Ninac Vukoslavić (fl. 1450–59), called "the Serbian scribe" (dijak srpski),[1] was the scribe and chancellor at the court of Albanian lord Scanderbeg; he authored at least four of Scanderbeg's documents written in Old Serbian. Two of the documents were letters to the Republic of Ragusa. The Albanian court used Serbian for communicating with the neighbouring Slavs.[2] The 1450 letter in Slavic and Cyrillic sent to Ragusa by Skanderbeg from Lezhë, mentioned Ninac as his chancellor, and was signed as "Скедерь бегь" (Skeder beg).[3] He served as Scanderbeg's scribe for at least 9 years.[4]

In that time, in Albanian milieu, Serbian was a sort of official language in communicating with neighboring Slavic region. The language of these letters shows traces of Old Serbian, as well as other letters coming from Serbian Offices."
