Sažetak
Starting from the premise that language and culture are linked, this work is the result of examining Yugoslav pupils abroad in terms of their grasp of the elements of culture of the Serbo-Croatian (Croato-Serbian) speaking people. The work is a pilot study by nature. Included in the applied scale were elements of culture pertaining to six spheres (polite behaviour, non-verbal means of communication, lexical items denoting a cultu¬ral context, kinship terms, elements of cultural history, literary texts). The research was conducted among pupils in Switzerland (N = 70) and in Sweden (N = 57), some of whom were born in Yugoslavia, and some abroad. Yugoslav-born pupils had been expected to have a better grasp of the elements of culture pertaining to Serbo-Croatian (Croato-Ser¬bian) (= hypothesis). It was found out that (a) a greater number of Yugoslav-born pupils had a fair grasp of the elements of culture under study; (b) in comparison with Yugoslav-born pupils, foreign-born ones had both a poorer grasp of the selected elements of culture and an inadequate one, so that the pupil's answers to individual questions reflected an interference with the culture from the language of the host country.
