뜻
A bus that travels slowly.
문화적 배경
Public transport is highly reliable, so calling a bus 'pomalý' is a specific critique of its route or the driver, not necessarily the system as a whole. In villages, the 'pomalý autobus' is often the only way to get to the nearest town, leading to a love-hate relationship with the service. Expats often use this phrase to bond over the struggle of learning the complex bus network outside the metro zones. Older generations might associate 'pomalý autobus' with the old blue and white Karosa buses that lacked air conditioning and struggled on hills.
Agreement is Key
Always remember that 'autobus' is masculine. If you switch to 'tramvaj', you must say 'pomalá tramvaj'.
Don't say 'Slowly Bus'
Learners often use the adverb 'pomalu' instead of the adjective 'pomalý'. It's always 'pomalý autobus'.
