| POST |
| John: Listen again to Dávid's post. |
| Lena: Unatkozom és senki nem ér rá. |
| John: "I'm bored and no one is available." |
| Lena: (SLOW) Unatkozom és senki nem ér rá. (Regular) Unatkozom és senki nem ér rá. |
| John: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "I'm bored." |
| Lena: Unatkozom |
| John: This verb is in first person singular, but you won't find the word that expresses "I." That's because it's indicated with a suffix that refers to the first person singular. Listen again - "I'm bored" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) Unatkozom (REGULAR) Unatkozom |
| John: Then comes the phrase "and no one is available." |
| Lena: és senki nem ér rá. |
| John: You can use this phrase when explaining or complaining that no one is available. But be careful, the first word means "and," that's why it’s attached to another relevant sentence. Listen again - "and no one is available" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) és senki nem ér rá. (REGULAR) és senki nem ér rá. |
| John: All together, it's "I'm bored and no one is available." |
| Lena: Unatkozom és senki nem ér rá. |
