How do you say...?

معنی

Asking for a translation or word.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Slovenians are very helpful toward language learners. Using this phrase shows you are making an effort, which is highly respected. In the capital, people might switch to English quickly. Stick to your Slovenian by following up with 'Hvala! Kako se pa reče...?' to keep the conversation in the target language. In the east, you might hear 'Kak se reče?' (dropping the 'o'). This is a common dialectal variation. In formal writing or news, you might see 'Kako se imenuje' instead of 'reče'.

🎯

Use your finger!

Combine 'Kako se reče temu?' with pointing to learn words for everything you see in Slovenia.

⚠️

Mind the Case

If you use a noun after 'reče', try to put it in the dative case (e.g., 'tej mizi' instead of 'ta miza').

Don't be shy

Slovenians love it when you ask. It's a great way to start a conversation with a local.

💡

Add 'že'

Say 'Kako se že reče...?' if you knew the word but forgot it. It makes you sound more like a native!
