the correct response.
Christmas is a precious religious holiday. Let me explain -
I too am Serbian, my father born in then Serbia (Mostar then lived in Nevesinje). The state/province borders of the original Yugoslavia (Jugoslavija) which were comprised of the original Balkan states (1900 ad) of Serbia, Austria-Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire. In 1913 Montenegro and Albania were born from the previous Ottoman Empire. In 1920 part of Austria-Hungary was taken by Serbia and Montenegro and incorporated the clans about the countryside creating the "Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes". As a nationalist country, in 1929 King Alexander 1st changed the name to Yugoslavia. In 1941 during WW2 Croatia was born as an idependent state - then there was Serbia, Montenegro, Albania and Croatia in the country Yugoslavia. But it came at a huge cost, as German troops invaded Yugoslavia, they were welcomed by Croatian fascists living in small clans throughout the countryside. Hitler rewarded the Croats with a nominally independent puppet state, which also incorporated Bosnia. In the course of a series of overlapping civil wars, widespread atrocities were committed by all sides. In Croatia, Serbs, Jews, gypsies and anti-fascist Croats were killed in concentration camps. Then the country became communist under Marshall Tito's rule. In 1945 six republics were created - Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Macedonia. Serbia created two provinces within itself, they were Kosovo and Vojvodina and were given religious autonomous status. The countries remained resonably stable until 1992 when civil war broke out as the country stuggled with Nationalism again and relived 1940 in a war based on land and power under the cloak of religious belief.
It has been a long and difficult road for my ancestors as I am Serbian by blood but in saying that am truly Balkan as the borders have been fluid over the generations and my families blood runs in the members of all the countries of the former Yugolavia. The one common thread is our Christianity - so, in the Orthodox religion Christmas and Easter are the two most treasured holidays. In addition, despite bad publicity, our muslim neighbors have also respected our traditions and us theirs as we have lived side by side for many generations.

even nonetheless they're the two south Slavs, they have distinctive origins, distinctive ethnic costumes and human beings track. Their language is distinctive in some letters, accessory and a few grammatical and spelling rules.
