Overview
Of course, the everyday speach and use does not differentiante among
these finesses — and the three words
"zastava",
"barjak" and
"stijeg" are virtually synonyms.

"Barjak" is a word derived from Turkish
"bayrak", often used in poetry and
“poetical” use, but also it refers to such kind of flags
that may deserve to get into poems — if you know what I mean
— like the military colours and similar.

"Steg

"standard"
— the flag that denotes the "standing /
standpoint" of its owner. In this regard it
is reserved for the postional flags, more or less. It is also a
prefered term for the flag staff (“man-high”, but
even for the flag pole, although there are others for that use
as well).
