意思
Clear, cloudless weather.
文化背景
During the summer solstice festival 'Jāņi', having 'zilas debesis' is the ultimate hope so that the bonfires can burn bright and people can see the sun rise. The 'Blue Sky' is a common motif in Baltic amber jewelry, where the clear stone is often held up to the sky to check its purity. In folk songs, the sky is often personified. The 'Sky Mountain' (Debesu kalns) is where the sun resides. Rooftop bars in Riga are often named or themed around the 'Blue Sky' to attract people during the short summer season.
The Plural Rule
Always remember 'debesis' is plural. If you use it in the singular, you'll sound like a 17th-century priest.
