Starý dom

Old house

意思

A building that is not new

🌍

文化背景

In villages, an 'old house' often features a 'gánok'—a covered external corridor. These are highly prized in modern renovations. In cities like Bratislava, 'starý dom' can refer to pre-war 'staromestské' apartments with high ceilings and thick walls. Old houses are often central to folk tales, sometimes believed to be protected by a 'domovik' (house spirit). The term 'pôvodný stav' (original state) is a common euphemism for a 'starý dom' that needs a total overhaul.

💡

Adjective Agreement

Always check the gender of the noun. Since 'dom' is masculine, 'starý' is the correct form.

⚠️

Czech Influence

Avoid saying 'dům' (Czech); the Slovak word is 'dom'.
