Lesson C:

to be honest

1: conversation strategy

sounding more direct

A: now listen to Hilda and David.

what would David miss if he left Brazil?

So, when you’re living here do you miss home?

I don’t miss too much to be honest.

I miss my family of course.

Right.

but I definitely don’t miss the food.

I miss my family, that’s about it.

so if you went back home would you miss lots of things about Brazil?

oh yeah, I’d absolutely miss the food here, yeah.

but actually I think the biggest thing would be, it would be weird for me to live in a country where I knew the language already, where all I have to do is work.

I just don’t see a challenge in that.

you know, here every day is a challenge, speaking the language.

uh-huh

in fact, living back home would be boring, I think.

I honestly don’t know what I do.
