4. Act as interpreter, translate Ukrainian lines into English. Examining an Apartment

  • Here is apartment№14.

  • Щодо розміщення будинку та стану парадних сходів – тут усе в порядку.

  • Let’s see what it’s like inside the apartment.

  • Не можу повернути ключ в замку.

  • But it’s a wrong key. It’s for your mother’s house.

  • О, та невже! Ось це – мабуть той ключ.

  • I can’t see anything. Where is the light-switch?

  • Ось він, знайшла. Тьмяне світло в коридорі, варто зазначити.

  • It won’t be a problem to replace the light bulb later.

  • Звичайно, я думаю цей вузький коридор веде на кухню.

  • Oh, look, the kitchen is rather spacious and well-equipped.

  • Проте краще було б мати електричну плиту замість газової.

  • Gas is much cheaper than electricity.

  • Вікно виходить на тихий двір і є балкон.

  • So, you can keep your numerous tins and cans there, as well as dry your laundry.

  • Так, це дуже зручно.
