Quantifiers in Serbian grammar are an important part of the sentence because they indicate the quantity of items or the degree of action. They are often identified by the question words “Koliko?” (How much?) or “Koliko puta?” (How many times?). They can be used in various contexts depending on their type. Moreover, they are also affected by the gender, case and number of the noun they are quantifying, which makes their usage a bit complex but interesting to learn.
