뜻
A family with many members.
문화적 배경
The 'Slava' is the ultimate test of a 'velika porodica'. It is a multi-day event where all relatives gather to honor the family's patron saint. In Montenegro, 'velika porodica' often implies a strong 'bratstvo' (brotherhood/clan) where family loyalty is the highest social value. In this region, the 'velika porodica' was historically tied to large agricultural estates (salaši), where generations lived and worked together. In Belgrade, having a 'velika porodica' is often seen as a logistical challenge due to small apartment sizes, leading to the phrase 'puna kuća' (full house).
Case Matching
Always remember to change 'velika' to 'veliku' when saying 'I have...' (Imam veliku porodicu).
The 'Kum' Factor
When someone talks about their 'velika porodica', they might be including their godparents (kumovi).
