1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:08,800
Listen. Then take speaker A’s turn.

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:14,800
A asks about a report. Almost finished is
not finished.

3
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:18,467
Hello, where are you with the report?

4
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,433
I'm almost done. I just have the
conclusion left.

5
00:00:26,367 --> 00:00:29,400
Perfect. Can you send it to me tonight?

6
00:00:31,867 --> 00:00:36,233
Yes, of course. I'll send it to you before
6 p.m.

7
00:00:49,167 --> 00:00:52,333
Hello, where are you with the report?

8
00:01:05,667 --> 00:01:08,700
Perfect. Can you send it to me tonight?

9
00:01:22,067 --> 00:01:28,167
Sending is planned.

10
00:01:28,567 --> 00:01:34,667
B promises to send it before 6 p.m. Not
already sent.

11
00:01:35,067 --> 00:01:40,667
A asks B to clarify an instruction.
Checking is still to be done.

12
00:01:41,167 --> 00:01:45,033
Excuse me, I didn't understand the
instruction.

13
00:01:46,967 --> 00:01:50,967
Of course. You need to check the numbers.

14
00:01:52,900 --> 00:01:56,367
Okay. And I compare them with the budget?

15
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,800
Exactly. Then you give me feedback.

16
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:18,767
Excuse me, I didn't understand the
instruction.

17
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:35,167
Okay. And I compare them with the budget?

18
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:54,200
A gives B feedback about the checked
information.

19
00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:00,700
No format, deadline or result is
specified.

20
00:03:01,100 --> 00:03:06,700
A proposes sharing the work. The two
speakers agree to Friday.

21
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,833
We could divide the work into two parts.

22
00:03:12,767 --> 00:03:16,400
Good idea. I'll take the first part.

23
00:03:18,333 --> 00:03:22,500
Perfect. Let's meet on Friday to check in.

24
00:03:24,433 --> 00:03:26,400
Okay, see you Friday.

25
00:03:40,933 --> 00:03:44,567
We could divide the work into two parts.

26
00:03:57,500 --> 00:04:01,667
Perfect. Let's meet on Friday to check in.

27
00:04:14,500 --> 00:04:20,600
B takes the first part.

28
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,600
Another project: finished in this
fictional scene. Future ideas stay
proposals.

29
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:30,367
The project is finished. Well done
everyone.

30
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,933
Thank you. We met the deadlines well.

31
00:04:38,100 --> 00:04:42,500
Yes. Next time, we could communicate
better.

32
00:04:44,433 --> 00:04:47,900
Good idea. We can have shorter meetings.

33
00:05:00,933 --> 00:05:04,200
The project is finished. Well done
everyone.

34
00:05:17,433 --> 00:05:21,833
Yes. Next time, we could communicate
better.

35
00:05:34,667 --> 00:05:40,767
Meeting the deadlines is a past result.

36
00:05:41,167 --> 00:05:47,267
Shorter meetings are an idea for next
time.

37
00:05:59,667 --> 00:06:06,267
Let’s meet on Thursday to check progress.

38
00:06:18,667 --> 00:06:24,267
Did you separate a completed result from a
future idea?

39
00:06:24,667 --> 00:06:33,267
Replay the scene you want to practise.
