خلفية ثقافية
Slovenians often stay in the same town their whole lives, meaning 'stari prijatelji' are often people they have known since kindergarten. In the wider Balkan region, an 'old friend' is treated like family and is often invited to all major family celebrations (slava, weddings). In rural areas, 'star prijatelj' might also imply a family connection that spans generations (your fathers were also friends). In the capital, the phrase is often used more loosely to include people from university or first jobs.
The Dual Rule
If you are talking about TWO old friends, remember to use 'dva stara prijatelja'. It's a classic Slovenian trap!
Gender Matters
Always check if the friend is male or female before you start the sentence. 'Star' vs 'Stara' is a big difference.
