Bedeutung
A very common weather expression.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Children often sing 'Süss fel nap' to bring out the sun. This reflects an ancient belief in the sun as a protective deity for livestock. When 'süt a nap', the 'terasz' (terrace) culture explodes. Hungarians will sit outside even in chilly weather if the sun is 'baking'. The term 'hétágra süt' refers to the sun's rays looking like seven branches of a candelabra, a sign of a good harvest. Hungarian poets like Sándor Petőfi often used the sun as a symbol of freedom and revolution.
The 'Baking' Connection
Remember that 'süt' is for baking. If you can remember how to say 'I bake a cake' (Sütit sütök), you'll never forget how to say the sun is shining!
Don't use 'is'
Never say 'A nap van'. It sounds like you are questioning the existence of the sun.
