Story Transcript:

Sl: Mateja je hodila skozi vrata Prirodoslovnega muzeja v Ljubljani.
En: Mateja walked through the doors of the Prirodoslovni muzej in Ljubljana.

Sl: Zunaj je bil hladen zimski dan.
En: Outside, it was a cold winter day.

Sl: V muzeju pa je bilo toplo in prijetno.
En: Inside the museum, though, it was warm and pleasant.

Sl: Ljudje so se sprehajali po hodnikih, okušali razstave in uživali v praznovanju Prešernovega dne.
En: People wandered down the hallways, exploring the exhibits and enjoying the celebration of Prešernov dan.

Sl: Mateja je ljubila zgodovino.
En: Mateja loved history.

Sl: Muzej je bil njen prostor miru.
En: The museum was her place of peace.

Sl: Dolge hodnike muzejske razstave so krasile zgodbe o preteklosti.
En: The long corridors of the museum's exhibits were adorned with stories of the past.

Sl: Vsaka dvorana je bila kot časovni stroj.
En: Each hall was like a time machine.

Sl: Mateja je začutila navdih, občudovala je minerale in okostja iz davnih časov.
En: Mateja felt inspired, admiring the minerals and skeletons from bygone eras.

Sl: Toda nenadoma jo je zmotil znan občutek.
En: But suddenly, a familiar feeling disturbed her.

Sl: Začelo jo je srbeti v grlu in kmalu zatem je začela kašljati.
En: Her throat started to itch, and soon after, she began to cough.

Sl: Vedela je, kaj to pomeni — alergija.
En: She knew what this meant—an allergy.

Sl: Mateja je poskušala globoko dihati, a njeno grlo se je vse bolj stiskalo.
En: Mateja tried to take deep breaths, but her throat tightened more and more.

Sl: Mislila je, da bo morala zapustiti muzej, a se je nerada vdala.
En: She thought she might have to leave the museum, though she was reluctant to give in.

Sl: V istem trenutku je zagledala Zorana, kuratorja muzeja.
En: At that moment, she saw Zoran, the museum curator.

Sl: Izgledal je zaposlen, a prijazen.
En: He looked busy, but friendly.

Sl: Zoran se je ustavil, ko je opazil njen nelagodje.
En: Zoran stopped when he noticed her discomfort.

Sl: "Se lahko pomaga?
En: "Can I help you?"

Sl: " je vprašal z nasmehom.
En: he asked with a smile.

Sl: Mateja mu je povedala, da ima alergijo in, da se ne počuti najbolje.
En: Mateja told him she had an allergy and wasn't feeling well.

Sl: "Oh, to je nadležno," je sočutno rekel Zoran.
En: "Oh, that's bothersome," Zoran replied sympathetically.

Sl: "Pridi z mano.
En: "Come with me."

Sl: "Peljal jo je skozi stranska vrata v manjšo sobico, stran od prahu in truma ljudi.
En: He led her through a side door into a smaller room, away from the dust and crowds of people.

Sl: "Tu boš lahko malo počivala," je rekel.
En: "You can rest here for a bit," he said.

Sl: "Če želiš, ti lahko povem kaj več o razstavah.
En: "If you'd like, I can tell you more about the exhibits."

Sl: " Mateja se mu je zahvalila in se obotavljala v sobi.
En: Mateja thanked him and hesitated in the room.

Sl: Medtem ko je Mateja počivala, ji je Zoran govoril o zgodovini muzejskih eksponatov.
En: While Mateja rested, Zoran talked to her about the history of the museum's exhibits.

Sl: Njegove zgodbe so bile polne navdiha.
En: His stories were full of inspiration.

Sl: Mateja mu je prisluhnila z zanimanjem.
