The New Year


Jake: "Hallo Christian. Hoe heb jij oudejaarsavond gevierd?"

Jake: Hi Christian. How did you celebrate New Year's Eve?
Christian: "We zijn naar de bergen geweest in Oostenrijk om te skiën."

Christian: We went to the mountains in Austria to ski.
Jake: "Hadden ze daar ook vuurwerk?"

Jake: Were there any fireworks?
Christian: "Nee, het was maar een klein dorpje."

Christian: No, it was just a small village.
Jake: "Nog goede voornemens voor het nieuwe jaar?"

Jake: Any New Year's resolutions?
Christian: "Ja, ik wil minder geld uitgeven en wat slanker worden. En jij?"

Christian: Yes. I want to spend less money and lose some weight. And you?
Jake: "Nee, voor dit jaar niet."

Jake: No, not this year.
Christian: "Het komt toch nooit uit."

Christian: They don't work out anyway.
Jake: "Precies."

Jake: Exactly.
