The way we learned to count syllables was "count the vowels". Or, if you're not sure, try to sing the word, one syllable - one note. Including the funny cases where the song requires the singer to extend the r-as-vowel (which actually happens quite often - drvo (tree), srce (heart), prvi (first), rđa (rust)... and, surprise surprise, Hrvatska (Croatia) and Srbija (Serbia) :).

Is this another area where English language has its own units of measure?
