Soon afterwards, he grew ill and left for medical treatment in Pest and Novi Sad, but was unable to receive treatment for his leg. After the founding of the Belgrade Higher School, Karadžić became one of its first students. Disappointed, Karadžić left for Jadar and began working as a scribe for Jakov Nenadović. Later on, he left for Belgrade in order to meet the highly respected scholar Dositej Obradović, and ask him to support his studies. After unsuccessful attempts to enroll in the gymnasium at Sremski Karlovci, for which 19 year-old Karadžić was too old, Karadžić left for Petrinje where he spent a few months learning Latin and German. Meanwhile, the First Serbian Uprising for Serbian independence from the Ottomans had broken out in 1804.
Since most of the time while in the monastery Karadžić was forced to pasture the livestock instead of studying, his father brought him back home. Throughout the whole region, regular schooling was not widespread at that time and his father at first did not allow him to go to Austria. In lieu of proper writing paper he was lucky if he could get cartridge wrappings. As a boy he learned calligraphy there, using a reed instead of a pen and a solution of gunpowder for ink. Karadžić continued his education in Loznica, in the Monastery of Tronoša.

Vuk Karadžić was fortunate to be a relative of Jevta Savić Čotrić, the only literate person in the region at the time, who taught him how to read and write. His family had a low infant survival rate, thus he was named Vuk ('wolf') so that witches and evil spirits would not hurt him (the name was traditionally given to strengthen the bearer). His family settled from Drobnjaci, and his mother was born in Ozrinići, Nikšić (modern Montenegro). Vuk Karadžić was born to parents Stefan and Jegda (née Zrnić) in the village of Tršić, near Loznica in Serbia, then a part of the Ottoman Empire.
