Dobro utro, Kako si, Hvala

Don't hate me if I haven't acquired an easy tongue for Srpski, but I am looking for a tutor or a writing pal to help me out before making the move in about a year from now.

Any idea where to look for an onlin Serbian community, besides Facebook, which I try to screen tightly?  An good Serbian language books on the market.  Unfortunately, Rosetta Stone does not yet make Serbian manuals :(

What's the best way to learn the grammar?  Is there some sort of rythmic tone I should memorize or is it just an acquired talent?  I have also noticed the intonations are very exaggerated when I listen to authentic speakers.  When do you exaggerate an intonation?  I think I use latin intonations when trying to speak...thus no one understands my simple phrases. 

Any learning advice is welcome and much appreciated :)

  5. Get a book called Srpski Jezik za Strance. It's excellent! I am using my cousin-in-law to teach me lessons over skype before I move there someday!
