معنی
Being very upset or shocked.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Slovenian sports culture, especially during the Planica ski jumping event, being 'iz sebe' is the expected state for fans. It's a rare time when public displays of extreme emotion are fully encouraged. In broader Balkan culture, emotional expression is often more intense than in Central Europe. 'Biti iz sebe' might be used more frequently and for slightly less extreme situations than in the north of Slovenia. 19th-century Slovenian poets like France Prešeren often used variations of this phrase to describe the 'sublime'—the overwhelming power of nature or unrequited love. On Slovenian social media (Instagram/TikTok), you'll see 'iz sebe' used with many emojis to describe reactions to celebrity news or viral videos.
Use 'Čisto'
Slovenians almost always add 'čisto' (cleanly/completely) to this phrase. 'Čisto sem iz sebe' sounds 10x more natural than just 'Sem iz sebe'.
Don't overdo it
If you use this for small things, people will think you are very dramatic. Save it for the big stuff!
