معنی

Expressing a preference for coffee.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In Slovenia, 'going for coffee' (iti na kavo) is a social institution. It can happen at any time of day and usually lasts at least an hour. Despite the rise of espresso, 'turška kava' remains the heart of Slovenian homes. It is thick, strong, and often served with a side of gossip. In western Slovenia (near the border), coffee culture is heavily influenced by Italy. People often drink a quick 'espresso' or 'makijato' at the bar. Slovenians who love coffee are called 'kofetkarji'. It's a playful term for someone who can't live without their daily cup.

Yes! 'Imam te rad' means 'I love you' (to a friend, child, or partner). It is the most common way to express love.

'Rad imam' is for personal, long-term preferences. 'Všeč mi je' is for things that are pleasing to your senses or aesthetics.

Just add 'zelo' (very): 'Zelo imam rad kavo.'

Only when it's the object. If you say 'Coffee is good', it's 'Kava je dobra'.

No, it's optional. 'Rad imam kavo' is more common than 'Jaz imam rad kavo'.

Slovenian is a gendered language. Most non-binary people choose the gender they feel most comfortable with or use the plural 'radi' in specific circles, though this is still evolving.

Almost! It should be 'Rad pijem kavo' (I like drinking coffee). You drop the 'imam'.

Usually between 1.50€ and 2.50€ in a cafe. It's considered very affordable.
