Bedeutung
A hard job or exercise.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Slovenians often use 'težka naloga' when talking about baking 'Potica'. It's a traditional cake that is a litmus test for a good cook. In Slovenian schools, 'naloga' usually refers to homework. If a teacher says 'Imate težko nalogo', students know they will be busy all weekend. Climbing Mt. Triglav is seen as a national 'naloga'. Every Slovenian should do it once, even though it is a 'težka naloga' for many. Slovenian business culture is modest. Using 'težka naloga' is a way to show you are serious and not over-confident.
Gender Matching
Always remember that 'naloga' is feminine. If you change the noun to 'izziv' (challenge), which is masculine, you must say 'težek izziv'.
Use 'Trd oreh' for flair
To sound like a native, use 'To je pa trd oreh' when you encounter a particularly tricky problem.
