意思
Being too sensitive to rain or cold.
文化背景
Czechs have a very high tolerance for rain during outdoor activities. Canceling a hike due to rain is often seen as a sign of weakness. The phrase is identical in Slovak ('byť z cukru') and carries the same cultural weight regarding mountain resilience. The 'Sugar' metaphor is a remnant of the Austro-Hungarian era where sugar was a luxury item, making the metaphor of 'dissolving wealth' quite potent. Younger generations use it more ironically now, often to mock their own desire for comfort.

Adding 'Vždyť se nerozpustíš' (You won't dissolve anyway) makes the idiom even more authentic.
