   A 알아요. 그런데 할머니, 밤에는 앞이 잘 안 보인다고 하셨잖아요.

   Arayo. Geureonde halmeoni, bameneun api jal an boindago hasyeotjanayo.

   I know. But Grandma, you told me yourself you can't see well at night.

   Line 9

    B 그거야... 밤에는 불빛이 번져서 좀 그렇지.

    A 그럼 이렇게 해요. 밤에는 운전 안 하시고, 택시비는 저희가 매달 보내 드릴게요.

    Geureom ireoke haeyo. Bameneun unjeon an hasigo, taeksibineun jeohuiga maedal bonae deurilgeyo.

    Then let's do this. No driving at night, and we'll send you taxi money every month.

    B 택시비까지 준다고? 너희들이 무슨 돈이 있어서.

    You'll even give me taxi money? Where would you kids get the money?

    Line 12
13. 13

    A 엄마랑 아빠랑 저랑 나눠서 내기로 했어요. 할머니가 다치시는 것보다 훨씬 나아요.

    Eommarang apparang jeorang nanwoseo naegiro haesseoyo. Halmeoniga dachisineun geotboda hwolssin naayo.

    Mom, Dad and I agreed to split it. It's much better than you getting hurt.

    Line 13

    B 듣고 보니 밤 운전은 무섭긴 해. 그래, 밤에는 안 할게. 대신 낮에 장 보러 가는 건 내가 운전한다.

    Deutgo boni bam unjeoneun museopgin hae. Geurae, bameneun an halge. Daesin naje jang boreo ganeun geon naega unjeonhanda.

    Now that you put it that way, night driving is a bit scary. All right, no driving at night. But I'm still driving myself to the market in the daytime.
