English term or phrase: Styrofoam cups
JEL TO VRSTA KAFE? JEL PREVODIVO?

The very first morning Allie was in London she walked me to work, we walked across Hyde Park and we stopped at this little Italian café because she wanted to get a coffee and I was trying to explain to her that the coffee experience was going to be different from what she’d just come from and you know she came walking out with two Styrofoam cups stacked on top of one another, which she had to talk the people into going into the back room to get a Styrofoam cup because she wanted to take it away and it was just a disaster.

Serbo-Croat translation:èaša od stiropola
Explanation:
To je èaša od stiropola koja služi za vruæe napitke, poput kafe, èaja, i sl. (mogu se kupiti svugdje na zapadu). Taèn prevod je èaša od stiropola, a ne šolja jer ima oblik isti kao i plastiène èaše za jednokratnu upotrebu, koje se kod nas, kao što znate, ne nazivaju šoljama ili šoljicama.
