सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

Slovenians are very punctual. Asking 'Ali ste pripravljeni?' 5 minutes before an event starts is common and expected. In the mountains, this phrase is used as a safety check. It implies checking your gear (boots, water, map). In meetings, the oldest or most senior person is usually the one to ask this phrase to signal the start. Slovenian schools are formal; students always use 'ste' when addressing teachers, even in this simple question.
