Croatian Language Gains Three New Words
The Dr. Ivan Šreter Awards in Lipik selected three new Croatian words on 14 March 2026, choosing presudnik, dohvatnica and narubno from 412 proposals by 191 contributors. Organized by magazine Jezik and the Dr. Ivan Šreter Foundation for its 20th anniversary, judges evaluated entries for correctness, clarity and usefulness as alternatives to foreign loanwords. The winners received €600, €400 and €200 respectively.
