#Person2#: Yeah, they can enjoy themselves in the day time and it is not so hot.
#Person1#: Honey, how about taking them to the beach this weekend?
#Person2#: That's great!

#Person2#: Oh, did I? I just forgot to say that my clock didn't work, either.
#Person1#: It's a good story. Now, tell me again why you want tomorrow off.
#Person2#: Well...er, you see, my grandmother is ill. She is in hospital and... and she is going to have an operation. I want to visit her.
#Person1#: Oh, I see. So your grandfather is ill as well.
#Person2#: As well? I... I don't understand.
#Person1#: Neither do I. When we began this conversation, you said your grandmother was ill. And you didn't say she was going to have an operation! You said she had already had one! And by the way, you also said she was in an old people's home, not in a hospital. | #Person2# concocts excuses for being late for school today and yesterday. #Person2# then asks for a leave tomorrow, saying #Person2#'s grandmother's in hospital, but #Person1# points out that what #Person1# says is inconsistent with #Person2#'s previous statements. |

Khandi: I saw the sign on the door.
Walter: Yeah, can't they afford to get it fixed if they pay our bonuses?

priest: That is not good. They need to be on point for the upcoming ceremony to baptize the new prince.
waiting priest: I know, it's a real issue. Could we bring in some stronger choir members?
priest: That is a thought. I am inclined to give them a second chance. Do you agree?
waiting priest: Yes, yes. Everyone deserves a chance for redemption. Perhaps with much practice they might improve.
priest: With only a week to go they would need to practice day and night. If anything goes wrong the Queen Mother will have their heads on spikes.
waiting priest: And possibly ours as well!
priest: It is true. Our saving grace is that we have that little bit of truth about the true father of the Prince. She will be wise to let us be.
waiting priest: I think these paintings need to be cleaned before the ceremony, too. They are disgracefully dirty!

priest: And so you shall. Have you said you "Our Mother's" today?
altar boy: Yes, first thing this morning. I will go clean and dust off the decorations. Should I get anything else down from the attic?
priest: Excellent. I believe there are some extra chairs up there. We will need them for this weekend as it is a special mass.
altar boy: I think I can get them by myself. I'm strong!
priest: Very good child. The lord's strength fills all the young!

#Person1#: Well, I'm not sure. It sounds as if the movie is rather violent for us.
#Person2#: Yes, but it's very famous. The director won some kind of award. Peter saw it a few months ago, and according to him, some of it was violent, but it was all done in a very 'matter-of-fact' way. Nothing to... eh... you know...
#Person1#: OK, then. I suppose it will make a change from comedies. | #Person2# tells #Person1# although the film is rather violent, it is famous. #Person1# is convinced. |
#Person1#: just don't understand why we have to take the subway. Look at this place. It's modern enough. But it's far from lively.

#Person1#: This isn't network, Frida. We are in San Francisco.
#Person2#: What's the difference?

#Person2#: But they are not as convenient as the subway.
#Person1#: You miss the point! We are not in a hurry to go anywhere.
#Person2#: Well, maybe you are right. We'll be more amused in a tram or a double-decker than on the subway.
#Person1#: I'm so glad you can finally see things in my way. Can we leave this dull place now?
#Person2#: What about the tickets? I've already bought them.
#Person1#: Just throw them away! | #Person1# complains about taking the subway because #Person1# thinks they will be more amused in a tram or a double-decker. #Person2# cannot understand at first but then agrees with #Person1#. |

#Person1#: Hi dude, you look upset, what's up?
#Person2#: Haven't been sleeping well recently.
#Person1#: What's the problem?
#Person2#: Every night my roommates watch the Korean soap operas till mid-night. I am not a big fan of Korean shows and I don't know how to tell them to stop without hurting their feelings.
#Person1#: Well, you can simply tell them you want to sleep, or make an agreement for a time when the room should quiet down.
#Person2#: Yeah, I know, but I find these sorts of things hard to say. They won't like it if I tell them to turn off the TV. Now I just hope the show will end soon.
#Person1#: I understand. I used to live in a dorm with four people. I was great in some aspects. We always went out and and had fun together. But on the other hand, when I wanted some quiet time, and people kept talking and laughing aloud, it was torturous. For me a room to myself, even a small one, is ideal. Though I don't mind sharing an apartment with somebody.
#Person2#: Yeah, I crave my own space. I just get so tiredhaving people around me all the time. We all need our private space. But I also think interpersonal skills very important. Living in a dorm means you have to learn to be considerate of others, otherwise nobody is going to have a good time. | #Person2# is disturbed by roommates late at night and doesn't know how to stop them euphemistically. #Person1# advises #Person2# to tell them about it or make an agreement for keeping quiet.

#Person1#: Say, Jim, how about going for a few beers after dinner?
#Person2#: You know that is tempting but is really not good for our fitness.
#Person1#: What do you mean? It will help us to relax.
#Person2#: Do you really think so? I don't. It will just make us fat and act silly. Remember last time?
#Person1#: I guess you are right. But what shall we do? I don't feel like sitting at home.
#Person2#: I suggest a walk over to the gym where we can play singsong and meet some of our friends.
#Person1#: That's a good idea. I hear Mary and Sally often go there to play pingpong. Perhaps we can make a foursome with them.
#Person2#: Sounds great to me! If they are willing, we could ask them to go dancing with us. That is excellent exercise and fun, too.
#Person1#: Good. Let's go now.
#Person2#: All right. | #Person1# feels bored at home and asks Jim go for a beer. Jim refuses and suggests going to the gym and meeting friends. |
