The Užice dialect or Zlatibor dialect (Serbo-Croatian: užički govor / ужички говор or zlatiborski govor / златиборски говор) is a subdialect of the Shtokavian dialect of the Serbo-Croatian language. It is part of the Eastern Herzegovinian subdialects. It is traditionally spoken by c. 500,000 people – the Bosniaks and Serbs of the region – in the Zlatibor and Moravica Districts in the Užice region (Stari Vlah) in the southwestern part of Serbia.

One of the earliest mentions of the local dialect of Užice region is found in Ottoman geographer Evliya Çelebi's record on his visit to the Užice nahiya in 1664. In his travelogue, the language of Užičans is called the Bosnian language.

Today Orthodox people in the Užice region usually say they speak Serbian, whereas Muslims (who primarily dwell in the municipalities of Nova Varoš, Priboj, Prijepolje, and Sjenica in the Zlatibor District) say they speak Bosnian. The name Serbo-Croatian was also used during the Yugoslav era.
