Zelo je vroče

It is very hot

Describing uncomfortably high temperatures.

🌍

문화적 배경

Slovenians are very sensitive to 'vročinski valovi' (heatwaves). When it's 'zelo vroče', the country slows down, and people prefer to meet for coffee early in the morning or late in the evening. In the coastal towns like Piran, 'zelo vroče' is a way of life in summer. Locals often close their heavy wooden shutters (polkna) during the day to keep the heat out. In the mountains, 'zelo vroče' is less common. If a local says it, they likely mean anything above 25°C, as they are used to cooler climates. In many older Slovenian offices without AC, 'zelo vroče' is a valid reason to start work earlier (e.g., at 6 or 7 AM) to finish before the peak heat.

Don't tell a waiter the soup is 'vroča' if you mean it's spicy. They will just wait for it to cool down!
