For example, someone here tells you to <em>go to budica. <\/em>Budica is a local term for newsagents. One unusual, but typical verb used in Vinkovci is widely known \u2013 if you find young people sitting on the benches in the park, for example, and ask them what they are doing, they will probably answer: Nothing, <em>lapimo.<\/em> (It means the same as hlapimo (evaporate), but with the letter h at the beginning of the word being silent in typical \u0160okci style<em>.<\/em>) <em>Lapiti<\/em>\u00a0expresses passive rebellion of young people, typical for Vinkovci, which means we are idling, doing nothing, as if to spite the traditional image of the diligent and hardworking Slavonian man.<\/p>\n<p>The expression <em>De, dobro je<\/em> (It\u2019s OK) is a bit more difficult to explain. It is a way for the people of Vinkovci to make you to stop talking \u2013 <em>de, dobro je<\/em>\u00a0also means that they don\u2019t want to listen or discuss something anymore. It means they don\u2019t believe you completely. They might even be a little angry. So, paradoxically, it is not very good, but the discussion is over.<\/p>\n<p>You may have noticed that there is a red telephone box in the park in the town centre, the kind you may know from English movies? It is a telephone box that all the inhabitants of Vinkovci feel as their own, and it is a gift from an Englishman (his name is Steve Gaunt) who came here to fight in the Homeland War. Then he stayed and became an inhabitant of Vinkovci, and the telephone box became ours.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tipi\u010dno Vinkova\u010dko U vinkova\u010dkom se govoru \u010duje \u010ditav niz utjecaja \u2013 od \u0161oka\u010dke ikavice, turcizama i germanizama do mno\u0161tva specifi\u010dnih lokalizama.
