20 phrases Slovenes use the most

What are the most often used Slovene phrases?
After some time in this country we realized that the "official" Slovene is quite far from what people say everyday, and thus you all the time hear "kr neki" and "ful dobr". So this is how we, foreigners in Slovenia, perceive what the locals say :D

"Ne me basat!" Je ponavadi kar "ne me jebat!"

[@alestursic961]

"Ne me basat" bo v primeru prvega Aprila, ko gre za namerno šalo. In "ne me jebat" bo v primeru proti moški osebi in v agresivnem nagajanju. Oboje je Ljubljanski sleng. Le pristni Ljubljančani smejo to uporabljat, kajti lahko pride do hude zamere.

This is mainly used in Ljubljana and Gorenjska (so like Kranj, Jesenice) If you would come to a Maribor, which is basicly an hour and few mins drive from Ljubljana, you would not hear thos phrases. Actually you would but they would be said in complitly different way. Anyway thumbs up for trying to learn and whatnot.

@@Robertoslaw.Iksinski U redu, brate. 🙂 Przynajmniej ty i ci nasi mają dobry pretekst aby sobie pisownię ułatwić.

Jak się domyślasz, to i w wymowie im się jebie, więc muszą odróżniać mówiąc "tvrdo č" ili "mekko ć".

Greetings from Carinthia. I have a Slowenian phrase in mind but I don't know for certain what it means nor how it's written, maybe you can help me figure it out? It sound something like "Chep pochasne". I found the word "počasen", which means "slow" in a dictionary and that chimes with what I think the phrase means, something like "slow down" or "keep calm" I guess.

Fino - finom (in Hungarian)

[@dommevida_8721]

For me as a croat slovene is somehow confusing. Because some words and phrases (f.e.: Kako si?) are exactly the same. And so are some grammatical rules. But then somes words and there declination and conjugation are totally different. I dont understand how it can be so similar and different at the same time hahah

[@SaifKhan-ib1sz]

Nice video and so cute

[@jamesebola1250]

“Hudo” means bad, or devilish, “Noro” means crazy, “Lepo” means beautiful, “Res” means truthfully, “Prov” means right, as in “You’re 100% right”, “Top” is not a Slovenian word, but a stolen English word, with the same English meaning. How are you feeling? Top, or tops… Which is how I feel watching your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@natasauzar9890]

You only enlisted the literal meanings.. "Hudo" "Noro" "Res" have all multiple meanings

[@jamesebola1250]

Right...like The Bomb, Cheesy, Dead, Hyped, Jacked, Jonesing, Lemon, Score, Wicked, Phat, etc. All made up new meanings, to keep vacuum-heads amused and guessing.

[@katjaucakar5153]

bravo ful znata dobr

These two cobanes have really done a great job!

[@blackwolves8607]

These phrases are useful in ljubljana, in other places (i live in zgornja gorenjska (rateče)) you will not hear them

[@antondzajajurca7797]

You should have also mentioned the origin of the slovene slang word. For instance.. Ne me basat. ...Sausages are being stuffed and that's the origin of the sentence. To stuff something beyond its capacity....to shove something into something else means basat. So the translation would be don't shove it to me something I don't already know or I want to know (I think- slavisti pomoč prosim :))

slovenian* slovene is wrong but its used al the time

[@natasauzar9890]

No, you are wrong! a person is slovenian but the language is slovene

[@thayrathyn]

As a Slovene Anglistics student I can tell you that you're both wrong. Both Slovene and Slovenian are correct, Slovenian being considered more informal and Slovene more formal. Slovene should also be used in politics and formal documents. Doesn't matter which one you use, but you should stick to it. Mixing Slovene and Slovenian is the biggest mistake you can do, as the word applies to BOTH nationality and the language.

[@natasauzar9890]

as a person who finished highschool and is currently attending a linguistic college (filofaks) while you are mostly correct, what i said wasnt exactly wrong either, slovene is mostly used when reffering to the language while slovenian is mostly used when talking about nationality

[@foreignersspeakslovene5659]

Hi Nyx, well, I think most people understand that this video is not meant to be serious educational content but more of a parody :) So I don't think that foreigners will try to repeat this (maybe some of them will though :) Also, as I mentioned under other comments - we were both based in Kranj at the time of shooting so it's not really Ljubljana accent, maybe just a general informal dialect a lot of people use!
