| POST |
| John: Listen again to Anna's post. |
| Lena: Végre itthon! Nagyon elfáradtam. |
| John: "Finally, I'm home! I'm very tired." |
| Lena: (SLOW) Végre itthon! Nagyon elfáradtam. (Regular) Végre itthon! Nagyon elfáradtam. |
| John: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "Finally, I'm home!" |
| Lena: Végre itthon! |
| John: Use this expression when you want to express that you couldn't wait to get home from somewhere. Listen again - "Finally, I'm home!" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) Végre itthon! (REGULAR) Végre itthon! |
| John: Then comes the phrase "I'm very tired." |
| Lena: Nagyon elfáradtam. |
| John: The first word means "very" and can be used to exaggerate conditions, such as in this example. The second word is a verb in the past tense without the personal pronoun, since it's indicated by the suffix. Listen again - "I'm very tired" is... |
| Lena: (SLOW) Nagyon elfáradtam. (REGULAR) Nagyon elfáradtam. |
| John: All together, it's "Finally, I'm home! I'm very tired." |
| Lena: Végre itthon! Nagyon elfáradtam. |
