معنی
To have goosebumps.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Slovenia, 'kurja polt' is a common topic of conversation during the 'burja' wind in the Primorska region. It's a badge of survival against the cold wind. Many Slavic cultures share the 'chicken skin' metaphor, reflecting a shared agricultural history where chickens were more common than geese for the average peasant. Music critics in Slovenia often use the phrase to describe 'jeans-and-t-shirt' honesty in rock music or the emotional weight of 'popevka' songs. In the mountains, having 'kurja polt' is a signal to head to the 'planinska koča' (mountain hut) for some tea or 'jota'.
