Dialogue:
Mama: Tak tu sú zošity, perá, ceruzky, guma, pravítko a pastelky. Vilko, aký bol tvoj prvý deň v škole? (So here are the notebooks, pens, pencils, eraser, ruler and crayons. Vilko, how was your first day at school?)
Vilko: Bolo to úžasné, mami! Hrali sme hry a stretol som nového priateľa menom Leo, plným menom Leonard. (It was wonderful, mom! We played games and I met a new friend named Leo, full name Leonard.)
Mama: To je skvelé! čo ste ešte robili? (That's great! what else have you been doing?)
Vilko: Vyfarbili sme obrázok rakety a pani učiteľka nám prečítala príbeh o medveďovi, ktorý chodí do školy. Bolo to vtipné! (We colored a picture of a rocket and the teacher read us a story about a bear that goes to school. It was funny!)
Mama: Zdá sa, že si sa bavil. (Looks like you had fun.)
Vilko: Áno, veľmi! Ale nevedel som, kde je jedáleň. (Yes, very much! But I didn't know where the dining room was.)
Mama: Tak si sa mal niekoho opýtať. (So you should have asked someone.)
Vilko: Opýtal som sa pani učiteľky a tá mi vysvetlila, že nás tam všetkých odvedie ona, keď bude čas obeda. (I asked the teacher and she explained that she would take us all there when it‘s lunchtime.)
Mama: To je ešte lepšie. Som taká rada, že si mal dobrý deň. (That's even better. I'm so glad you had a good day.)
Vilko: Aj ja. Ale ráno som bol veľmi nervózny. Nevedel som, či sa mi tam bude páčiť. (Me too. But in the morning I was very nervous. I didn't know if I would like it there.)
Mama: A páčilo sa ti tam? (And did you like it there?)
Vilko: Áno, veľmi. (Yes, very much.)
