Bedeutung
A noise with high volume.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Slovak cities, 'nočný kľud' is strictly enforced. Making a 'hlasný zvuk' after 10 PM can lead to fines. Church bells are a traditional 'hlasný zvuk' that marks the time and important events in villages. During 'Fašiangy' (Carnival), loud noises are used to drive away winter spirits. Slovaks are generally reserved in public; a 'hlasný zvuk' in a library or train is considered very rude.
Volume Control
When you want someone to turn down the volume, say 'Stíš ten hlasný zvuk, prosím.'
False Friends
Don't use 'hlasný' for 'bright' colors, even though English sometimes uses 'loud' for colors. Use 'výrazný' or 'krikľavý'.
