意味
To sleep very soundly and peacefully.
文化的背景
In Serbia, mountain air is considered a 'cure' for insomnia. Places like Zlatibor are famous for making people 'sleep like babies'. The concept of 'merak' (pleasure/bliss) often includes the ability to sleep well without a care in the world. Traditional wooden cradles (kolevke) are still symbols of the deep sleep this idiom describes. In the busy city, 'spavati kao beba' is often used as a boast, as urban noise usually prevents it.
