I carry on a conversation
- Next weekend, foreigners are coming to my town.
- I'll be forced to have a conversation with them in English.
- It's better to prepare myself before their arrival.
- I would like to avoid misunderstandings that's why I'm going to prepare some set expression.
- Let's conceive how my conversation might look like with one of them.
- -”How was your journey?” He will probably reply „ The journey was long and tiresome.
- Due to holes in the road, I couldn't have fallen asleep in the bus.
- Hopefully I've taken some books for my journey, so I could have read some interesting stuff.
- The road was iced and slippery.
- I was afraid of having an accident, the bus driver was driving really fast.
- It should have been forbiden.
- I guess he broke some traffic regulations.
- He even jumped the traffic lights.” The foreigner may also reply on contrary.
- „ My journey was fine.
- The distance between Warsaw and Toruń isn't big.
- It takes 3 hours to get from there to here.
- I'm used to public means of transport so that doesn't bother me.
- I'm not demanding, I'm pleased with everything what I encounter.” Then I'll tell to him: „Now, I'm going to show you where you will be living.
- I tried to find the most convenient and the chepeast singel room for you.
- It was hard to find proper accomodation in the middle of the year.
- Landlords and landladies are unwilling to rent a room for 2 months.
- There were some vacancies in the dormitory.
- However the price of singel room is higher than I thought it were.
- Sice you are a foreigner student, the prices are diffrent for you.
- I don't know why it is like that, but the manager treated you as an Erasmus student.
- If you don't like your room, we can try to look something more convenient.
- I understand your misgiving.
- The room isn't the best quality, but the building is five minutes to center.
- There is a great connection to your University.
- Above all, I think you will consider Toruń to be a beautiful place to live.
- The roads of Toruń are reconstracted in order to improve the traffic.
- In 2015 in Toruń will have been opened new tramway.” To be continued...
