意思
Cooking the midday meal.
文化背景
Sunday lunch is the most important meal of the week. It usually starts with a 'domaća supa' (homemade soup) and ends with coffee and cake. If you are invited, never arrive empty-handed. Serbians believe you must eat something 'na kašiku' (with a spoon) at least once a day for health. This usually happens during 'ručak', often involving stews like pasulj or paprikaš. During a 'Slava' (patron saint day), 'spremati ručak' becomes a multi-day project involving dozens of dishes. It is a point of pride for the host to have an abundance of food. In the past, the working day in Serbia ended at 2 PM or 3 PM, allowing people to go home and 'spremati ručak'. Even today, many businesses have a long lunch break for this reason.
Use 'Spremati' for the process
If you are currently in the kitchen, always use 'spremam'. Use 'spremila sam' only when the food is on the table.
The power of 'Domaće'
If you tell a Serbian person you 'spremili' the lunch yourself, they will be much more impressed than if you bought it.

Don't say 'praviti' for everything
While 'praviti' is okay, 'spremati' sounds more natural and 'homely' for a full meal.
