OroCommerce Serbian Latin Translation - Part 1 (~2174 words)
OroCommerce Repository
Project progress
I've started translating OroCommerce in Serbian Latin, as planned.
In that way, this large project will become available to a broader audience (most of the former Yugoslav countries), because of the extreme similarities between our languages.
A little bit of Yugo-nostalgia, source

This also gives me the opportunity to perform double check of my own work and to go through all 20 934 words again, making 100% sure that not a single mistake went unnoticed.
And to potentially change some strings in both Cyrillic and Latin letters in case I come up with even better translation solution (#perfectionistgoals).
Project details
OroCommerce is a B2B (business-to-business) eCommerce, which means that enables electronic transactions between two or more business entities over the internet. This concept was made to improve buying efficiency for companies.
How B2B concept works? Companies are providing components or raw materials to one another via B2B transactions, and when a company has a finished product, the sale of that product to the end customer is performed via B2C (business-to-consumer) transaction. For example, a laptop manufacturer must make several B2B transactions to buy components such as mother boards, processors, graphic cards, memory, etc. in order to make a laptop. Once a company has made a laptop, it makes a single B2C transaction and sells it to the customer.

Translation Overview and Word Count
OroCommerce project contains 20 934 words in total, and I translated approx. 2174 words in this 1st part of the project. This is approximately 10% of the whole project.
Languages
The project was written in English, and my assignment was to translate it to Serbian Latin.
I expected to see the video for "Ja sam Yugoslovenka" for Yugonostalgic part. *(negative point...)
OroCommerce will be even more suitable for about 15 million potential users after you finish the task.
Concerning the accuracy, there were traps, especially with the word "Customer", with 3 more suitable versions in our language. You needed to choose which one to use and when.
This part mainly consisted of 1-2 sentence(s) long strings, reasonably difficult. Legibility is excellent. As Yugoslav people would say, it's "drinkable" (pitko)
You are the only translator, thus the consistency is, well, perfect...
2000 words reflect the devotion

Tbh, I was thinking of adding the most famous ode to Yugoslavia, full of pride and love for that country that no longer exists.
Especially because of the controversy behind the song and the video, given that the both came out in the 1989., when Yugoslavia started to fall apart, explicitly showing the personal opinion of the most popular singer of the time on the whole matter.
My favorite part is definitely at 2:24, with her on the boat, proudly holding the flag with the star.
So, to fulfill the song request of @alexs1320, Ja sam Jugoslovenka (I am a Yugoslavian):
2 late 4 changing the verdict, but still, even 30 years after the release this video is simply great
Thank you for your review, @alexs1320! Keep up the good work!
