Sr: Prihvati ovaj mač!
En: Take this sword!"

Sr: " rekao je čovek i rukom mu dade plastični mač.

Sr: Pogledao je na sat.
En: He looked at his watch.

Sr: "Bojim se da kasnim," reče Milan sebi.
En: "I'm afraid I'm late," Milan said to himself.

Sr: Pozdravio se sa grupom i trčao ka kafiću u kojem su ga čekali prijatelji.
En: He said goodbye to the group and ran towards the café where his friends were waiting.

Sr: Kada je stigao, bio je pomalo zadihan.
En: When he arrived, he was slightly out of breath.

Sr: "Šta ti se desilo?
En: "What happened to you?"

Sr: " upitali su ga, pogledajući njegova rumena obraze i blistave oči.
En: they asked, noticing his rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes.

En: "You won't believe me, but I accidentally joined a medieval battle!"

En: he said through laughter.

Sr: Prijatelji se takođe nasmejaše, a Milan je seo, zadovoljan avanturom.
