izdanja

Izdanja is a term used in Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, and related South Slavic languages to denote the editions or publications of a work. The noun izdanje forms the singular, and izdanja is the plural. It originates from the verb izdati, to issue or publish, with the prefix iz- indicating release to the public.

In publishing, izdanje refers to a specific version of a work that has been issued. This may be a particular print run, a revised or expanded version, or a reissue marketed at a later date. Common expressions include prvo izdanje (first edition), novo izdanje (new edition), dopunjeno izdanje (expanded/updated edition), and ponovljeno izdanje (reprint). Bibliographic records typically attach izdanje to information such as godina izdavanja (year of publication), tiraza (print run), and ISBN or other identifiers.

Beyond books, izdanje can describe releases of multimedia products such as music albums, films, or software, though domain-specific terms are often used as well. The precise nuance of izdanje can differ by language and context, but it consistently conveys the notion of a particular issued version of a work.
