BosanskiSit in Bosnian
sjedi
sjedi is the Bosnian word for sit (down).
How it's used
The opening move of every visit.
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.
