Sažetak

Croatian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integrations
has a longtime successful practise of offering scholarships for Croatian
language study programme in the Republic of Croatia to descendants
of Croatian emigrants in the second, third and fourth generation. The
people who apply for Croatian language study scholarships are mostly
young people in their 20s from Latin American countries (Chile,
Argentina, Venezuela, Columbia, Peru). Croatian language courses
which last one term (240 hours of teaching per semester) are offered
and take place at the Faculty of Philosophy in Split. Since the majority
of Croatian language course attendees lack any previous foreign
language study experience, they start acquiring Croatian as an entirely
foreign language, in addition to being in Croatia for the first time.
Having in mind all these factors, the first phase of language acquisition
can be exceptionally stressful and this paper shows the experience of
introducing Spanish speaking students to Croatian language through
the means of common cultural components of the “guest“ language and
the “host“ language.
