Red for Love, Blue for Calm—Emotions in Slovenian Words
Feelings come in all colors and in Slovenian, there are beautiful ways to talk about both! For kids learning the language, color and emotion words help them express themselves while building a strong emotional connection to Slovenian.
Feelings Kids Can Say Out Loud
- Ljubezen – Love (often shown with red hearts!)
- Veselje – Joy or happiness
- Strah – Fear (a useful word when learning how to express discomfort)
- Mir – Peace or calm (perfectly paired with the color blue)
These words let kids talk about what they feel inside—and understand others, too.
Colorful Connections
Slovenian color words are easy to match with emotions:
- Rdeča (red) for love or energy
- Modra (blue) for calm or thinking
- Rumena (yellow) for joy
- Črna (black) for fear or mystery
Pairing emotions with colors makes vocabulary easier to remember and more fun to explore!
