뜻
Doing something very quickly.
문화적 배경
In Bulgarian folk songs, heroes often perform tasks 'на един дъх' to show their supernatural strength. This reflects a cultural history where physical endurance was highly prized. When offered a 'rakia' (traditional brandy), drinking it 'на един дъх' (as a shot) is common among friends, though sipping is more formal. It shows a sense of 'nazdrave' (cheers) and camaraderie. In the fast-paced life of Sofia, 'на един дъх' is used to complain about or celebrate how quickly time passes or how fast one must work. Bulgarian critics often use this phrase to praise 'unputdownable' books, emphasizing the emotional connection between the reader and the text.
