"Saki tuji, ki k nam va naše selo duojde, se s nami nerad luči. Mi sem od naših diedov a babov dobro pogostinje irbali, oni su nas to naučili, da su va naših stanov a hižov vrata sakomu široko otprte bile"
(from Josef Lawitschka, Lipo Naše Selo, 2005, p.60)
O. Ružička
(Translation in English) Anyone, who visited our village, was reluctant to leave us. We inherited hospitality from our grandmas and grandpas, they taught us to keep the door of our house open to anybody.
