@mojo: Yeah, that's sort of the reaction I was getting when I first moved to this town. Laughter and ridicule....bastards.
Plus, apparently we (islanders) speak really fast which makes it even more difficult for others to understand...:\
Also, I've noticed that I'm better at expressing myself using English than with official Croatian, probably because I do most of my communicating on line and read almost all books in English (I like it more than Croatian. :\). However, I'd say my forte is Cronglish....
That wasn't very funny...
