意味
Fresh, tender bread.
文化的背景
Bread is considered sacred. Placing a loaf upside down is said to bring bad luck or 'hunger' to the house. The 'Bread and Salt' (Sālsmaize) tradition involves welcoming guests or new homeowners with a loaf of bread and a small pile of salt. Rye bread (rupjmaize) is the national pride, but 'mīksta baltmaize' is the treat for Sunday mornings. Latvians often check bread freshness by gently squeezing the loaf through the plastic packaging.

Case endings
