Dialogue
Marek: Hej, ja som Marek! Tento tábor je super, však? (Hey, I'm Marek! This camp is great, isn't it?)
Elena: Ahoj, Marek! Totálne! Nemôžem uveriť, že som naozaj tu. Mimochodom, volám sa Elena. (Hello, Marek! Totally! I can't believe I'm really here. By the way, my name is Elena.)
M: Rád ťa spoznávam, Elena! Tak čo, bola si už v takomto tábore? (Nice to meet you, Elena! So, have you ever been to a camp like this?)
E:  V tábore áno, ale nie v medzinárodnom. Je to tu iné, lepšie. (In the camp, yes, but not in the international one. It's different here, better.)
M: Aj ja som si to všimol! Je tu oveľa viac zábavných aktivít. Videla si tú obrovskú hojdačku? Je to vzrušujúce a zároveň desivé! (I noticed that too! There are many more fun activities. Did you see that huge swing? It's exciting and scary at the same time!)
E: Nie som si istá, či mám dosť odvahy to skúsiť, ale možno neskôr. Mimochodom, aká je tvoja zatiaľ najobľúbenejšia činnosť? (I'm not sure I'm brave enough to try, but maybe later. By the way, what is your favorite activity so far?)
M: Určite ten včerajší lov. Museli sme nájsť skryté stopy po celom tábore a bola to pecka! A čo ty? (Definitely the hunt yesterday. We had to find hidden clues all over the camp and it was a blast! And how about you?)
E: Hmm, naozaj sa mi páčil pracovný seminár s umením a remeslami. Vyrobili sme náramky priateľstva. Dám ti jeden, ak chceš. (Hmm, I really enjoyed the arts and crafts workshop. We made friendship bracelets. I'll give you one if you want.)
M: Wow, ďakujem, Elena! Vyzerá to úžasne. (Wow, thank you, Elena! It looks amazing.)
E: Ha ha! Teraz budeme kamarátmi navždy! (Ha ha! Now we will be friends forever!)
M: Určite! Prídeš na večerný táborák? Počul som, že budú rozprávať strašidelné príbehy. (Definitely! Will you come to the evening campfire? I hear they're going to tell scary stories.)
E: Zbožňujem strašidelné príbehy! Mali by sme sedieť pri sebe a navzájom sa vystrašiť. (I love scary stories! We should sit next to each other and scare each other.)
M: Súhlasím! Vždy je lepšie sa báť s priateľom ako sám, však? (I agree! It's always better to be scared with a friend than alone, right?)
E: Určite! Takže sa uvidíme neskôr? (Definitely! So see you later?)
M: Dohodnuté! (Agreed!)
