Hi mums,

I would like to open an english discussion about our angels user posted image .

I have 8 months old babyboy David, I come from Slovakia and since the 1st of May I moved together with my family to Ljubljana.

I will be glad to know other foreigner mums, who dont understand slovenian language well and want to share the daily life with their children in english...and of course all from Slovenia, who want to discuss also in english are welcomed user posted image

Hi Nicole,

my daughter Daša is almost 9 months old. We are all natives, so I understand Slovene quite well user posted image . I suppose you don't have many problems with understanding the basics, I know I got along quite well when I was in Bratislava. We intend to go camping to Slovakia this summer on a holiday and me and my boyfriend are just planning the route and searching the web for useful information. I know this is not what you asked for user posted image , but do you perhaps have some suggestions or useful links?

Well, I don't know what else to tell you for the first time . As you can see from the picture, my daugther is very beautiful , she is already crawling (is that the right word? ) around for some time now, she is still breastfed and she is a bit tiny for her age.

And how is your boy?

Hi Nicole

I'm also not a foreign mum, but since there are not many on this forum, I'd be glad to share my experiences in English.

I have a 22 motnh old daughter Neja. We have already survived the 9 and 10 month age of course and got over crawling and walking with my support. I must say that this was the most difficult phase...My back was killing me and the baby wouldn't get tired of walking.

Well I don't know how to paste a picture here but I have some pictures in my album.

Your Davidko is very cute

Hi!

Welcome to Slovenia user posted image

How do you say "welcome" or "hello" in your language?

will be eight months old next week. His name is Miha. He is cute little boy who doesn't want to crawl. How is David? Does he crawl? Miha is not in the mood for anything because his teeth are growing. I hope teething will soon be over.

Hi mums,

welcome teta beta, Soncek&Luna, Mammy26, N&N, nana27 and Thor in this forum user posted image .

Po slovensky:
welcome - vitaj
hello - ahoj

In Slovakia we say:
slovak language - slovensky jazyk
slovenian language - slovinsky jazyk
...and slovinsky jazyk is in your language slovensky...quite interesting.
In generally, you have a lot of words, which in slovak language have different meaning.
e.g. child - you say otrok, we say dieta and otrok in slovak language is slave

Nana, you are right, Davidko is per name of small David, do you use also such per name words in your language?

N&N if you want to put some picture directly to the forum use this pattern:
between [img] and [/img] insert the URL address of concrete picture.

David was born on 1st of October 2005, his weight is 9,3 kg, I think, he will be flegmatic, as his father user posted image , of course he has sometimes bad days, but he is very peacefull and often smiling, last week he started crawling and tried to stand up in his bed, so now it starts to be more funny....
And we also advance in eating, 3-times per day he has the milk, for dinner I prepare for him vegetable, rice or potato with some meat and for afternoon snack fruit with joghurt.
What about your babies? Maybe it depends also on regional customs...and of course it is individual depending on every baby.

I am happy, that summer is comming, we can spend o lot of time on wallking.

Today afternoon we are going to travel to Bratislava (from where we come from) because on Saturday we have voting to parlament ...aaand tomorrow my company, where I was working before maternity leave is organizing sports day...and I enjoy it.

Teta beta, you have asked me for some recommendations for your summer trip to Slovakia, I will write you next week. is it Ok?

That's great that you've opened the discussion in English-it will be the challange for me to chat and skill my knowledge. user posted image
What was the reason that you moved to Slovenia?
I have a 2 year old daughter Nika and 7 months old son Jaka.
I hope you'll find some friends here and share experiances with us. I live in the neighbourhood of Ljubljana so if you'd like we could also meet, perhaps go to the park Tivoli for a walk...I'd be glad.

Nicole, enjoy your weekend in Bratislava and perhaps a potentional shopping stop in that shopping village right on the Austrian-Slovak border. That is something I am really looking forward to user posted image . We will be leaving at the end of July, so we are still open for ideas.

P.S.
David is a real cutey!

hej nicole and other girls...
our dejan ( user posted image ) is 3 months and half old. he is the smallest in this forum, as i can note from the posts here. but i will be more then happy to read about your experience, to see what do i have to expect in the next months.
i am also a native speaker here but my husband is not. he is swedish. dejan is learning four languages at the moment. i speak with him slovenian and italian (i come from the coast and italian is my second language). my husband speaks with him in swedish. me and my husband communicate in english (he also learns slovenian). hopefully dejan will be able to speak all four languages.
have a nice weekend in bratislava user posted image .

Hi...
I have a daughter, her name is Liza and she is a little older (17 months). She is half Slovenian and half Croatian (her dad is from Croatia).
What's the reason of your moving to Slovenia? Do you like it here? Did the Slovenians exccept you well? Where do you live? ( I have so many questions user posted image .., like an enciklopedia )..
Well, if you are looking for native english speakers maybe I can help you. I have a friend, she is from Amerika and she lives in Celje now. She have a daughter also, she is 15 months old. If you are interested I can ask her to communicate with you trough the mails or something like that...
I hope you enjoyed your voting trip. I have no idea for who are you voting for, but i hope that your political party won the elections user posted image ..
Have a nice hot day (i like it when it' s hot )....
