뜻
Store with high prices
문화적 배경
In Slovakia, people often check the 'leták' (flyer) for discounts before going to a shop. A 'drahý obchod' is often avoided unless there is a 'výpredaj' (sale). There is a significant price gap between the capital and the rest of the country. What is a 'normal' shop in Bratislava might be called a 'drahý obchod' in a small village in the north. Older Slovaks who grew up with fixed state prices are often more vocal about calling something a 'drahý obchod' compared to the younger generation. Slovaks love shopping malls (Aupark, Eurovea, Central). These are the primary locations where you will find a 'drahý obchod'. Malls are social hubs, not just retail spaces.
Check the ending
Always make sure 'drahý' ends in -ý for masculine nouns like 'obchod'. If you talk about a 'kaviareň' (cafe, feminine), it becomes 'drahá kaviareň'.
Don't say 'draho'
To say 'it is expensive', say 'je to drahé' (neuter). 'Drahý' is only for describing a specific noun like 'obchod'.

In a 'drahý obchod' in Slovakia, you cannot haggle. Prices are fixed. Haggling is only common in some flea markets.
