  Elio e Francesca intrant in sa butega de Giampaolo e Gianni in Bia Sardegna. Elio and Francesca enter the Giampaolo and Gianni store in Via Sardegna.
E Mí ita bella fruta chi tenit signor Gianni. Parit frisca frisca. Look at the beautiful fruit that Mr. Gianni has. It seems very fresh.
F Diaderus! Castia sceti sa fráula! Ita fruta bolis comporai? You are right! Just look at the strawberries! What fruit do you want to buy?
E Faeus a sa moda de Amos: dus arrogus de dogna cosa, frutta pitica, ananás, pisu de opinu e, po cundiri, un’arrusciada de suciu de arangiu e limoni. Let’s make it Amos’ way: two pieces of everything, small fruit, pineapple and pine nuts and, to season, a lot (a rinsed of) orange and lemon juice at will.
F Est a nai? That is to say?
  Duas melas, duas piras, duas bananas, duus kiwi e una perra de ananás, una farrancada de pisu de opinu e 250 gramus de pruna, de axina e piricocu. Two apples, two pears, two bananas, two kiwis and half a pineapple, a small packet of pine nuts and 250 grams of plums, grapes and apricots.
F E sa fráula? And strawberries?
E Si cumprendit, sa fráula puru. Emu a lassai a foras su meloni e sa síndria: su meloni ca est tropu saboriu, e sa síndria ca fait acuaciu. Faeus totu a tancheddus, c’amesturaus quatru cullieras de tzúcuru… Of course, also strawberries. I would avoid (leave out) the melon and the watermelon: the melon because it is too strong (it is too tasty) and the watermelon because it is too watery. We cut (do) everything in small pieces, we mix four tablespoons of sugar …
F Uhm… bobboi… Um … miam …
  … e ci poneus totu in frigoriferu po mes’ora. A s’acabu, aciungeus su suciu de cuatru arangius e de tres limonis e dda donaus a papai cun d’unu gelau de crema. O signor Gianni… … and we put everything in the fridge for half an hour. At the end, we add the juice of four oranges and three lemons and serve with a cream ice cream. Mr. Gianni…
G Oh, Elio. Cosa, ti serbiat? Hi Elio, did you need anything?
E Eja. Bolemu fai una bella macedonia. Si serbint duas melas, duas piras, duas bananas, una farrancada de pisu de opinu, cuatru arangius, tres limonis… Yes. I wanted to prepare (make) a nice fruit salad. We need two apples, two pears, two bananas, a handful of pine nuts, 4 oranges, 3 lemons …
