This paper offers an overview of the presence of the german language and culture in Serbia. The focus lies on the region Vojvodina, as it has the greatest significance for the spread of the German language, culture and literature in Serbia, and there German as a foreign language is still strongly represented in schools. At the same time, it presents the status of the German teacher training in Serbia and discusses some perspectives in this domain.
This paper deals with German and Serbian idioms which contain the numeral seven (germ. Sieben, serb. sedam) in order to determine and analyse the different types of equivalence that exist between these German and Serbian idiomatic expressions. It is also an aim of this paper to define the semantics of the numeral seven or sedam, as the similarities and differences between German and Serbian provide interesting results. The results of this paper are to the benefit of the students in German studies, but also students who study German as a foreign language.
