Žalosten otrok

Sad child

An unhappy young person.

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'sad child' is a staple of Slovenian folk songs, often reflecting the hardships of historical rural life. Ivan Cankar, the most famous Slovenian writer, used the image of a sad, hungry child to criticize the indifference of the wealthy. There is a growing movement in Slovenia focusing on 'sočutna vzgoja' (empathetic parenting), where a child's sadness is validated rather than suppressed. Slovenian cinema often features 'žalostni otroci' in post-war or social drama contexts to highlight vulnerability.

Yes, but you would say 'žalosten moški' or 'žalostna ženska'. 'Otrok' specifically means child.

It is grammatically masculine, even if the child is a girl, though 'deklica' is preferred for girls.

Use the dual: 'dva žalostna otroka'.

'Žalosten' is a feeling of sadness; 'nesrečen' can mean 'unhappy' or 'unlucky'.

It is neutral and can be used in any setting.

No, that means 'the child is sadness'. You must use the adjective 'žalosten'.

Use the superlative: 'najbolj žalosten otrok'.

No, for animals we use 'mladič'.

Because Slovenian uses cases, and 'otrok' is a living being (animate).

Rarely, but it usually just means sad. 'Pomilovanja vreden' is 'pathetic'.
