Sl: Matej je stal pred izložbo lokalne trgovine z opremo za zunanje aktivnosti.

Sl: Triglavski narodni park, ki ga je imel Matej tako zelo rad, je bil te dni poln rdeče in oranžne barve.
En: Triglavski narodni park, which Matej loved so dearly, was these days full of red and orange colors.
Sl: Matej si je želel raziskati ta čudežni svet pozimi, zato je potreboval dobro opremo.

Sl: Odšel je do oddelka z zimskimi jaknami.
En: He went to the winter jacket section.
Sl: Prva jakna, ki jo je potegnil iz vrste, je bila draga in znane znamke.
En: The first jacket he pulled from the rack was expensive and a well-known brand.

Sl: Prijazno se mu je nasmehnila.
En: She smiled at him kindly.
Sl: Vitalno je vprašala: "Lahko kako pomagam?
