D: Ja som, ale Tono ešte ostal s kamarátmi. ( I am, but Tony is still [stayed] with friends.)
M: Ale veď už je skoro osem hodín. (But it is almost eight o’clock.)
D: Povedal, že nebude dlho. (He said that he won’t be long.)
M: Čo má zase na pláne? (What is his plan again?)
 D: Neviem, nepovedal mi. (I don’t know, he didn’t tell me.)
M: Dúfam, že príde domov skôr ako otec. (I hope that he will come home sooner than father.
D: A kde je otec? (And where is father?)
M: Išiel na pivo. Čo ste dnes robili? (He went for a beer. What did you do today?)
D: Išli sme k jazeru. Najprv sme trochu plávali v zátoke a potom sme sa chceli člnkovať, ale všetky člny boli požičané. Tak som išla hrať volejbal a Tono išiel surfovať. (We went to the lake. First we swam a little bit in the bay and then we wanted to go boating but all of the boats were taken. (Lit.borrowed). So I went to play volleyball and Tony went surfing.)
