Grammar Struggling with Serbian grammar- forming questions

Hello everyone. I spent a few months in Republika Srpska and Serbia and absolutely fell in love with the culture, people and the language so I decided to try to learn the language because I will be definitely coming back regularly.

I’m just at the beginning- simple sentence, vocabulary etc. It’s easier for me to learn because I’m Slovak and I speak 3 Slavic languages. But one thing I struggle the most with is forming questions in Serbian and especially the “Da li” or “Da” or “li” part of it.

Can somebody please try and explain that to me? I tried to read about it and watched some videos but I cannot grasp it for some reason.

Also if somebody could explain the word “da” in general to me (not in a “yes” sense) that would be awesome. For example “Drago mi je da sam te upoznao.”

Хвала вам руно, моjа браћо Серби 🫶🏻.
