A<\/strong>: Hey, I heard you’re going on a trip soon! Where are you headed?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, I’m super excited! I’m going to Japan for two weeks.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That sounds amazing! What made you choose Japan?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Well, I’ve always been fascinated by Japanese culture, and I’ve heard so many great things about the country. Plus, I’ve been wanting to try authentic sushi for a long time.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That’s a great reason! Have you planned out<\/strong> your itinerary yet?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I have a rough idea<\/strong>, but I still need to finalize some details. I definitely want to explore Tokyo and visit some traditional temples in Kyoto.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Those are must-see<\/strong> places! Any specific activities or attractions you’re looking forward to?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I really want to visit the famous Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo and experience a traditional tea ceremony in Kyoto.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That all sounds incredible. Do you have any concerns or things you’re preparing for?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Well, I’ve been trying to learn a few basic Japanese phrases to help me get around<\/strong>. And I’ve been researching the local customs and etiquette to ensure I don’t unintentionally offend anyone.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That’s smart! It’s always good to be respectful of the local culture. Don’t forget to try some local street food too! It’s usually delicious.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Definitely! I’m already making a list of all the must-try<\/strong> dishes. I can’t wait to indulge in<\/strong> some ramen and sushi.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Well, it sounds like you’re going to have an amazing time. Safe travels and enjoy every moment of your trip!<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Thank you so much! I’ll make sure to share all the highlights<\/strong> when I’m back.<\/p>\n

\"doctor<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, I’ve been feeling<\/strong> really sick<\/strong> lately. I think I should go see a doctor.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Oh no, what’s been bothering<\/strong> you?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I’ve had a persistent headache and a sore throat<\/strong> for the past few days. I also feel quite fatigued.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That doesn’t sound good. I think it’s a good idea to see a doctor, just to be safe.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Yeah, you’re right. I’ve been trying home remedies, but nothing seems to be working.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: It’s always better to get professional advice when it comes to health issues. They can diagnose and provide proper treatment.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I guess I’ve been putting it off<\/strong> because I don’t want to deal with the hassle<\/strong> of going to the doctor’s office.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I understand, but it’s important to prioritize your health. I can help you find a reputable doctor nearby if you want.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That would be really helpful. Can you recommend someone?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Sure! I’ve heard good things about Dr. Johnson. She’s in a clinic just a few blocks away from here.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Great, I’ll look<\/strong> her up<\/strong>. Thanks for the recommendation.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: No problem. Let me know if you need any more help or if you want me to accompany you to the appointment.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I really appreciate that. I’ll keep<\/strong> you updated<\/strong> on<\/strong> what the doctor says.<\/p>\n

\"hiking<\/p>\n

A: <\/strong>Hey, Sarah! I was thinking, what do you say we plan something fun for this Saturday?
\n
\nB: <\/strong>That sounds great! I’m all up for it<\/strong>. Any ideas on what we could do?
\n
\nA: <\/strong>Well, how about going for a hike in the nearby nature reserve? The weather is supposed to be perfect.
\n
\nB: <\/strong>Oh, I love that idea! It’s been a while since I’ve been out in nature. What time should we meet?<\/p>\n

A: <\/strong>How about meeting at 9:00 am? That way we can beat the crowd<\/strong> and have a good amount of time for the hike.<\/p>\n

B: <\/strong>Sounds good to me. Should we bring any snacks or drinks with us?<\/p>\n

A: <\/strong>Definitely! It would be a good idea to pack some water, energy bars, and maybe some sandwiches for a picnic afterward. And don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes and bring sunscreen.<\/p>\n

B: <\/strong>Good point. I’ll look that up and let you know if there are any updates. This is going to be such a fun day!<\/p>\n

A: <\/strong>I can’t wait<\/strong>! It’s going to be a great way to relax and enjoy the weekend. Let’s make sure to capture some photos too.<\/p>\n

B: <\/strong>Absolutely! We’ll have plenty of Instagram-worthy shots<\/strong>. Okay, I’m in<\/strong>. See you on Saturday at 9:00 am!<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> See you then! Can’t wait for our hiking adventure.<\/p>\n

Conversaci\u00f3n 4<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, did you catch<\/strong> the game last night?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, I did! What a thrilling<\/strong> match it was!<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Absolutely! I couldn’t believe that last-minute goal.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I know, right? It completely turned the game around<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: And the goalkeeper’s saves<\/strong> were incredible too. He really stepped up<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Definitely. He’s been in top form lately. It’s great to see him perform like that.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: By the way, who do you think will win the championship this year?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: It’s tough to say. There are so many strong teams this season. I’m rooting for<\/strong> my favorite, but anything can happen.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I agree. The competition is intense, and every team seems to have its strengths.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Absolutely. It’s going to be an exciting playoffs<\/strong> for sure.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds<\/strong>. Let’s get together for the next game and watch it live.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Sounds like a plan! I’ll bring some snacks. It’s always more fun to watch with friends.<\/p>\n

\"two<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, have you ever thought about what life would be like in a post-apocalyptic world?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, it’s a pretty scary thought. I mean, imagine everything we take for granted<\/strong> just disappearing.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Absolutely. No electricity, no internet, no modern conveniences. It would be a completely different way of life.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, we would have to rely on<\/strong> our survival skills. Hunting for food, finding shelter, and defending ourselves from threats.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: And what about the lack of resources? With limited supplies, we’d have to learn to be resourceful and make do with<\/strong> what we have.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: True. It might bring out<\/strong> the best and worst in people. Some might cooperate and form communities, while others might become more selfish and desperate.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: It’s definitely a grim picture, but I guess it’s also an opportunity for humanity to rebuild and start anew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, I can see that. We would have to come together, share knowledge, and work towards a common goal of rebuilding society.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: And maybe, just maybe, we would learn from our past mistakes and create a more sustainable and resilient world.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That’s a hopeful thought. It’s fascinating to think about how different our lives would be and how we would adapt in such extreme circumstances.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Absolutely. It really puts things into perspective and makes us appreciate what we have now. Let’s hope we never have to experience anything like that in reality.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Agreed. Let’s cherish<\/strong> the present and hope for a brighter future.<\/p>\n

\"broken<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, how are you doing?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Hey, I’m okay. Just feeling<\/strong> a bit down<\/strong> lately.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: What’s been bothering you?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: It’s love, or rather, the lack of it. I’ve had a string of disappointments in that department.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I’m sorry to hear that. Want to talk about it?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, it would be nice to get it off my chest<\/strong>. I’ve been putting myself out there<\/strong>, going on dates, but it seems like I keep attracting the wrong people.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That can be really frustrating. Have you figured out<\/strong> why that’s been happening?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I’ve been reflecting on it, and I think I might be rushing into<\/strong> relationships without really getting to know the person first. I’ve been too focused on finding someone rather than finding the right someone.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That’s a common mistake. It’s important to take your time and get to know someone before jumping into<\/strong> something serious.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: You’re right. I’ve also realized that I need to work on my own self-esteem and not settle for<\/strong> less than what I deserve.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Absolutely! You deserve someone who appreciates and respects you. Don’t settle for anything less than that.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Thank you for listening and offering your perspective. It’s nice to have someone to talk to about this.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Of course, anytime. Remember, love disappointments happen to everyone, but it doesn’t define your worth. Keep focusing on yourself, and the right person will come along when the time is right.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I appreciate your support. I’ll try to stay positive and patient.<\/p>\n

\"Watching<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, have you been watching any interesting TV series lately?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Absolutely! I’ve been hooked on<\/strong> this new show called Stranger Things<\/em>. Have you seen it?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Oh, definitely! I love Stranger Things<\/em>. The storyline is so captivating, and the ’80s setting adds a nostalgic touch.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I couldn’t agree more! The characters are fantastic, especially Eleven and Chief Hopper. Their performances are outstanding.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I completely agree. And the whole supernatural element mixed with coming-of-age<\/strong> themes really makes it unique.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Exactly! It’s like a perfect blend of mystery, sci-fi, and adventure. I can’t wait for the next season to come out.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Me too! I’m<\/strong> also really into<\/strong> Game of Thrones<\/em>. The intricate plot and complex characters keep me on the edge of my seat.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Oh, Game of Thrones<\/em> is epic! The battles, political intrigue, and unexpected twists make it so addictive. Who’s your favorite character?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: It’s hard to choose, but I’d have to go with Tyrion Lannister. His wit and intelligence are just incredible.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I love Tyrion too! He always brings a sense of humor to the intense situations. But I also have a<\/strong> soft spot<\/strong> for<\/strong> Arya Stark and her journey.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Oh, Arya is amazing! Her transformation throughout the series is remarkable. The show definitely has some unforgettable moments.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Absolutely. It’s so much fun discussing our favorite TV shows. We should exchange recommendations for other series to watch.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Definitely! I’m always looking for new shows to dive into<\/strong>. Let’s make a list and compare notes.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Sounds like a plan<\/strong>! I can’t wait to hear your recommendations, and I’m excited to share mine as well.<\/p>\n

\"photographer\"<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, have you ever thought about learning something new?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, definitely! I’ve been wanting to pick up<\/strong> a new skill or hobby lately. How about you?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Same here! I feel like I’ve been in<\/strong> a bit of a rut<\/strong> and it’s time to explore something different.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That’s a great mindset<\/strong> to have! Any specific ideas in mind?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Well, I’ve always been fascinated by photography. I think it would be cool to learn how to take professional-looking pictures.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That’s awesome! Photography can be a lot of fun. You could start by getting a basic camera and experimenting with different settings.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Yeah, I was thinking of investing in a decent camera and maybe taking a photography course to learn the fundamentals.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That’s a good plan. I’ve been considering learning to play the guitar. I’ve always loved music, and it would be great to be able to play my favorite songs.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That sounds amazing! You could start by finding a beginner’s guitar and maybe taking some online lessons or finding a local instructor.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That’s a good idea. I’ll definitely look into it. Maybe we can motivate each other and keep each other accountable in our learning journeys.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Absolutely! Having a learning buddy can make the process more enjoyable and help us stay committed<\/strong>. Let’s do it!<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: I’m in! Let’s explore our new interests and see where they take us. It’s never too late to learn something new, right?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Definitely! The world is full of possibilities. I can’t wait to see what we achieve.<\/p>\n

\"father<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, how’s it going?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Pretty good! How about you?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Not bad, thanks. Hey, did you see my sister at the party last night?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Yeah, I did! She was having a great time. She’s always the life of the party<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Haha, yeah, that’s true. She’s always been outgoing<\/strong>. Speaking of family, how’s your brother doing?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: He’s doing well, thanks for asking. He just had a baby girl last month, so he’s been busy adjusting to fatherhood.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: That’s amazing! Please send my congratulations to him. Does he have any other kids?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: No, this is their first child. They’re over the moon<\/strong> with joy.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: I can only imagine<\/strong>. Being a parent must be such a rewarding experience.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Definitely. It’s a lot of responsibility, but it brings so much happiness as well. By the way, how are your parents doing?<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: They’re good, thanks. They recently retired<\/strong> and have been enjoying their newfound free time. They’ve been traveling a lot and exploring new hobbies.<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: That sounds wonderful. It’s great to see them enjoying their well-deserved retirement.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Yeah, it’s been nice to see them relax and pursue their passions. Family is so important, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

B<\/strong>: Absolutely. They’re always there for us, supporting and cheering us on. We’re lucky to have such a close-knit family<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Couldn’t agree more. Well, it was good catching up on <\/strong>you. Let’s grab a coffee sometime and continue this conversation.<\/p>\n

\"cute<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>: Hey, have you ever had any paranormal experiences?
\n
\nB<\/strong>: Oh, definitely! I had this one incident a few years ago. I was home alone, and I heard footsteps<\/strong> upstairs even though I knew no one else was there.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: That sounds creepy<\/strong>! What did you do?
\n
\nB<\/strong>: I was terrified, but I mustered up the courage<\/strong> to investigate. As I went upstairs, the footsteps suddenly stopped, and there was no one in any of the rooms.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: That’s so strange! Did anything else happen?
\n
\nB<\/strong>: Yes, actually. On another occasion, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a shadowy figure standing at the foot of my bed. It disappeared when I turned on the lights.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: Wow, that would give me chills<\/strong>! Have you ever tried to find an explanation for these experiences?
\n
\nB<\/strong>: I did some research and found out that my house has a history of paranormal activity. Apparently, there have been reports of strange occurrences by previous owners as well.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: That’s fascinating, but also kind of unsettling<\/strong>. Do you still experience anything paranormal in your house?
\n
\nB<\/strong>: Surprisingly, things have been calm lately. I’m not sure if whatever it was has moved on or if I’ve just gotten used to it.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: It’s good to hear that it’s calmed down. I’ve never had any paranormal experiences myself, but hearing stories like yours always pique my curiosity<\/strong> about the supernatural.
\n
\nB<\/strong>: It’s definitely a topic that sparks curiosity and makes you question the unknown. Some experiences can be quite unnerving<\/strong>, but they also make you realize that there’s more to this world than meets the eye.
\n
\nA<\/strong>: Absolutely. It’s fascinating how many unexplained phenomena are out there. Thanks for sharing your experiences with me!
\n
\nB<\/strong>: No problem! It’s always interesting to talk about these things with someone who’s open-minded<\/strong>. Who knows, maybe someday you’ll have your own paranormal encounter!<\/p>\n

8 componentes clave a la hora de hablar<\/h2>\n

Los estudiantes de ingl\u00e9s ver\u00e1n que, en las conversaciones informales, los hablantes nativos suelen usar los siguientes componentes:<\/p>\n

1. Jerga<\/h3>\n

Algunos ejemplos son:<\/p>\n

2. Modismos<\/h3>\n

Son frases o expresiones coloquiales<\/a> que tienen un significado figurado distinto al significado literal de las palabras que las componen.<\/p>\n

Take a rain check (on something): <\/strong><\/em>aplazar o posponer algo; dejarlo para otro d\u00eda<\/p>\n

Do you want to come over tonight for food? \u2014 I\u2019ll have to\u00a0take a rain check\u00a0on that, but what\u2019s about next week?
\n<\/em>\u00bfQuieres venir esta noche a cenar?\u00a0\u00a0\u2014 Tendremos que\u00a0dejarlo para otro d\u00eda, \u00bfqu\u00e9 tal la semana que viene?<\/p>\n

3. Phrasal verbs<\/em><\/h3>\n

Son combinaciones de verbos y part\u00edculas<\/a> (preposiciones <\/a>o adverbios) que forman una unidad de significado distinta a la de los verbos y las part\u00edculas por separado.<\/p>\n

Find out<\/strong><\/em>: descubrir<\/p>\n

4. Filler words<\/em><\/h3>\n

Las muletillas <\/a>son t\u00e9rminos o expresiones que sirven para \u00abtapar\u00bb pausas o silencios en el habla y que no a\u00f1aden significado a la conversaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

Well<\/strong> <\/em>normalmente muestra que est\u00e1s todav\u00eda pensando en algo o expresa duda<\/p>\n

Well, you could be right about that, but I think there could be another way.
\n<\/em>Bueno, podr\u00edas estar en lo cierto, pero creo que hay otra manera.<\/p>\n

Let me think<\/strong><\/em> significa que necesitas un poco de tiempo para pensar sobre una decisi\u00f3n<\/p>\n

Tuesday?\u00a0Let me think. I could do at 10 am, but I need to double check that.
\n<\/em>\u00bfEl martes?\u00a0D\u00e9jame pensar. Podr\u00eda hacerlo a las 10 de la ma\u00f1ana pero necesito mirarlo bien.<\/p>\n

Actually<\/strong> <\/em>suele utilizarse para contradecir una frase anterior.<\/p>\n

\n<\/em>Tiene 89 a\u00f1os.\u00a0De hecho, puede que me est\u00e9 equivocando. Podr\u00eda tener 91.<\/p>\n

5. Contracciones<\/h3>\n

Las contracciones en ingl\u00e9s <\/a>son combinaciones de dos palabras que se unen y se contraen en una sola palabra.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve<\/strong>\u00a0got two hours left.<\/em> (En vez de I have<\/em>)
\nMe quedan dos horas.<\/p>\n

He\u2019ll<\/strong>\u00a0call you.<\/em> (en vez de he will)<\/em>
\nTe llamar\u00e1.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m\u00a0gonna<\/strong>\u00a0eat the cake.<\/em>\u00a0(going + to)
\nMe voy a comer la tarta.<\/p>\n

If you\u00a0wanna go<\/strong>, let\u2019s go.<\/em>\u00a0(want + to)
\nSi quieres ir, v\u00e1monos.<\/p>\n

6. Preguntas de seguimiento<\/h3>\n

Las follow-up questions<\/em> son preguntas que ayudan a que la conversaci\u00f3n fluya y demuestran inter\u00e9s por el tema que se est\u00e9 hablando.<\/p>\n

Por ejemplo si preguntas a alguien en qu\u00e9 universidad estudi\u00f3, cuando te conteste, podr\u00e1s hacer una pregunta de seguimiento pregunt\u00e1ndole sobre qu\u00e9 le llev\u00f3 a elegir esa universidad y no otra.<\/p>\n

7. Uso del humor<\/h3>\n

Si lo ves apropiado, dale un toque de humor a la conversaci\u00f3n para crear una conexi\u00f3n m\u00e1s cercana con la otra persona y que haya un buen ambiente entre ambos.<\/p>\n

8. Lenguaje corporal<\/h3>\n

Recuerda que la comunicaci\u00f3n no verbal tambi\u00e9n es importante.<\/p>\n

Presta atenci\u00f3n a tu lenguaje corporal<\/a>, como mantener el contacto visual, las expresiones faciales y los gestos para transmitir tu mensaje de manera efectiva.<\/p>\n
