뜻
Asking if there is no cost
문화적 배경
Czechs are very price-sensitive and love 'akce' (sales). Asking 'Je to zdarma?' is a sign of a smart shopper, not a 'cheap' person. Many attractions in Prague offer 'free' entry on certain days (e.g., National Gallery). Always check the website for 'vstup zdarma'. Unlike in the US, bread and water are often NOT free in Czech restaurants. Always ask before you eat the bread basket. Czech e-shops often use 'Doprava zdarma' (Free shipping) as a major selling point.
The 'Zadarmo' Twin
Don't worry if you hear 'zadarmo' instead of 'zdarma'. They are the same thing! 'Zdarma' is just a bit more 'proper'.
The Water Trap
In Czech restaurants, if you ask for 'vodu' (water), they will bring expensive bottled water. Always ask 'Je kohoutková voda zdarma?'

1+1 Zdarma
Look for signs that say '1+1 zdarma'. This is the Czech version of 'Buy One Get One Free'.
Don't be shy
Czechs are very practical. It is perfectly normal to ask if something is free. It doesn't make you look poor; it makes you look smart.
