Croatia is a country of beautiful natural resources and boasts a wealth of languages. We own three dialects: Chakavian, Kajkavian and Stokavian. With our birth, and learning the first words, we accept certain homeland speech. That speech marked us and monitored throughout life. Every speech, a particular dialect, carries special phonology and morphology, a feature which distinguishes it from other local dialects. In this study we examined how much our homeland speech helps or hinders our education. The study was conducted in two schools, one in Lika in Brinje and the other in suburb of Zagreb, in Brezovica. The aim of the research was how many students in Brinje and in Brezovica, considering the place of residence and the local speech, accurately mark the letters Č and Ć in particular poem. During the study could easily find that local speech certainly helps in tackling this problem so that students from Brinje were better, faster and more accurate in solving the task of students in Brezovica. A big reason for this is homeland speech of Brinje which is better in recognition letters Č and Ć from Zagreb, which in itself difficult to distinguish the letters and that Č and Ć in the speech are the same pronunciation.
