  1. A

    Дима, неси мясо, угли готовы. Гости ведь уже ждут.

    Dima, bring the meat, the coals are ready. The guests are waiting, after all.

  2. B

    Несу. Пап, смотри, дядя Коля с огромной коробкой идёт.

    Coming. Dad, look, Uncle Kolya is coming with a huge box.

  3. C

    С юбилеем, Витя! Вот тебе новый мангал, в два раза больше старого.

    Happy sixtieth, Vitya! Here's a new grill for you, twice the size of your old one.

  4. A

    Спасибо, Коля! Только на моём старом шашлык и так вкуснейший.

    Thanks, Kolya! But on my old one the shashlik is delicious as it is.

  5. C

    Это тебе кажется. Как только пожаришь на моём, свой сразу выбросишь.

    You just think so. As soon as you grill on mine, you'll throw yours out right away.

  6. B

    Дядя Коль, давайте так: жарим на двух, а гости пусть решат.

    Uncle Kolya, let's do this: we grill on both, and the guests can decide.
