Bedeutung
A clear sky during the day.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'plavo nebo' is often associated with the 'Kosovo Maiden' and epic poetry, where nature reflects the mood of the nation. In Montenegro, the phrase is inseparable from the sea. The 'plavetnilo' (blueness) of the sky and sea are often described as one. In the flat plains of Vojvodina, the sky seems larger. People often talk about the 'beskrajno' (endless) plavo nebo. In Belgrade, 'plavo nebo' is a relief from the 'košava' (strong wind) and grey smog of winter.
Agreement is Key
Always remember that 'nebo' is neuter. If you use other adjectives like 'lepo' (beautiful) or 'čisto' (clean), they must also end in -o.
Not for Moods
Never say 'I am blue' using this word. You will confuse people!
