ponestati

1. (to someone + gen.) to run out
   Ponestalo nam je mleka, idem do prodavnice. — We've run out of milk, I'm going to the shop.
   Na pola puta mu je ponestalo benzina. — Halfway there he ran out of petrol.

Usually impersonal: the person is in the dative, the thing in the genitive, the verb neuter: ponestalo mi je vremena 'I ran out of time'.
