Praviti grešku

praviti grešku

To make a mistake

Doing something incorrectly.

🌍

문화적 배경

There is a famous proverb: 'Ko radi, taj i greši' (He who works, also makes mistakes). It is used to comfort someone who is upset about a mistake. In Balkan coffee culture, 'praviti grešku' is often discussed in the context of past loves and 'what if' scenarios. Teachers in Serbia often emphasize 'uči na svojim greškama' (learn from your mistakes) to encourage students. In a professional setting, admitting a mistake quickly is generally more respected than trying to hide it, though 'saving face' still exists.

💡

Use 'Napravio sam'

If you want to say 'I made a mistake' about something that just happened, use 'Napravio sam grešku'.

⚠️

Avoid 'Raditi'

Never say 'Radim grešku'. It sounds very unnatural to native speakers.
