The First Lady of America spoke in Serbian/Croatian while visiting Los Angeles and families affected by wildfires.
While visiting the wildfire site in Los Angeles, Melania Trump spoke with residents, including a woman who addressed her in Serbo-Croatian a very similar language to Sloven ian. Since Mrs. Trump is Slovenian and grew up in Yugoslavia, she immediately responded in Serbo-Croatian.
“Good afternoon,” said one of the women who had lost her home in the fire.
“Good afternoon, how are you?” Melania replied.
The two embraced and kissed on the cheek before chatting about the woman’s journey to America and the losses she suffered in the wildfire. Melania tried to offer her some encouragement.
“You’ve lost everything?” she asked, adding, “It will get better.”
