rolig commented on the word malora
Slovene slang, borrowed from Italian. Literally it means "an evil hour", but would commonly be translated as "hell": Naj gre v maloro! = "May he go to hell!"
It is also used in the sense of "failure, a big mess": Če ni�? ne ukrepamo, bo gospodarstvo šlo v maloro. = "If we don't do anything, the economy will tank."
