意思
Demanding physical or mental labor.
文化背景
The concept of 'dřina' (hard toil) is often romanticized in Czech literature and film as a sign of honest character. There is a strong tradition of 'DIY' (do it yourself) in Czechia, meaning many people perform 'těžká práce' on their weekend cottages (chaty). In Czech offices, admitting something is 'těžká práce' is not seen as a weakness, but as a realistic assessment of a project's scope. During the industrial revolution, the Czech lands were the 'workshop' of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, cementing the phrase in the national vocabulary.
