DIALOGUE

Hana: Ahoj! Dnes idem prvýkrát do fitnes centra tu na Slovensku. Môžeš mi poradiť? (Hi! Today is my first time going to a fitness center here in Slovakia. Can you give me some advice?)
Tomáš: Ahoj! Neboj sa, všetko ti to tam vysvetlia. (Hi! Don't worry, they'll explain everything to you there.)
Hana: Ale ja neviem, ako to funguje. Musím sa zapísať alebo kúpiť lístok? (But I don't know how it works. Do I have to sign up or buy a ticket?)
Tomáš: Na recepcii ťa zapíšu a dajú ti kľúč alebo náramok. (They'll sign you up at the reception and give you a chip or a wristband.)
Hana: Potrebujem si niečo zobrať so sebou? (Do I need to bring anything with me?)
Tomáš: Uterák, fľašu s vodou, športové oblečenie a obuv. Bola si už niekedy vo fitku? (A towel, a bottle of water, sports clothes and shoes. Have you ever been to a gym?)
Hana: Nie, nikdy. A neviem, ako používať tie stroje. (No, never. And I don't know how to use the machines.)
Tomáš: Personál ti rád pomôže. A môžeš sa opýtať aj trénera. (The staff will be happy to help you. And you can also ask the trainer.) Hana: Ach, som z toho všetkého trochu nervózna. (Oh, I'm a little nervous about all this.)
Tomáš: Neboj sa, bude to v pohode. Tréneri sú milí a hovoria aj po anglicky. (Don't worry, it will be fine. The trainers are nice, and they speak English.)
Hana: Super! Dúfam, že zvládnem prvý tréning. (Great! I hope I can handle my first workout.)
Tomáš: Určite áno! A po cvičení pôjdeme na proteínový nápoj. Čo ty na to? (Definitely! And after the workout we'll go for a protein drink. What do you think?) Hana: Super! Ďakujem.
