A1 Expression 중립

Samozrejme

Of course

Used to express strong agreement.

🌍

문화적 배경

In Slovak households, 'samozrejmosť' is linked to the tradition of offering guests bread and salt (historically) or today, a drink and snacks immediately upon arrival. To not do so would be 'nesamozrejmé' (unnatural/impolite). There is a shared linguistic logic across the former Austro-Hungarian empire where 'of course' is tied to 'clarity' or 'nature' (German: Natürlich, Hungarian: Természetesen). In Slovak business, saying 'samozrejme' to a client's request is a way to build trust and show that your company is reliable and the request is standard. Younger Slovaks often use English 'Of course' or 'Sure' in text messages, but 'samozrejme' remains the dominant form for spoken agreement even in trendy circles.

🎯

The 'Že' Trick

If you want to sound like a native, always add 'že' when you follow 'samozrejme' with a verb. 'Samozrejme, že idem!'

⚠️

Sarcasm Alert

Be careful with your intonation. A flat 'samozrejme' can sound like 'duh' or 'obviously' in an annoying way.
