意思
A compact living space.
文化背景
The 'panelák' (concrete block) is the most common place to find a 'malý byt'. These were built during the communist era to provide housing for everyone. In the capital, a 'malý byt' in the Old Town is a status symbol, even if it's tiny, because of the historical value and location. Young Slovaks often live in a 'malý byt' until they get married or have children, at which point they try to move to a 'trojizbák' (3-room flat) or a house. Because many apartments are small, Slovaks are experts at using every centimeter of space, often having custom-made 'vstavané skrine' (built-in wardrobes).
