Bosnian is one of the three official languages of Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with Croatian and Serbian. It is also an officially recognized minority or regional language in Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, and Macedonia.[citation needed]Standard Bosnian uses a Latin alphabet. Bosnian is notable among the varieties of Serbo-Croatian for a number of Arabic, Ottoman Turkish and Persian loanwords, largely due to the language's interaction with those cultures through Islamic ties.Standard Bosnian is based on the most widespread dialect of Serbo-Croatian, Shtokavian, more specifically on Eastern Herzegovinian, which is also the basis of Standard Croatian, Serbian, and Montenegrin. Until the dissolution of SFR Yugoslavia, they were treated as a unitary Serbo-Croatian language, and that term is still used in English to subsume the common base (vocabulary, grammar and syntax) of what are today officially four national standards, although this term is controversial for native speakers, and paraphrases such as "Bosnian-Croatian-Montenegrin-Serbian" are therefore sometimes used instead, especially in diplomatic circles.Several linguists and socio-political advocates claim Bosnian to be not only a standard language of the Bosniaks, but of all of Bosnia and Herzegovina, drawing on historical evidence where the regional term Bosnian is attested.The Charter of Kulin Ban from 1189, written in Bosnian Cyrillic is the oldest document of its kind among the South Slavic languages and is currently in a Saint Petersburg museum.At the vernacular level, Bosniaks are more linguistically homogeneous than Serbs or Croats which also speak non-standard dialects beside Shtokavian.The first official dictionary in the Bosnian language, authored by Muhamed Hevaji Uskufi, was printed in the early 1630s, while, comparatively, the first dictionary in Serbian was printed only in the mid-19th century.. }
