BosanskiBlack coffee in Bosnian
crna kahva
crna kahva is how you say black coffee (no milk) in Bosnian.
How it's used
Black coffee, no milk, the Bosnian default. You will also hear kafa.
From the lesson: Coffee Ritual
Bosnian kahva isn't a caffeine delivery system, it's a two-hour institution. Rushing your fildžan is like leaving a wedding after the appetizer. When nana says 'polako', she means the coffee, the conversation, and life in general.
