Joe Smith: How to use a paper towel

Prevodilac: Andrea Jovanovic Lektor: Ivana Korom

Five hundred seventy-one million

Dvestapedesetdevet miliona

two hundred thirty thousand pounds of paper towels

stopet hiljada petsto sedamdeset kilograma papirnih ubrusa

are used by Americans

koriste Amerikanci

every year.

godišnje.

If we could -- correction, wrong figure --

Ako bismo mogli - ispravka, pogrešna cifra -

13 billion used every year.

6 milijardi se upotrebi svake godine.

If we could reduce the usage of paper towels,

Ako bismo mogli redukovati upotrebu papirnih ubrusa,

one paper towel per person per day,

jedan papirni ubrus po osobi dnevno,

571,230,000 pounds of paper not used.

259,105,570 kilograma papira bismo uštedeli.

We can do that.

Mi to možemo.

Now there are all kinds of paper towel dispensers.

Postoje različite vrste papirnih ubrusa.

There's the tri-fold. People typically take two or three.

Ovo je troslojni. Ljudi uglavnom uzimaju dva ili tri.

There's the one that cuts it, that you have to tear off.

Ovo je onaj koji se kida, morate otkinuti.

People go one, two, three, four, tear.

Ljudi uzimaju jedan, dva, tri, četiri, kidaju.

This much, right?

To je ovoliko, je l'?

There's the one that cuts itself.

Ovo je onaj koji se sam kida.

People go, one, two, three, four.

Ljudi uzimaju jedan, dva, tri, četri.

Or there's the same thing, but recycled paper,

Ili ovo je isto, ali papir je recikliran,

you have to get five of those because they're not as absorbent, of course.

morate uzeti pet od ovih, jer ne upijaju kao ostali, naravno.

The fact is, you can do it all with one towel.

Činjenica je da možete sve to sa jednim ubrusom

The key, two words:

Ključ, dve reči:

This half of the room, your word is "shake."

ova polovina sale, vaša reč je "stresti."

Let's hear it. Shake. Louder.

Da čujem. Stresti. Glasnije.

Audience: Shake.

Publika: Stresti.

Joe Smith: Your word is "fold."

Džo Smit: Vaša reč je "saviti".

Audience: Fold.

Publika: Saviti.

JS: Again.

Audience: Fold. JS: Really loud.

DžS: Opet.

Publika: Saviti. DžS: Zaista glasno.

Audience: Shake. Fold.

Publika: Stresti. Saviti.

JS: OK. Wet hands.

DžS: Dobro. Nakvasiti ruke.

Shake -- one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12.

Stresti - jedan, dva, tri, četiri, pet, šest, sedam, osam, devet, 10, 11, 12.

Why 12? Twelve apostles, twelve tribes,

Zašto 12? Dvanaest apostola, dvanaest plemena,

twelve zodiac signs, twelve months. The one I like the best:

dvanaest astroloških znakova, dvanaest meseci.

It's the biggest number with one syllable.

Ovaj mi se sviđa najviše: to je najveći broj sa jednim slogom.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Tri-fold. Fold ...

Troslojni. Saviti...

Dry.

Suvo.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

Audience: Shake.

Publika: Stresti.

Fold.

Saviti.

JS: Cuts itself. Fold. The fold is important

DžS. Sam se kida. Saviti. Savijanje je bitno

because it allows interstitial suspension.

jer omogućava bolje upijanje.

You don't have to remember that part, but trust me.

Ne morate zapamtiti ovaj deo, ali verujte mi.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Audience: Shake. Fold.

Publika: Stresti. Saviti.

JS: Cuts itself.

DžS: Sam se kida.

You know the funny thing is,

Znate, smešna stvar je,

I get my hands drier than people do with three or four,

što su moje ruke suvlje nego onih koji uzimaju tri ili četri

because they can't get in between the cracks.

jer ne mogu dopreti između otvora.

If you think this isn't as good...

Ako mislite da to nije tako dobro...

Audience: Shake. Fold.

Publika: Stresti. Saviti.

JS: Now, there's now a real fancy invention,

DžS: Ovo je zaista pomodarski izum,

it's the one where you wave your hand

to je onaj gde mašete rukom

and it kicks it out.

i izvučete ga.

It's way too big a towel.

To je preveliki ubrus

Let me tell you a secret.

Dozvolite da vam otkrijem tajnu.

If you're really quick, if you're really quick --

Ako ste zaista brzi, ako ste zaista brzi -

and I can prove this --

this is half a towel from the dispenser in this building.

i mogu vam dokazati -

ovo je pola ubrusa iz dozera u ovoj zgradi.

How? As soon as it starts, you just tear it off.

Kako? Čim krene, vi ga odmah otkinete.

It's smart enough to stop.

Dovoljno je pametan da stane.

And you get half a towel.

I dobijate pola ubrusa.

Audience: Shake. Fold.

Publika: Stresti. Saviti.

JS: Now, let's all say it together. Shake. Fold.

DžS: Sad, svi zajedno. Stresti. Saviti.

You will for the rest of your life remember those words

Do kraja vaših života ćete pamtiti ove reči

every time you pick up a paper towel.

svaki put kad uzmete papirni ubrus.

And remember, one towel per person for one year --

I zapamtite, jedan ubrus po osobi godišnje -

571,230,000 pounds of paper. No small thing.

259,105,570 kilograma papira. Nije mala stvar.

And next year, toilet paper.

A sledeće godine, toalet papir.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)
