| Róbert: Szép pár vagytok. |
| John: "You're a nice couple." |
| Anikó: Örülök, hogy boldogok vagytok! |

| POST |
| John: Listen again to Dávid's post. |
| Lena: Annával minden perc csodás. |
| John: "Every minute is wonderful with Anna." |
| Lena: (SLOW) Annával minden perc csodás. (Regular) Annával minden perc csodás. |
| John: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "with Anna." |
| Lena: Annával |
| John: Here "with" is expressed with a suffix, that's why there's no separate word for it like in English. Anna is a common name in Hungary, as well. Listen again - "with Anna" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) Annával (REGULAR) Annával |
| John: Then comes the phrase "every minute is wonderful." |
| Lena: minden perc csodás. |
| John: This phrase is a little bit over the top. Use it when you want to sound poetic, romantic, or very pathetic. Listen again - "Every minute is wonderful" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) minden perc csodás. (REGULAR) minden perc csodás. |
| John: All together, it's "Every minute is wonderful with Anna." |
| Lena: Annával minden perc csodás. |
