Jack: Excuse me. Could you tell me where the National Bank is? (Permisi. Bisakah Anda
memberitahu saya di mana Bank Nasional?)
Anna: The National Bank? Oh, I’m afraid that you are quite far from that. (Bank Nasional?
Oh, sepertinya anda kelewatan.)
Jack: What? I’m lost? I thought I was near! (Apa? Saya tersesat? Saya pikir saya sudah
dekat!)
Anna: Oh no. National Bank is in Saigon Road on Nguyen Street! (Oh tidak. Bank Nasional
di Saigon Road pada Nguyen Street!)
Jack: Could you please tell me how to get there? (Bisakah Anda memberitahu saya
bagaimana untuk sampai ke sana?)
Anna: Hmmm. Let me see... Go straight on this road, turn right at the traffic lights... (Hmmm.
Biarkan saya berpikir ... Pergi lurus di jalan ini, belok kanan di lampu lalu lintas ...)
Jack: Is that all? (Apakah itu sudah?)
Anna: Hmmm… Hold on. Let me think... Ah! After that, go past the big church and turn right
into Saigon Road. And... (Hmmm ... Tunggu. Biarkan saya berpikir ... Ah! Setelah itu,
melewati gereja besar dan berbelok ke kanan ke Saigon Road. Dan...)
Jack: Okay. And? (Oke. Dan?)
Anna: Opposite Saigon Road is the Nguyen Street. You will see the Vina Mall. It’s huge.
National Bank is next to it. You surely won’t be lost anymore. (Di sebrang Saigon Jalan
adalah Nguyen Street. Anda akan melihat Vina Mall. Itu besar. Bank Nasional sebelahnya.
Anda pasti tidak akan tersesat lagi.)
Jack: Got it! But is that the quickest way of getting there? (Got it! Tapi apakah itu jalan
tercepat untuk sampai sana?)
Anna: Yes, it is. (Ya, itu.)
Jack: Do you have a map? (Apakah Anda memiliki peta?)
Anna: I’m sorry I don’t have. (Maaf saya tidak punya.)
Jack: Okay. Thanks. (Oke. Terima kasih.)
Anna: You are welcome. (Sama - sama.)
