Danas pričamo o nostalgiji. To je onaj osećaj kada nam nešto nedostaje iz prošlosti. Razgovaramo o tome zašto često mislimo da je pre sve bilo bolje i lepše. Jelena se seća svog detinjstva u Srbiji i kaže da je tada bila srećna jer su je roditelji čuvali od problema. Nevena najviše misli na period kada je studirala na fakultetu. Zaključile smo da nam ne nedostaje samo Srbija kao mesto. Nedostaju nam ljudi, prijatelji i vreme kada nismo imale mnogo briga. 

Nevena (00:00)

Zdravo svima, ja sam Nevena.

Jelena (00:02)

I dobro došli u novu epizodu Unlock Your Serbian sa Jelenom i Nevenom. 

And welcome to a new episode of Unlock Your Serbian with Jelena and Nevena. 

Jelena (00:08)

Tako je, dobro došli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta i mi danas razgovaramo o nostalgiji. Šta je nostalgija za nas? Da li je to period, da li su to ljudi ili da li je to mesto gde živimo?  

That's right, welcome to another episode of our podcast and today we are talking about nostalgia. What is nostalgia for us? Is it a period, is it people, or is it the place where we live? 

Nevena (00:24)

Kada govorimo o nostalgiji, mi ne govorimo samo o životu u Srbiji ili o hrani iz Srbije, mi generalno govorimo o periodu života. 

When we talk about nostalgia, we are not just talking about life in Serbia or about food from Serbia, we are generally talking about a period of life. 

I govorimo o tome da li je ranije sve bilo bolje i da li mi razmišljamo o prošlosti, dakle da li razmišljamo o periodu... 5, 10, 15 godina, kao da je taj period bio mnogo bolji nego što je bio, dakle da li mislimo da je bilo bolje. Jelena, kada govarimo o nostalgiji, koji period ili šta je za tebe nostalgično? O čemu razmišljaš sa nostalgijom?  

And we talk about whether everything was better before and whether we think about the past, so whether we think about the period... 5, 10, 15 years, as if that period was much better than it was, so whether we think it was better. Jelena, when we talk about nostalgia, which period or what is nostalgic for you? What do you think about with nostalgia?
