뜻
Having a female sibling.
문화적 배경
Sisters often share a very close bond and it is common for adult sisters to go for 'kava' (coffee) weekly. In the broader Balkan context, 'sestra' can sometimes be used as a term of endearment for a very close female friend. In farming communities, having a sister meant having an extra pair of hands for the 'trgatev' (grape harvest). In cities like Ljubljana, the term 'sestra' is often associated with the famous drag group 'Sestre' who are icons of the local pop culture.
The 'O' Rule
Always remember that 'imeti' turns 'a' into 'o' for feminine family members.
Dual Alert
If you have two sisters, don't say 'dve sestro'. Say 'dve sestri'!
