Story Transcript:

Ca: Martí era un jove entusiasta que anava a Barcelona per la primera vegada.

Ca: Va veure la catedral de la ciutat de lluny i no podia esperar a arribar allà.
En: He saw the city's cathedral from afar and couldn't wait to get there.

Ca: Va caminar per les estretes i antigues carreteres del Barri Gòtic i es va sorprendre amb els edificis històrics i la varietat de les botigues que oferien les especialitats de la ciutat.

Ca: Va pensar en la "coca de recapte", un plat típic de la regió.

Ca: Va intentar repetir el nom diverses vegades per assegurar-se que el diria bé al restaurant.
En: He tried repeating the name several times to make sure he would say it right in the restaurant.

Ca: Va arribar a un petit lloc de la zona turística on van tenir "coca de recapte".
En: He arrived at a small place in the tourist area where they had "coca de recapte".

Ca: Va ingressar al local i va fer la seva comanda.
En: He entered the premises and placed his order.

Ca: "Una coca de recapte, si us plau", va dir Martí amb una mica de dificultat en la pronunciació.
En: "A collection cake, please," said Martí with a little difficulty in pronunciation.

Ca: El cambrer li va fer una cara estranya i va preguntar si volia una cuca de cavala.
En: The waiter gave him a strange face and asked if he wanted a mackerel worm.

Ca: Martí es va sentir confós i va repetir la seva comanda.
En: Martí felt confused and repeated his order.

Ca: El cambrer va intentar comprendre, però no va ser fàcil per la seva pronunciació.
En: The waiter tried to understand, but it was not easy because of his pronunciation.

Ca: Martí va decidir intentar una altra vegada.
En: Martí decided to try again.

Ca: Va pensar en un truc per dir el nom de l'aliment correctament.
En: He thought of a trick to say the name of the food correctly.

Ca: Va demanar recomanacions i va fer servir el nom d'altres plats com "pa amb tomàquet" per ajudar a pronunciar bé les paraules.
En: He asked for recommendations and used the name of other dishes like "tomato bread" to help get the words right.

Ca: Va intentar de nou.
En: He tried again.

Ca: "Una coca de recapte, per favor", va dir Martí, aquesta vegada amb més confiança.
En: "A collection cake, please," said Martí, this time with more confidence.

Ca: El cambrer va entendre la sol·licitud sense confusió i immediatament va anotar la comanda.

Ca: Va trobar la coca deliciosa i va acabar la seva satisfacció amb un cafè.

En: Martí realized that working on the pronunciation of the names of foods from other countries is an opportunity to learn and experiment with the culture of the place he was visiting.

Ca: Martí va sortir del restaurant amb un somriure i un estómac ple.
