意思
A formal way to say goodbye.
文化背景
It is considered rude to leave a small shop or a doctor's waiting room without saying 'Dovidenia' to the staff or the people present. In business meetings, 'Dovidenia' is often accompanied by a firm handshake and direct eye contact. Students always say 'Dovidenia' to teachers, even in universities. Using 'Ahoj' would be a major sign of disrespect. In villages, you might say 'Dovidenia' even to people you don't know if you pass them on the street and they look like they are expecting a greeting.
The 'Pekný deň' Combo
Always pair 'Dovidenia' with 'Pekný deň' (Nice day) to sound like a native speaker.
Don't be too 'Ahoj'
When in doubt, use 'Dovidenia'. It's better to be too formal than too rude.
