How to greet somebody is probably the first thing you would want to know when learning a foreign language or visiting some country for the first time. 

If you’re learning Croatian (or know somebody from Croatia) you’ve probably already mastered hello and thank you, however there are many other greetings and social expressions to be used on different occasions.
