意思
A polite way to ask for water.
文化背景
Tap water (voda z vodovodu) is generally safe and high quality, but in restaurants, you usually have to pay for bottled mineral water. It is common for hosts to offer 'sirupová voda' (water with fruit syrup) to guests, especially children. When ordering water, the waiter will almost always ask if you want it 'perlivá' (sparkling), 'jemne perlivá' (gently sparkling), or 'neperlivá' (still). Slovaks often drink mineral water for health benefits, with different springs offering different mineral profiles.
The 'U' Rule
Remember that most feminine things you order (voda, káva, pizza) will end in 'u' when you use 'Prosím si'.

If you want free tap water, specifically ask for 'vodu z vodovodu'. It's becoming more common in cities.
