Novac is the general word for money in Croatian and is used in both formal and informal contexts. It usually behaves like a mass noun (you don't count 'one novac'), so speakers use phrases like 'dosta novca' (a lot of money) or specific currency names (e.g., 'eura', 'kuna') when counting. Colloquial synonyms like 'pare' are common in casual speech.
