Dobrý človek

Good person

意思

Someone with a kind nature.

🌍

文化背景

In Slovak folklore, the 'dobrý človek' is often a humble wanderer or a youngest son who succeeds not through strength, but through kindness to animals and elders. There is a shared cultural value of 'civil courage' (občianska statočnosť) where being a 'good person' involves standing up against injustice. Historically, a 'dobrý človek' was someone who adhered to 'susedská pomoc' (neighborly help), a vital survival mechanism in mountainous regions. On Slovak social media, 'dobrí ľudia' is often used in crowdfunding campaigns (e.g., 'Dobrí ľudia sa poskladali na liečbu').

💡

The Gender Neutrality

Even though 'človek' is masculine, you can use 'dobrý človek' to describe a woman. It sounds very natural and focuses on her humanity.
