Plužna

Plužna is a Slovenian word that primarily refers to a snowplow or snow plough. It can describe both the mechanical device attached to vehicles for clearing snow from roads and other surfaces, and, less frequently, the act of using a snowplow.

The term "plužna" is derived from "plug," reflecting the plow's action of pushing or displacing material. It is commonly used in Slovenia and other regions where the Slovenian language is spoken or has historical influence.

Beyond the literal meaning of a snowplow, "plužna" may also be used figuratively to describe something that forcefully clears obstacles or makes way for progress. The context usually clarifies the intended meaning.
