bosanskog

Bosanskog is the genitive singular masculine and neuter form of the adjective bosanski, meaning “Bosnian.” In the languages of the former Yugoslavia (Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian), bosanski inflects to indicate grammar such as possession, attribution, or relation to Bosnia or the Bosnian language.

As a grammatical form, bosanskog is used with masculine singular nouns in the genitive case and with neuter nouns in the genitive as well. For feminine nouns, the corresponding genitive singular form is bosanske, and for plural genitives the form is bosanskih. These endings reflect the standard adjective declension in this language family.

Usage examples:

- knjiga bosanskog pisca — a book by a Bosnian writer

- kultura bosanskog naroda — culture of the Bosnian people

- jezik bosanskog jezika — a phrase in which bosanskog helps specify relation to the Bosnian language in a larger construction

In phrases describing origin or affiliation, bosanskog often appears with proper or common nouns to denote “of Bosnian origin” or “of the Bosnian language.” It is not a standalone noun; it functions as a modifier that agrees with the noun it accompanies.

Etymology and related forms:

The form derives from Bosna, the name of the country/region, combined with the derivational suffix -ski, which yields the adjective meaning “Bosnian.” Related forms include bosanski (masculine nominative singular), bosanska (feminine nominative singular), and bosansko (neuter nominative/accusative).
