意味
The anniversary of one's birth.
文化的背景
The 'Abraham' tradition is unique. Turning 50 is the biggest birthday milestone. Friends often set up a 'strašilo' (scarecrow/doll) in front of the person's house. The birthday person is expected to bring food (pogostitev) for colleagues. It's usually a mix of savory (narezki) and sweet (torta, potica). In some villages, neighbors might 'shoot' with small mortars (možnarji) early in the morning to wake up the person having a birthday. Younger people are moving toward Western styles of celebration, like going out to clubs, but the phrase 'imeti rojstni dan' remains unchanged.
The 'Treat' Rule
If you tell Slovenians you have a birthday, be prepared to offer them something to eat or drink!
Don't say 'Sem rojstni dan'
This is the most common mistake for English speakers. Always use 'imam'.
