  -> Mislim da smo koleginica Dubravka i ja to shvatile na isti način, a na autoru pitanja je da izabere odgovor obzirom da samo on ima uvid u celokupan tekst.
agree  Dubravka Hrastovec: Prije bih rekla 'government alms', ali držim da je kolegica Mira apsolutno u pravu s odabirom riječi 'alms', jer je stil pisanja ironičan.
1 hr
  -> Da, može i 'goverment alms', možda je i bolje, hvala Dubravka
agree  Kristina Kolic: U potpunosti se slažem!
2 hrs
  -> Hvala koleginice Kristina
