Today Dave learned that SMRDIŠ means YOU SMELL, although we're not quite sure he got the true meaning of that one. He also learned that IGRIŠČE is a PLAYGROUND, NEČAKINJA is NIECE and... well, maybe it's better if he doesn't know what 'cepec' really means! Ignorance is bliss sometimes!
Little did Dave know by then that “kopališče” and “pokopališče” are two very different things. A KOPALIŠČE is a SWIMMING POOL, but a POKOPALIŠČE is the CEMETERY, the place where we bury our dead. So, remember, if you're with someone, and YOU LOVE EACH OTHER – SE IMATE RADI, always choose to go to the kopališče, and never to the pokopališče. Peace be with you ;)
So, that’s the way our young couple ended their conversation about them becoming vegetarians. Anyway, Dave learned some new Slovenian words: ŽIVALI – ANIMALS, ZDRAVJE – HEALTH, ZELENJAVA – VEGETABLES, SADJE – FRUIT, OREŠČKI – NUTS, OREHI – WALNUTS, ARAŠIDI – PEANUTS and INDIJSKI OREŠČKI – CASHEWS.
Today Dave learned some more new words: PALAČINKE - PANCAKES, RECEPT - RECIPE, MOKA - FLOUR, POSNETO MLEKO - SKIM MILK, SOL - SALT, POPER - PEPPER, VILICA - FORK and NOŽ - KNIFE. Dober tek – bon appetit … if you also made your Boxty :)

Dave’s first visit to the Zoo in Ljubljana was a lot of fun and he learned some new words… ŽIVALSKI VRT - ZOO, MIŠ or MIŠKA - MOUSE, NAČRT - PLAN, OPICA - MONKEY, KRAVA – COW, TJULENJ – SEAL, LEV - LION, DOLGI VRAT - LONG NECK, BITI PODOBEN – TO RESEMBLE/LOOK LIKE, SVIZEC - MARMOT, SLON - ELEPHANT, PAPIGA - PARROT, LAČEN - HUNGRY and Dave is often ŽEJEN – THIRSTY :)

He learned some new words today… DANES - TODAY, CRKNJEN or MRTEV - DEAD, POZABITI – TO FORGET, ROJSTNI DAN - BIRTHDAY, VABILO - INVITATION, DARILO - A GIFT, MOŽ - HUSBAND, ROŽE - FLOWERS, SLADKO - SWEET, PAMETNO – SMART, VESEL - HAPPY and PLES – DANCE :)
Well, it does happen. You can get lost, and in this case Dave and Fani did definitely GET LOST, or in Slovene, STA SE IZGUBILA. And so Dave didn’t find the house he was looking for, but he did find out that DESNO is RIGHT and LEVO is LEFT. That a CROSSROAD is a KRIŽIŠČE, that a ROUNDABOUT is a KROŽIŠČE, that when you make a TURN you ZAVIJEŠ, that an EXIT is an IZHOD, and that when you PASS something, like a hotel, you go MIMO hotela...
Today, Dave found out that JUICE is SOK, PIE is PITA and he learnt a very important lesson... Kaki (Persimmon) is a fruit. It doesn't smell too bad and it tastes SLASTNO - DELICIOUS!
Off goes Dave to CUT THE GRASS – KOSITI TRAVO, while Fani starts preparing a big tasty LUNCH, an obilno KOSILO, for her dear Dave. Who knows, it might turn out to be a LEP DAN – A NICE DAY after all.
ANG A young Slovene girl called Fani spent a year in the Emerald Isle working as an au-pair. After falling in love with good-humoured Irish bartender Dave, Fani lures him back to Maribor. But how can he possibly survive without knowing any Slovene? Trying to master »survival Slovene« turns out to be an incredible challenge for the highly motivated Dave, and occasionally a real nightmare for his beloved Fani. A Daily dose of Slovene language for foreigners wanting to improve their everyday Slovene, and have a laugh while doing it. Premieres every weekday at 7:30 am, rebroadcasts at 3:45 pm … only on Radio Si. ******************************************************* SLO Mlada slovenka Fani je leto dni preživela na zelenem Irskem kot varuška otrok. Tam se zaljubi v hudomušnega barmana Davea in ga zvabi, da se z njo vrne/preseli v Maribor. A le kako v Sloveniji preživeti brez znanja slovenščine? Spoznavanje »preživetvene slovenščine« je za izjemno motiviranega Irca neverjeten izziv, za njegovo Fani pa občasno prava nočna mora. Dnevna doza slovenskega jezika za vse tujce, ki bi se želeli vsak dan naučiti nekaj novih slovenskih besed za vsakdanjik in se ob tem še nasmejati. Vsak delavnik premiera ob 7:30, ponovitev ob 15:45 … samo na Radiu Si.

A romantic evening taught Dave some new words… CRICKET is ČRIČEK, STAR is ZVEZDA, MOON is LUNA, MILK is MLEKO, PIE is PITA and CHERRY is ČEŠNJA.
Today Dave learned that GORICE are HILLS, GORČICA is MUSTARD, and GOR is UP, and that they are all very different things.
Dave finally managed to get a TICKET – VOZOVNICA to Ptuj. He could have bought a SINGLE TICKET – ENOSMERNA VOZOVNICA, but decided to get a RETURN - POVRATNA instead. He didn't have to wait long on the PLATFORM – PERON... and the TRAIN - VLAK didn't have to wait on the TRACK - TIR, for him, either.
Today Mia taught Dave the days of the week – PONEDELJEK, TOREK, SREDA, ČETRTEK, PETEK, SOBOTA... and the day that most people relax and do nothing – NEDELJA. Except for Mia maybe, she practises the PIANO - KLAVIR.
