Inviting someone to enter a room.
خلفية ثقافية
Slovenians value their private space. Entering someone's home without a clear 'Pridite naprej' is considered quite intrusive. In Slovenian offices, 'Pridite naprej' is often said while the person is still seated, indicating they are busy but you may enter. In rural areas, 'Pridite noter' is more common, whereas 'Pridite naprej' is the standard in urban, professional settings. The phrase is the start of a ritual. Once you are 'naprej', you are expected to take off your shoes and accept a drink.

Slovenians appreciate a smile with this phrase. It softens the imperative mood and makes it a true welcome.
Watch the '-te'
