About this listen

In this episode, we rehearse three acts. Act 1 Your Chinese friend comments on your weight. Respond to her comment by redirecting the topic: Friend: 好久不见了!你胖了一点。(Hǎojiǔ bú jiàn le ! nǐ pàng le yìdiǎn 。) Me: 是吗?你最近怎么样啊?(Shì ma? Nǐ zuìjìn zěnmeyàng a?) Act 2 Explain that your work or study has kept you too busy or exhausted: 哎呀,我工作太忙了(āiya, wǒ gōngzuò tài máng le )。哎呀,我学习太累了( āiya, wǒ xuéxí tài lèi le 。)。 Act 3 Your friend makes an assumption about your situation. Confirm their assumption but downgrade itto not worry her. Friend: 你工作挺忙的吧(Nǐ gōngzuò hěn máng ba) ? Me: 嗯,有一点忙(En, yǒuyìdiǎn máng)。
