Bosnian is one of the three official languages spoken in Bosnia-Herzegovina due to its mixed population (Muslim Bosnians, Croats, and Bosnian Serbs). Along with Croatian, Slovene,  Serbian, and Montenegrin, Bosnian belongs to the western group of the South Slavic Languages.

Bosnian, босански (bosanski) belongs to the South Slavic group of the Slavic branch of the Indo-European language family. After the breakup of Yugoslavia, Serbo-Croatian, defined as the common language of Serbs, Croats, Bosniaks and Montenegrins, officially split into three mutually intelligible languages — Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian. These languages are based largely on political, rather than linguistic considerations. Although Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian differ in a number of ways, these differences do not affect their mutual intelligibility due to the fact that they share a common sound system, grammar, and vocabulary.

Standard Bosnian, based on the Shtokavian dialect Ijekavian pronunciation, is the official language of Bosnia and Hercegovina. It is spoken by approximately 2 million people in Bosnia. It is also spoken in Serbia, Croatia, and Montenegro (Ethnologue). Standardization of Bosnian has not been completed due to disagreement among specialists about the features that make Bosnian uniquely distinct from Serbian and Croatian.
