뜻
Cleaning kitchenware.
문화적 배경
Washing dishes by hand is still very common in Serbia, even in households with dishwashers, as many believe the machine doesn't clean as well as a human. A guest offering to wash dishes is a standard polite gesture. The host's refusal is equally standard. It's a social ritual of mutual respect. In student 'domovi' (dorms), the sink is a communal area where 'pranje sudova' becomes a social event or a source of conflict. In villages, 'sudovi' might refer to large metal cauldrons used for making ajvar or rakija, which require heavy-duty scrubbing.
Aspect Matters
Use 'prati' for the activity and 'oprati' when you want to emphasize that the job is done.
Not for Clothes
Never say 'prati sudove' for laundry. Use 'prati veš'.

The Guest Rule
If you want to impress a Serbian host, offer to wash the dishes. They will say no, but they will love you for it.
