المعنى
Feeling physically well.
خلفية ثقافية
Slovenians often use 'Na zdravje!' not just for toasts, but also when someone sneezes. It reflects the high value placed on physical health in a nation of hikers. In villages, being 'zdrav' is often proven by one's ability to do hard physical labor. A 'zdrav kmečki fant' (healthy farm boy) is a common trope. Slovenia is famous for its 'zdravilišča' (health spas). People go there to 'postati zdravi' (become healthy) using thermal water. There is a saying that 'mountain air makes you healthy'. Many Slovenians head to the Alps every weekend for this reason.
The 'V' sound
Remember that 'zdrav' ends in a 'v' that sounds like a 'w'. Don't pronounce it like a sharp 'v' as in 'victory'.
Gender Agreement
Always check if you are talking to a man (zdrav) or a woman (zdrava). Slovenians are sensitive to this!
