Mrs Taylor has got a new fur coat.
Is it as nice as yours?
It's even nicer than mine. Don't you think I must have a new one, too?.
No, I don't think so. You see, your fur coat is still very nice. It's
just a bit older than Mrs Taylor's.
The Taylors have also got a new fridge. It's much bigger and better
than ours.
Maybe. But I'm sure it was dearer, too. Ours is perhaps a bit
smaller and less modern, but it still works all right. I don't think
we need a new one.
Have you seen their new curtains? They're very pretty, much
prettier than ours. We must have new ones, too, sooner or later.
I never notice curtains. Are ours really as bad as you say?
They're even worse! I'm sure they're the oldest and ugliest in the
neighbourhood.
Curtains are not important anyway.

No, George, I don't agree. Our car is still all right. It's just a bit older,
smaller, and less modern than theirs. And cars are not important anyway!

Milo za drago

G. i g-đa Smith doručkuju.

Razgovaraju o svojim susjedima
   Taylor-ovima.
G- đa Taylor ima novi krzneni
   kaput.
Da Ii je lijep kao tvoj?
Još je ljepši od moga.

Zar ti se ne čini da bi i ja
   morala imati novi?
Ne, ne mislim.
Pa, vidiš da je tvoj krzneni
   kaput još uvijek vrlo lijep.
Sarno je malo stariji od (kaputa)
   g-đe Taylor.
Taylor-ovi imaju i novi hladnjak.

Mnogo je veći i bolji od našeg.

Možda. Ali, siguran sam da je bio
   i mnogo skuplji.
Naš je možda nešto
   manji i manje moderan,
   ali još uvijek odlično radi.

Mislim da nam novi
   još nije potreban.
Jesi Ii vidio
   njihove nove zavjese?
Vrlo su lijepe,
   mnogo ljepše od naših.
I mi moramo svakako uskoro
   nabaviti nove.
Nikad ne obraćam pozornost na zavjese.
Jesu Ii naše stvarno tako loše
   kao što kažeš?
Još su gore!
Sigurna sam da su najstarije i
   najružnije u susjedstvu.

Zavjese i tako nisu važne.

Možda si u pravu.
Uostalom, jesi Ii vidio novi
   automobil g. Taylor-a?
Što? Novi auto?
Zar nije prije samo šest mjeseci
   kupio novi?
Da, aIi ovo je najnoviji model.

Sigurna sam da je najbolji
   u susjedstvu.

Možda je i najveći.
Sigurno je najnoviji.
Mislim da ćemo i mi morati
   kupiti novi automobil.
Zar ne misliš, draga?
Ne, ne mislim, George.
Naš auto je još uvijek dobar.
Sarno malo je stariji,
   manji i manje moderan od
   njihovog.
A automobili i tako nisu važni!
