Odgovoriti na poziv

To answer a call

意味

Picking up the telephone.

🌍

文化的背景

When answering the phone, Croatians often say 'Molim?' which means 'Please?' or 'I'm listening'. It is considered more polite than just 'Da?' (Yes?). There is a strong culture of 'cimanje' (giving a missed call). People might 'cimnuti' to let someone know they are outside their house without actually wanting them to answer. In Croatian business, it is expected to answer calls between 8 AM and 4 PM. Answering outside these hours is common but not always required. Younger generations in Croatia are increasingly avoiding 'odgovaranje na poziv' in favor of texting on WhatsApp or Viber.

💡

The 'Na' Rule

Always remember the 'na'. Without it, the sentence sounds like you are answering 'the call' as if it were a person.

⚠️

Don't say 'Odgovori telefon'

This is a literal translation from English and is incorrect in Croatian.
