معنی
The act of preparing a coffee.
زمینه فرهنگی
Coffee is a social ritual. 'Going for coffee' (на кафе) can last for hours and is the primary way people socialize. Traditional 'Turkish' coffee is still very popular, especially among older generations, and is made in a 'dzhezve'. The coffee machine is the 'water cooler' of Bulgarian offices. Making coffee is a valid reason to stop working for 15 minutes. Espresso is the king of the city. Most people 'пускат кафе' (run a coffee) from a machine at home.
Use the Diminutive
Say 'направя кафенце' to sound much more like a native speaker when offering a drink to a friend.
Don't say 'взимам'
Avoid translating 'take a coffee' literally. Use 'правя' for making it and 'пия' for drinking it.
