Slovene (or Slovenian) is a language. It is the official language of Slovenia.

Experts estimate that 2.5 million people can understand and speak Slovene.[2] It is a Slavic language, written for more than 1000 years.[3] The earliest written records are the Freising manuscripts.[4]

In 2004, it became an official language of the European Union (there are 24 official languages in total).[5] The standard Slovene alphabet has 25 letters.[6] The letters come from the Latin alphabet. Slovene words are usually pronounced how they are spelled.[7]
