· v restavracijifrom 'a table for two' to 'the bill, please'
A restaurant runs on set phrases. Arriving: miza za dva (a table for two). Deciding: jedilni list (the menu), Kaj priporočate? (what do you recommend?). Course names: predjed (starter), glavna jed (main), sladica (dessert). Eating: Dober tek! (enjoy your meal!). Leaving: Račun, prosim. (the bill, please). Notice how prosim politely caps almost every request.
