zdŕžati to hold out, to endure

ne morem več zdŕžati I cannot endure it (ali pogovorno I can't stand it) any longer
zdŕžati napad to withstand an attack
zdŕžati napor to keep up (ali to sustain) an effort
tega napada ni mogoče zdŕžati this attack cannot be repulsed

zgodíti se to happen (komu to someone), to occur, to come to pass, to come about, to chance; to take place; to befall

naj se zgodi, kar hoče! happen what may!, no matter what happens!
prav se mu je zgodilo! it served him right!
kar se je zgodilo, se je zgodilo what's done is done!
da se (ti) to več ne zgodi! don't let that happen again!
zgôdi se Tvoja volja! religija Thy will be done!
in nič se ni zgodilo and nothing happened
kdaj se je to zgodilo? when did it take place?
takó se je to zgodilo this is how it came about
zgodila se mu je nesreča he has had an accident, he has met with an accident
nesreča se nikoli ne zgodi sama misfortunes never come singly
