意思
Stating your age.
文化背景
The 'Abraham' celebration at age 50 is the most significant birthday. It often involves humorous pranks and a large gathering of family and friends. Asking age is common among children and young adults but becomes more sensitive as people get older, especially in urban professional settings. The 18th birthday (polnoletnost) is a legal milestone allowing one to vote, drive, and buy alcohol, often celebrated with a 'coming of age' party. In rural areas, being 'star' is often associated with the 'upokojenec' (pensioner) status, which carries a specific social identity of having contributed to the community.
Gender Agreement
Don't forget to change 'star' to 'stara' if you are female. It's a very common mistake for beginners!
The Number 2
Remember the dual! It's 'dve leti', not 'dve let'. This is a unique feature of Slovenian.
