Vuk Stefanović Karadžić was a Serbian scholar who made important contributions to the reform of the modern Serbian language. He played a key role in Serbian folk-literature studies by gathering and safeguarding Serbian folktales. Karadžić created the initial Serbian dictionary in the reformed language and translated the New Testament into this revised form of Serbian spelling and language. His work had a significant impact beyond Serbia, with renowned figures such as Jacob Grimm, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and historian Leopold von Ranke acknowledging his accomplishments.
