22
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.840
Sun set through the clouds while Ivan and other students
23
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:53.439
arrived at the orphanage playground. Vjetar je lagano lepjaršao lišćem,
24
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.939
koje je stvaralo šaren tepih na tlu. Ivana je stajala
25
00:01:57.980 --> 00:02:02.739
po strani, gledajući djecu kako trče prema ljuljačkama i vrtujcima.
26
00:02:04.109 --> 00:02:05.950
Srce joj je ubrzano kucalo.
27
00:02:07.390 --> 00:02:12.169
Mate je već bio tamo, okružen prijateljima, priča o neku novu,
28
00:02:12.590 --> 00:02:19.349
uzbudljivu priču. Njegove priče su bile legendarne, pune mašte i smijeha.
29
00:02:20.770 --> 00:02:24.789
Ivana liked to listen to him, she admired his ability
30
00:02:24.870 --> 00:02:28.830
to attract the attention of everyone. But today she wanted
31
00:02:28.889 --> 00:02:31.789
something more, she wanted to be part of that group.
32
00:02:31.810 --> 00:02:35.150
You can do that, she thought to Ivana, holding a
33
00:02:35.150 --> 00:02:37.610
notebook in her hand where she wrote down her story.
34
00:02:37.629 --> 00:02:38.849
You just need courage.
35
00:02:38.889 --> 00:02:42.580
While everyone took a seat on the decks under the
36
00:02:42.620 --> 00:02:52.280
big tree, Matej has finished his story about the magic dragon.
37
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:55.560
Everyone was laughing.
38
00:02:56.939 --> 00:03:00.360
Ivana is deeply breathed in, walking towards the group. Matej,
39
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.139
can I share something? And she asked quietly, but loud
40
00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:07.620
enough that everyone heard her.
41
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.360
Matej's face is red. Of course, Ivana.
42
00:03:10.379 --> 00:03:21.879
Come, we all love stories. Ivana sat down, feeling her
43
00:03:21.909 --> 00:03:26.280
face blush. She opened the notebook and began to read
44
00:03:26.300 --> 00:03:28.659
in her clear, but shy voice. The story was about
45
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:33.580
a girl who discovers a magical garden where plants tell
46
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:35.680
secrets about the world. As she read, her friends looked
47
00:03:35.699 --> 00:03:40.900
at her, carefully listening to every word. When she finished reading,
48
00:03:48.569 --> 00:03:54.409
Nastala je tišina. Ivana je spustila pogled, bojči se reakcije.
49
00:03:55.710 --> 00:03:59.770
To je bilo divno, Ivana, i uzviknuo je Matej, a
50
00:03:59.909 --> 00:04:06.830
ostali su mu se pridružili pljeskom. Imaš pravi talent. Ivana
51
00:04:06.870 --> 00:04:12.830
se nasmješila, srce joj je bilo puno radosti. Osjećala se prihvaćenom,
52
00:04:13.289 --> 00:04:18.839
dijelom nečega, što je prije bilo nedostižno. Matejo je pružio ruku,
53
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.930
a ona je sa zahvalnošću prihvatila. Dok su zajedno s
54
00:04:24.009 --> 00:04:28.069
ostalima nastavljali druženje i smijali se, Ivana je shvatila da
55
00:04:28.089 --> 00:04:32.430
ima svoj glas i da je on vrijedan. Nije trebala
56
00:04:32.490 --> 00:04:38.220
biti netko drugi da bi bila prihvaćena. Igralište pod jesenskim
57
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:42.660
drvečem više nije samo miesto. Postalo je početak njezine nove
58
00:04:42.699 --> 00:04:44.199
priče među prijateljima.
59
00:04:45.259 --> 00:04:48.269
Let's take another listen. Listen closely to any parts you
60
00:04:48.310 --> 00:04:48.949
may have missed.
61
00:04:49.709 --> 00:04:52.870
The sun was shining through the clouds as Ivana and
62
00:04:52.889 --> 00:04:55.569
the other students arrived at the orphanage playground. The wind
63
00:04:55.610 --> 00:04:56.949
gently rustled the leaves.
64
00:05:15.110 --> 00:05:17.009
Creating a colorful carpet on the ground.
65
00:05:18.170 --> 00:05:21.569
Ivana stood to the side, watching the children run towards
66
00:05:21.610 --> 00:05:22.509
the swings and merry-go-rounds.
67
00:05:22.569 --> 00:05:25.370
Her heart was pounding. Matej je već bio tamo, okružen prijateljima.
68
00:05:45.220 --> 00:05:52.819
Matej was already there, surrounded by friends, telling some new
69
00:05:52.879 --> 00:06:05.370
exciting story. His stories were legendary, full of imagination and laughter.
70
00:06:06.569 --> 00:06:12.029
Ivana ga je voljela slušati, divila se njegovoj sposobnosti da
71
00:06:12.069 --> 00:06:13.829
privuče pažnju svih.
72
00:06:15.779 --> 00:06:19.300
Ivana loved listening to him, admiring his ability to capture
73
00:06:19.420 --> 00:06:20.300
everyone's attention.
74
00:06:21.540 --> 00:06:25.209
But today, she wanted something more. She wanted to be
75
00:06:25.310 --> 00:06:26.930
part of that group. You can do.
76
00:06:28.610 --> 00:06:28.670
It.
77
00:06:45.089 --> 00:06:47.709
Ivana thought, clutching the notebook in her hand where she
78
00:06:47.740 --> 00:06:55.139
had written her story. You just need courage.
79
00:06:56.500 --> 00:07:00.220
As everyone took their places on the blankets under the
80
00:07:00.259 --> 00:07:05.199
big oak tree, Matej finished his story about a magical dragon.
81
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:20.699
Everyone was rolling with laughter.
82
00:07:21.899 --> 00:07:25.800
Ivana took a deep breath, stepping towards the group. Matej,
83
00:07:25.819 --> 00:07:29.060
can I share something too?
84
00:07:45.180 --> 00:07:47.660
She asked quietly, but loud enough for everyone to hear.
85
00:07:48.930 --> 00:07:58.250
Matej's face lit up. Of course, Ivana. Come, we all
86
00:07:58.269 --> 00:07:58.970
love stories.
87
00:08:14.170 --> 00:08:16.529
Ivana sat down, feeling her cheeks flush.
88
00:08:17.649 --> 00:08:20.269
She opened her notebook and began to read in her clear,
89
00:08:20.290 --> 00:08:23.029
yet shy voice. The story was about a girl who
90
00:08:23.069 --> 00:08:25.269
discovers a magical garden where plants tell secrets about.
91
00:08:26.930 --> 00:08:27.269
The world.
92
00:08:44.149 --> 00:08:46.090
Where the plants speak secrets of the world.
93
00:08:47.450 --> 00:08:51.500
As she read, her friends stared at her, listening intently
94
00:08:51.539 --> 00:08:54.340
to every word. When she finished, there was silence. Ivana
95
00:08:54.419 --> 00:09:14.830
je spustila pogled. Bojči se reakcije.
96
00:09:16.610 --> 00:09:19.090
Ivana lowered her gaze, fearing their reaction.
97
00:09:20.129 --> 00:09:25.409
To je bilo divno, Ivana, i uzvikno je Matej, a
98
00:09:25.590 --> 00:09:28.350
ostali su mu se pridružili pljeskom.
99
00:09:30.070 --> 00:09:34.000
That was wonderful, Ivana, exclaimed Matej, and the others joined.
100
00:09:33.769 --> 00:09:37.299
In with applause. Imaš pravi talent.
101
00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:40.639
You have real talent.
102
00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:44.940
Ivana smiled, her heart full of joy. She felt accepted.
103
00:09:58.850 --> 00:10:01.769
She felt accepted, part of something that had once seemed
104
00:10:01.850 --> 00:10:02.110
out of.
105
00:10:02.110 --> 00:10:10.269
Reach Matejo je pružio ruku, a one je sa zahvalnošću prihvatila.
106
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:14.000
Matej extended his hand and she gratefully took it.
107
00:10:15.179 --> 00:10:19.700
Dok su zajedno s ostalima nastavljali druženje i smijali se
108
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.690
Ivana je shvatila da ima svoj glas i da je
109
00:10:23.850 --> 00:10:24.669
on vrijedan.
110
00:10:26.470 --> 00:10:30.049
As they continued to socialize and laugh together, Ivana realized
111
00:10:30.090 --> 00:10:32.429
she had her own voice, and it was valuable.
112
00:10:33.649 --> 00:10:38.309
Nije trebala biti netko drugi da bi bila prihvaćena.
113
00:10:40.090 --> 00:10:42.149
She didn't need to be someone else to be accepted.
114
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:47.799
Igralište pod jesenskim drvečem više nije samo miesto.
115
00:10:54.789 --> 00:10:57.389
The playground under the autumn trees was no longer just
116
00:10:57.429 --> 00:11:00.090
a place. It had become the beginning of her new
117
00:11:00.169 --> 00:11:01.210
story among friends.
118
00:11:07.649 --> 00:11:11.779
Today's vocabulary words are coming up right after this commercial break.
119
00:11:12.820 --> 00:11:16.740

22
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.840
Sun set through the clouds while Ivan and other students
23
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:53.439
arrived at the orphanage playground. Vjetar je lagano lepjaršao lišćem,
24
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.939
koje je stvaralo šaren tepih na tlu. Ivana je stajala
25
00:01:57.980 --> 00:02:02.739
po strani, gledajući djecu kako trče prema ljuljačkama i vrtujcima.
26
00:02:04.109 --> 00:02:05.950
Srce joj je ubrzano kucalo.
27
00:02:07.390 --> 00:02:12.169
Mate je već bio tamo, okružen prijateljima, priča o neku novu,
28
00:02:12.590 --> 00:02:19.349
uzbudljivu priču. Njegove priče su bile legendarne, pune mašte i smijeha.
29
00:02:20.770 --> 00:02:24.789
Ivana liked to listen to him, she admired his ability
30
00:02:24.870 --> 00:02:28.830
to attract the attention of everyone. But today she wanted
31
00:02:28.889 --> 00:02:31.789
something more, she wanted to be part of that group.
32
00:02:31.810 --> 00:02:35.150
You can do that, she thought to Ivana, holding a
33
00:02:35.150 --> 00:02:37.610
notebook in her hand where she wrote down her story.
34
00:02:37.629 --> 00:02:38.849
You just need courage.
35
00:02:38.889 --> 00:02:42.580
While everyone took a seat on the decks under the
36
00:02:42.620 --> 00:02:52.280
big tree, Matej has finished his story about the magic dragon.
37
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:55.560
Everyone was laughing.
38
00:02:56.939 --> 00:03:00.360
Ivana is deeply breathed in, walking towards the group. Matej,
39
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.139
can I share something? And she asked quietly, but loud
40
00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:07.620
enough that everyone heard her.
41
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.360
Matej's face is red. Of course, Ivana.
42
00:03:10.379 --> 00:03:21.879
Come, we all love stories. Ivana sat down, feeling her
43
00:03:21.909 --> 00:03:26.280
face blush. She opened the notebook and began to read
44
00:03:26.300 --> 00:03:28.659
in her clear, but shy voice. The story was about
45
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:33.580
a girl who discovers a magical garden where plants tell
46
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:35.680
secrets about the world. As she read, her friends looked
47
00:03:35.699 --> 00:03:40.900
at her, carefully listening to every word. When she finished reading,
48
00:03:48.569 --> 00:03:54.409
Nastala je tišina. Ivana je spustila pogled, bojči se reakcije.
49
00:03:55.710 --> 00:03:59.770
To je bilo divno, Ivana, i uzviknuo je Matej, a
50
00:03:59.909 --> 00:04:06.830
ostali su mu se pridružili pljeskom. Imaš pravi talent. Ivana
51
00:04:06.870 --> 00:04:12.830
se nasmješila, srce joj je bilo puno radosti. Osjećala se prihvaćenom,
52
00:04:13.289 --> 00:04:18.839
dijelom nečega, što je prije bilo nedostižno. Matejo je pružio ruku,
53
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.930
a ona je sa zahvalnošću prihvatila. Dok su zajedno s
54
00:04:24.009 --> 00:04:28.069
ostalima nastavljali druženje i smijali se, Ivana je shvatila da
55
00:04:28.089 --> 00:04:32.430
ima svoj glas i da je on vrijedan. Nije trebala
56
00:04:32.490 --> 00:04:38.220
biti netko drugi da bi bila prihvaćena. Igralište pod jesenskim
57
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:42.660
drvečem više nije samo miesto. Postalo je početak njezine nove
58
00:04:42.699 --> 00:04:44.199
priče među prijateljima.
59
00:04:45.259 --> 00:04:48.269
Let's take another listen. Listen closely to any parts you
60
00:04:48.310 --> 00:04:48.949
may have missed.
61
00:04:49.709 --> 00:04:52.870
The sun was shining through the clouds as Ivana and
62
00:04:52.889 --> 00:04:55.569
the other students arrived at the orphanage playground. The wind
63
00:04:55.610 --> 00:04:56.949
gently rustled the leaves.
64
00:05:15.110 --> 00:05:17.009
Creating a colorful carpet on the ground.
65
00:05:18.170 --> 00:05:21.569
Ivana stood to the side, watching the children run towards
66
00:05:21.610 --> 00:05:22.509
the swings and merry-go-rounds.
67
00:05:22.569 --> 00:05:25.370
Her heart was pounding. Matej je već bio tamo, okružen prijateljima.
68
00:05:45.220 --> 00:05:52.819
Matej was already there, surrounded by friends, telling some new
69
00:05:52.879 --> 00:06:05.370
exciting story. His stories were legendary, full of imagination and laughter.
70
00:06:06.569 --> 00:06:12.029
Ivana ga je voljela slušati, divila se njegovoj sposobnosti da
71
00:06:12.069 --> 00:06:13.829
privuče pažnju svih.
72
00:06:15.779 --> 00:06:19.300
Ivana loved listening to him, admiring his ability to capture
73
00:06:19.420 --> 00:06:20.300
everyone's attention.
74
00:06:21.540 --> 00:06:25.209
But today, she wanted something more. She wanted to be
75
00:06:25.310 --> 00:06:26.930
part of that group. You can do.
76
00:06:28.610 --> 00:06:28.670
It.
77
00:06:45.089 --> 00:06:47.709
Ivana thought, clutching the notebook in her hand where she
78
00:06:47.740 --> 00:06:55.139
had written her story. You just need courage.
79
00:06:56.500 --> 00:07:00.220
As everyone took their places on the blankets under the
80
00:07:00.259 --> 00:07:05.199
big oak tree, Matej finished his story about a magical dragon.
81
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:20.699
Everyone was rolling with laughter.
82
00:07:21.899 --> 00:07:25.800
Ivana took a deep breath, stepping towards the group. Matej,
83
00:07:25.819 --> 00:07:29.060
can I share something too?
84
00:07:45.180 --> 00:07:47.660
She asked quietly, but loud enough for everyone to hear.
85
00:07:48.930 --> 00:07:58.250
Matej's face lit up. Of course, Ivana. Come, we all
86
00:07:58.269 --> 00:07:58.970
love stories.
87
00:08:14.170 --> 00:08:16.529
Ivana sat down, feeling her cheeks flush.
88
00:08:17.649 --> 00:08:20.269
She opened her notebook and began to read in her clear,
89
00:08:20.290 --> 00:08:23.029
yet shy voice. The story was about a girl who
90
00:08:23.069 --> 00:08:25.269
discovers a magical garden where plants tell secrets about.
91
00:08:26.930 --> 00:08:27.269
The world.
92
00:08:44.149 --> 00:08:46.090
Where the plants speak secrets of the world.
93
00:08:47.450 --> 00:08:51.500
As she read, her friends stared at her, listening intently
94
00:08:51.539 --> 00:08:54.340
to every word. When she finished, there was silence. Ivana
95
00:08:54.419 --> 00:09:14.830
je spustila pogled. Bojči se reakcije.
96
00:09:16.610 --> 00:09:19.090
Ivana lowered her gaze, fearing their reaction.
97
00:09:20.129 --> 00:09:25.409
To je bilo divno, Ivana, i uzvikno je Matej, a
98
00:09:25.590 --> 00:09:28.350
ostali su mu se pridružili pljeskom.
99
00:09:30.070 --> 00:09:34.000
That was wonderful, Ivana, exclaimed Matej, and the others joined.
100
00:09:33.769 --> 00:09:37.299
In with applause. Imaš pravi talent.
101
00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:40.639
You have real talent.
102
00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:44.940
Ivana smiled, her heart full of joy. She felt accepted.
103
00:09:58.850 --> 00:10:01.769
She felt accepted, part of something that had once seemed
104
00:10:01.850 --> 00:10:02.110
out of.
105
00:10:02.110 --> 00:10:10.269
Reach Matejo je pružio ruku, a one je sa zahvalnošću prihvatila.
106
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:14.000
Matej extended his hand and she gratefully took it.
107
00:10:15.179 --> 00:10:19.700
Dok su zajedno s ostalima nastavljali druženje i smijali se
108
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.690
Ivana je shvatila da ima svoj glas i da je
109
00:10:23.850 --> 00:10:24.669
on vrijedan.
110
00:10:26.470 --> 00:10:30.049
As they continued to socialize and laugh together, Ivana realized
111
00:10:30.090 --> 00:10:32.429
she had her own voice, and it was valuable.
112
00:10:33.649 --> 00:10:38.309
Nije trebala biti netko drugi da bi bila prihvaćena.
113
00:10:40.090 --> 00:10:42.149
She didn't need to be someone else to be accepted.
114
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:47.799
Igralište pod jesenskim drvečem više nije samo miesto.
115
00:10:54.789 --> 00:10:57.389
The playground under the autumn trees was no longer just
116
00:10:57.429 --> 00:11:00.090
a place. It had become the beginning of her new
117
00:11:00.169 --> 00:11:01.210
story among friends.
118
00:11:07.649 --> 00:11:11.779
Today's vocabulary words are coming up right after this commercial break.
119
00:11:12.820 --> 00:11:16.740
Here are today's vocabulary words, first in Croatian, then in English.
120
00:11:23.230 --> 00:11:25.250
Sialo. Shining.

Courage.

Dekama. Dekama. Dekama. Blankets. Završio. Završio. Završio.
138
00:13:21.779 --> 00:13:22.120

Flushed.

00:13:52.299 --> 00:13:52.539
Shy.
143
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:54.679
Secrets. Stared.

00:13:54.730 --> 00:14:22.370
Intently. Tišina.

Silence. Talent.

00:14:23.850 --> 00:14:24.590
Pleskom. Applause.
147
00:14:24.610 --> 00:14:26.409
Radosti.
148
00:14:26.450 --> 00:14:26.610
Joy.
149
00:14:27.769 --> 00:14:28.110
Prihvaćena.
150
00:14:52.360 --> 00:15:03.629
Prihvačena. Accepted. Nedostižno.
