IDEMO NA KAVU LET'S GO FOR A COFFEE

Dragi svi, nadam se da ste mi svi dobro. Dear everyone, I hope you are all well. Dobro došli u IrenasCroCafe. Vrijeme je za novu podcast epizodu i u ovoj epizodi vas vodim sa sobom u hrvatske kafiće, tj. It's time for a new podcast episode, and in this episode I'm taking you with me to Croatian cafes, i.e. vodim vas sa sobom na kavu! I'm taking you with me for coffee!

Transkript kao i do sada ćete naći na mom Patreon profilu. You will find the transcript as before on my Patreon profile.

Kava je centar dana za većinu Hrvatica i Hrvata. Coffee is the center of the day for most Croatian women and men. Vjerujem kao i drugdje u svijetu. I believe as elsewhere in the world. Jednom kada zakoračite u svijet kave, nema povratka. Sobald Sie in die Welt des Kaffees eintauchen, gibt es kein Zurück mehr. Once you step into the world of coffee, there's no going back.

Kao što već znate, kod kuće uglavnom pijemo tursku kavu. As you already know, we mostly drink Turkish coffee at home. Mlađe generacije danas piju i filter kavu ili talijansku kavu ili nespresso ili instant, ali turska kava je i dalje kraljica kave u hrvatskim domovima. Younger generations today also drink filter coffee or Italian coffee or Nespresso or instant, but Turkish coffee is still the queen of coffee in Croatian homes.

U ovoj epizodi više o tome kako naručiti kavu, koju kavu naručiti i kako platiti kavu, ostaviti napojnicu – da ili ne, koliko dugo sjediti i pijuckati kavu… In this episode, more about how to order coffee, which coffee to order and how to pay for coffee, leave a tip - yes or no, how long to sit and sip coffee...

Više informacija stiže uskoro. More information coming soon.

Kada razgovaram sa svojim učenicima, često me pitaju o kulturi kave u Hrvatskoj. When I talk to my students, they often ask me about the coffee culture in Croatia. Razlog zbog kojeg je kultura kave, recimo, toliko posebna, je količina vremena koju provodimo u ispijanju jedne male šalice kave. Der Grund, warum die Kaffeekultur so besonders ist, liegt zum Beispiel in der Zeit, die wir damit verbringen, eine kleine Tasse Kaffee zu trinken. The reason coffee culture is so special, let's say, is the amount of time we spend drinking one small cup of coffee.

Pa krenimo od početka, dogovorili ste s prijateljem ili prijateljicom za kavu i kreće prvi problem, prvo pitanje… a to je, gdje ćemo ići na kavu. Fangen wir also von vorne an, Sie haben sich mit einem Freund auf einen Kaffee verabredet und das erste Problem, die erste Frage beginnt ... und zwar: Wo gehen wir Kaffee trinken? So let's start from the beginning, you have arranged with a friend for coffee and the first problem, the first question begins... and that is, where will we go for coffee.

Ponekad ćete se odmah dogovoriti za mjesto. Sometimes you will agree on a place immediately. Kao na primjer, kada sam u Splitu, prijateljima ću odmah reći 'vidimo se u Žbirca'. For example, when I'm in Split, I'll immediately tell my friends 'see you in Žbirac'. S jednom rečenicom sam riješila sve. I solved everything with one sentence. Znamo gdje se nalazimo i znamo što ćemo raditi. We know where we are and we know what we are going to do. Žbirac je kafić na Bačvicama i omiljeno piće je pogodite…kava! Žbirac is a cafe in Bačvice and its favorite drink is, guess what...coffee!

Ali, stvari nisu uvijek jednostavne. But things are not always simple. Nekada ljudi žele ići negdje gdje se puši, netko drugi želi ići negdje gdje se ne puši, treća osoba želi sjesti na terasu, četvrtoj osobi se ne sviđa kava u tom kafiću, ili možda osoblje nije najsrdačnije. Sometimes people want to go somewhere smoking, someone else wants to go somewhere non-smoking, a third person wants to sit on the terrace, a fourth person doesn't like the coffee in that cafe, or maybe the staff isn't the most friendly. Netko ne želi ići na najpopularnija mjesta i želi se više držati kvartovskih kafića. Someone does not want to go to the most popular places and wants to stick to neighborhood cafes.

Vjerujte mi dogovaranje gdje će se popiti kave nije niti malo jednostavan korak. Trust me, arranging where to drink coffee is not an easy step at all.

Kada ste napokon odlučili gdje ćete ići na kavu, treba i odlučiti koju kavu ćete piti. Najpopularnija kava među Hrvatima je kava s mlijekom. The most popular coffee among Croats is coffee with milk. Dobit ćete jednu dozu espressa i malo toplog ili hladnog mlijeka na vrh, ovisi kakvo mlijeko više volite. You will get one shot of espresso and some warm or cold milk on top, it depends on what kind of milk you prefer.

Zaista, kada se preselite u novu zemlju, jedna od prvih stvari koju trebate naučiti je kako naručiti kavu. Indeed, when you move to a new country, one of the first things you need to learn is how to order coffee. Hrvatska je drugačija od Irske, i kave koje se ovdje piju su drugačije od onih u Hrvatskoj. Croatia is different from Ireland, and the coffees drunk here are different from those in Croatia. Ako volite kavu, znat ćete o čemu govorim. If you love coffee, you'll know what I'm talking about. Skužiti kako naručiti kavu u novoj zemlji je izazov za sebe. Figuring out how to order coffee in a new country is a challenge in itself.

Idemo pogledati prvo neke korisne riječi koje možete koristiti za naručivanje. Let's look first at some useful words you can use to order. Ne trebate nikakve duge rečenice. You don't need any long sentences. Kratko i slatko je sasvim dovoljno. Short and sweet is enough.

Prva riječ koji svi trebaju naučiti u hrvatskom je apsolutno 'može' o ova riječ je zapravo jedina riječ koju trebate kada želite naručiti bilo što u kafiću ili u restoranu. The first word that everyone needs to learn in Croatian is absolutely 'moje' and this word is actually the only word you need when you want to order anything in a cafe or restaurant. Na primjer, ja pijem uglavnom kavu s toplim i kada konobar ili konobaricu priđu stolu i pitaju me što želim naručiti, reći ću samo 'Može jedna kava s toplim.' For example, I mostly drink hot coffee and when the waiter or waitress comes to the table and asks me what I want to order, I'll just say 'One hot coffee is fine.' Evo i duža verzija ako želite zvučati još ljubaznije…'Može molim te jedna kava s toplim.' Here's a longer version if you want to sound even kinder...'Can I have a hot coffee, please.' A ako želite osobu osloviti s 'vi', onda možete reći 'Može molim vas jedna kava s toplim.'. And if you want to address the person as 'you', then you can say 'I can have a hot coffee, please.' Ali, samo 'može' je sasvim dovoljno. But, just 'can' is quite enough. Ako vam to zvuči pregrubo jer u engleskom bi uglavnom rekli 'please', onda zašto ne, ubacite i jedno 'molim te' ili 'molim vas'. If that sounds too harsh to you because in English you would mostly say 'please', then why not add a 'please' or 'please'.

Dakle, sada znate kako naručiti kavu. So now you know how to order coffee. Drugo što trebate znati je koju kavu želite, više ili manje mlijeka, toplo ili hladno mlijeko, ako pijete macchiato. Another thing you need to know is which coffee you want, more or less milk, warm or cold milk, if you are drinking a macchiato.

Najbolji način je naravno isprobavati različite kave i vidjeti koja vam najviše paše. The best way is of course to try different coffees and see which one suits you best.

Hrvatske kave uglavnom imaju samo jednu dozu espressa, ne dvije, osim ako to ne zatražite. Croatian coffees usually only have one shot of espresso, not two, unless you ask for it.

Sad kad ste uspješno naručili kavicu, sjednite i opustite se, uzmite novine ili ako ste u dobrom društvu, uživajte u razgovoru…i nikako, apsolutno nikako nemojte ostati sjediti manje od 40ak minuta. Nachdem Sie nun erfolgreich einen Kaffee bestellt haben, setzen Sie sich entspannt hin, nehmen Sie eine Zeitung oder genießen Sie, wenn Sie in guter Gesellschaft sind, das Gespräch ... und bleiben Sie auf keinen Fall länger als 40 Minuten sitzen. Now that you have successfully ordered a coffee, sit down and relax, take a newspaper or if you are in good company, enjoy the conversation... and absolutely, absolutely do not stay seated for less than 40 minutes. Naravno, to kažem ako želite piti kavu (kao) na hrvatski način. Natürlich sage ich das, wenn Sie Kaffee auf die kroatische Art trinken möchten. Of course, I say that if you want to drink coffee (like) the Croatian way.

A što se tiče plaćanja, napojnicu možete ili ne morate ostaviti. Und was die Bezahlung betrifft, können Sie ein Trinkgeld geben oder auch nicht. And as for payment, you may or may not leave a tip. U Hrvatskoj volimo uglavnom zaokružiti. In Croatia, we mostly like to circle. S eurima je to malo teže, ali recimo, ako kava košta 1.80€, ostavit ćemo 2€ (eura). It's a little more difficult with euros, but let's say, if the coffee costs €1.80, we will leave €2 (euros).

Ja sam već popila jednu kavu i sada je vrijeme za još jednu. I've already had one coffee and now it's time for another one. Ja pijem kavu iz caffetiere, kada pijem kavu kod kuće i pijem je dugo i lagano. I drink coffee from the coffee machine, when I drink coffee at home I drink it long and easy. I sada je vrijeme za moju drugu kavicu. And now it's time for my second coffee.

Šaljem vam sada veliki pozdrav i čujemo se uskoro! I am sending you a big greeting and see you soon! Ciao, ciao.
