뜻
Higher education institution.
문화적 배경
Academic titles are extremely important. If someone has a degree from a 'vysoká škola', they are often addressed by their title (e.g., 'Pán inžinier' or 'Pani magisterka') in formal settings. The 'Index' was a small physical book where professors wrote grades. While most universities have moved to digital systems (AIS), the term 'index' is still used to refer to one's grade record. State universities are free for full-time students in the Slovak language. This makes 'vysoká škola' a very common path for high school graduates. The 'Vysokoškolský internát' (dormitory) is a rite of passage. Many students move to larger cities like Bratislava, Košice, or Žilina and live in these social hubs.
False Friend Alert
Never use this for a 16-year-old's school. It will sound like they are a genius university student.
Preposition Power
Always use 'na' with 'vysoká škola'. 'V' (in) is rarely used unless you are physically inside the building doing something other than studying.
