Mít teplotu

To have a fever

Having a high body temperature.

🌍

문화적 배경

The '37 degree rule': In Czechia, 37.0°C is the strict cutoff. If you have 36.9, you are fine. If you have 37.0, you have 'teplotu' and are officially sick. The use of 'Paralen': When someone has 'teplotu', the most common cultural response is to suggest taking a 'Paralen' (paracetamol), which is the most famous brand in the region. Sick days: Many Czech companies offer 'sick days'. Using 'mám teplotu' is the most common justification for taking one without needing a formal doctor's note for just one day. The 'hand on forehead' test: Czech parents are experts at detecting 'teplotu' just by kissing or touching a child's forehead, often before even using a thermometer.

⚠️

The 'Jsem teplý' Trap

This is the #1 mistake for English speakers. Always use 'Mám' (I have) not 'Jsem' (I am).

💡

Celsius Only

Czechia uses Celsius. If you say you have a temperature of 100, people will think you are boiling!

If you tell a Czech you have 'teplotu', expect to be offered tea immediately.

Usually no. It means a mild fever (37-38°C). For a high fever, use 'mít horečku'.

No, for a car engine you would say 'motor se přehřívá' (the motor is overheating).

Yes, it is perfectly professional and neutral.

There isn't a direct opposite idiom, you would just say 'nemám teplotu' or 'jsem zdravý'.

Because it is the object of the verb 'mít', so it must be in the accusative case.

Yes, that means 'I have hot skin', which is a way to describe the symptom.

No, it is standard Czech used by everyone from children to doctors.

Měl jsem teplotu (male) or Měla jsem teplotu (female).

In Czechia, that is considered normal. You do NOT have 'teplotu'.

It's better to say 'vysokou teplotu' (high temperature).
