### Saying yes the Croatian way
**Može** — literally "it can" — is how Croatians agree to a suggestion: {{item:1077916}} It is the everyday yes to any plan or offer.

### Smoothing the conversation
| formula | use |
| --- | --- |
| **Nema problema.** | no problem — agreeing to help |
| **Nema veze.** | never mind — after an apology or mishap |
| **Samo trenutak.** | just a moment — asking someone to wait |
| **Samo malo!** | excuse me — making way in a crowd, or politely interrupting |
| **Evo.** | here you are — handing something over |
{{item:1077922}}

### Enough and no time
**Dosta mi je** means I have had enough of something (with the genitive): {{item:1077937}} **Nemam vremena** — I have no time — uses the genitive of vrijeme.

### Wishes
**Dobar provod!** (have fun), **Puno sreće!** (good luck) — and when something goes wrong, you will hear **sranje** (shit), which is rude but everywhere.
