Nice to meet you in Bosnian

drago mi je
phraseTaught in: Family & Greetings

drago mi je is how you say nice to meet you in Bosnian.

How it's used

Literally 'it is dear to me'.

From the lesson: Introductions

When you meet older relatives, expect a cheek kiss (usually two or three, region-dependent) and 'čija si ti?', 'whose are you?', because in Bosnia you're identified by your family first. Being able to answer 'Ja sam [name], [dad's name] sin/kćerka' is social gold.
