vrijeme

== Serbo-Croatian == === Alternative forms === vreme (Ekavian) vrime (Ikavian) brijeme, brime (southern coastal dialects) === Etymology === From Proto-Slavic *vermę. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ʋrjěːme/ Hyphenation: vrije‧me === Noun === vrijéme n (Cyrillic spelling врије́ме) time rȃdno vrijéme ― working hours na vrijéme ― on time u pòsljednje vrijéme ― recently, in recent times gùbiti vrijéme ― to waste time krátiti vrijéme ― to kill time ȕkorāk (Serbian: ȕ korāk) s vrȅmenom ― keeping up with the times weather lijȇpo vrijéme ― nice weather epoch ==== Usage notes ==== Vsg. accent vrijȇme is assumed by Klaić. Other sources do not mention the alteration. In oblique sg. cases the proclitic accent shift varies. Daničić and Klaić provide weakened: pò vremenu. Budmani and László provide non-weakened: dȍ vremena. NAsg. accent can also shift: vrijéme, ȕ vrijēme (not mentioned by Daničić; not regarded as standard by Ivšić and Klaić, who instead use: u vrijème); similarly when prefixed: nȅvrijēme. In various, particularly coastal and Kajkavian dialects the NAsg. accent is falling as well: vrijȇme/vrȉjeme/vrȋme, etc. Dialectal variants: Štokavian: Boka Kotorska: brȉjeme (Prčanj, Kavač, Mrkovići), brijème (Luštica) Dubrovnik: brijéme, nȁ brijēme Imotska krajina: vríme/vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Lsg. vrȉmenu/vrimènu Kostrč: vríme, Gsg. vrȅmena, Npl. vremenã, Gpl. vremēnȃ Ozrinići: vrȉjeme Piva, Drobnjak: vréme, Gsg. vrȅmena, ȍd vremena Uskoci: vriʲème, Gsg. vrȅmena, ȍd vremena / òd vremena Zeta-Raška dialect: vrii̯emȅ Čakavian: Grobnik: vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Npl. vrimenȁ, Gpl. vrimȇn Hvar (island): vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Npl. vrimenȁ, Gpl. vrimẽn; nã vrime (Vrboska) Korčula: brȋme, Gsg. brȉmena Novi Vinodolski: vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Npl. vrimenã/vrȉmena, Gpl. vrimẽn Senj: vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Npl. vrimẽna, Gpl. vrimẽni Vrgada: vrȋme, Gsg. vrȉmena, Npl. vrimenḁ̃ Kajkavian: Bednja: vrȋema, Gsg. vrȅmeno, Npl. vremãno, Gpl. vremãn Gornja Konjščina: vri̯ẹ̑mȩ, Gsg. vrẹ̏mẹna, Npl. vrẹmȩ̃na, Gpl. vrẹmȩ̑n Varaždin: vrẹ̑mȩ, Gsg. vrȩ̏mȩna, Npl. vrȩmȩ̏na, Gpl. vrȩmȩ̑n/vrȩmȩ̏nah Zagreb: vrje̍me, Gsg. vre̍mena, Npl.=Gpl. vreme̍na ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== === References === “vrijeme”, in Hrvatski jezični portal [Croatian language portal] (in Serbo-Croatian), 2006–2026
