levati

1. dated formal (of liquid) to pour
   Sluškinja je levala vino u pehare. — The maid was pouring wine into the goblets.
2. dated formal (of rain) to pour down
   Kiša je levala cele noći kao iz kabla. — The rain poured down in buckets all night.

The unprefixed verb levati is practically unused in modern Serbian — it appears in older texts, while the root survives in prefixed verbs (ulivati, prelivati, slivati se). In speech use sipati or liti; of rain say kiša lije or pljušti.
