===Serbo-Croatian=== Four standard variants of the [[Pluricentric language#Serbo-Croatian|pluricentric Serbo-Croatian]] are spoken in [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]], [[Croatia]], [[Montenegro]], and [[Serbia]].{{sfnp|Kordić|2007}}{{sfnp|Šipka|2019|pp=166,206}} They all have the [[Language secessionism#In Serbo-Croatian|same dialect]] basis ([[Shtokavian dialect|Štokavian]]).{{sfnp|Blum|2002}}{{sfnp|Brozović|1992|pp=347–380}}{{sfnp|Kristophson|2000|pp=178–186}} These variants do differ slightly, as is the case with other pluricentric languages,{{sfnp|Blum|2002}}{{sfnp|Kordić|2009}} but not to a degree that would justify considering them as [[Language secessionism#In Serbo-Croatian|different languages]]. The differences between the variants do not hinder mutual intelligibility and do not undermine the integrity of the system as a whole.{{sfnp|Pohl|1996|p=214, 219}}{{sfnp|Kordić|2004}}{{sfnp|Kafadar|2009|p=103}} Compared to the differences between the variants of English, German, French, Spanish, or Portuguese, the distinctions between the variants of Serbo-Croatian are less significant.{{sfnp|Thomas|2003|p=314}}{{sfnp|Methadžović|2015}}Nonetheless, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro have all named the language differently in their constitutions.{{sfnp|Gröschel|2009|p=344–350}}
