Significado
A dog that needs a bath.
Contexto cultural
Slovenians are very active and love hiking with their dogs. An 'umazan pes' is a common sight on mountain trails. In the capital, there are many 'pasji parki' (dog parks). Owners often carry towels to clean their 'umazan pes' before getting into the car. In villages, dogs are often kept outdoors, so being 'umazan' is considered more natural and less of an issue than in the city. Slovenians usually take off their shoes at home. A 'dirty dog' is expected to have its paws cleaned at the door.
Agreement is key
Always check the gender of the dog. If it's a female dog, use 'umazana'.
Not an insult
Don't use this to call a person 'dirty' in a moral sense; it's too literal.
