Well, yeah, our local ones, we do usually, at least, understand what our neighbours are saying (Albanian is an exception, it’s not a slav language), and English nowadays. Used to be French or Russian back in the day, in the 60s, but at the end of the 60s, Yugoslavia had a good thing going with the US and a lot of things got centered towards the US, including culture (there was a hippy movement in Yugoslavia as well, not to mention YU rock, that’s a subgenre on it’s own) and which foreign languages were taught in school. English became the default at the end of the 60s, begining of the 70s.
