Heavy rain

Significado

Intense rainfall

🌍

Contexto cultural

Rain is often welcomed by the older generation because of 'houbaření' (mushroom picking). A 'hustý déšť' is seen as a precursor to a good harvest. The phrase 'hustý' is very popular in youth slang to mean 'cool' or 'awesome', which can lead to funny misunderstandings for learners. Heavy rain in summer is often associated with 'Svatá Anna' (St. Anne's Day, July 26th), marking the end of the hottest summer days. In the era of climate change, 'hustý déšť' is increasingly used in the context of 'bleskové povodně' (flash floods).
