A common work or personal task.
Contexto cultural
Slovaks are very particular about academic titles in emails. If someone is an engineer (Ing.) or a doctor (MUDr.), it is polite to include this in the greeting. The transition from 'Vykánie' (formal) to 'Tykánie' (informal) often happens via email in a professional setting after a few exchanges. Emails are often very direct. While a polite greeting is required, the 'small talk' found in US emails is often skipped to get straight to the point. Younger generations often drop diacritics (accents) when writing informal emails or 'mejly' to save time, though this is frowned upon in formal contexts.
