I will not dispute your better knowledge of the language (nevertheless, it is Montenegrin and not Serbian and the Montenegrin language is the official language in Montenegro). In fact, I should write "a better knowledge of the nuances of the Montenegrin language" rather than the language itself. I apologize for misunderstanding.

I have mentioned examples of these nuances in my previous posts and I will not repeat them again. At least please add a source for the "1896" claimed birth year for Ms. Mučić. The data on Gerontology Wiki should base on sources cited.

As for the questions marks on centenarian's birth years: yes, it is usual on Gerontology Wiki to not make centenarians a questionable cases. This is because these centenarians are, in the vast majority, verifiable or at least there is no information that casts serious doubt on their claimed years of birth. However, where there is a doubt, this must be taken into account. "According to some information" ("Prema nekim podacima" in Montenegrin) is a classic example for a doubt.

In the Balkans, the so-called longevity myth is an integral part of the national/regional folklore. Therefore, all cases of extreme longevity (also people aged 105+ and not only sc claimants) need to be particularly carefully considered.
