Description The paper deals with difficulties faced by students of the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University in Brno while they learn Croatian as a second and foreign language. These complications are caused either by the students' lack of awareness about the nature of a foreign language or their unfamiliarity with the process of translation.

The paper contains tables with the students' translation solutions confronted with the more suitable suggestions.
