Bosnia does not have a long coastline; as in many other Slavic languages, its word for sea is "more", which descended with little change from Proto-Indo-European *mori-, something like this:
🔈http://www.ancientsounds.net/eastern-origins/PIE-mori-to-Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian-more.wav
English "mere" (i.e. lake) descends from the same root:
🔈http://www.ancientsounds.net/eastern-origins/mere-from-PIE-mori.wav
So do Latin mare, French mer, German meer, Irish muir, Welsh môr, Lithuanian mãrė, and Ossetian mal.
