Questions & Answers about Predahnućemo posle spusta.

What does predahnućemo mean exactly?

Predahnućemo means we will take a short rest, we’ll catch our breath, or we’ll pause for a moment.

It comes from the verb predahnuti, which usually suggests a brief rest, not a long period of relaxing. So the sentence has a slightly practical feel: we’ll rest a bit after something tiring.

Why is predahnućemo written as one word?

This is a normal way to form the Serbian future tense.

The full verb is predahnuti and the future auxiliary for we is ćemo. When this auxiliary comes after the infinitive, it often attaches to the verb:

You can also express the same idea as:

• Mi ćemo predahnuti.

That is also correct. The meaning is the same.
