Esperanza has adapted a textbook dialogue in unit 6 to create her own "Giving Directions" dialogue in Getafe. It's by an old man and a young girl!
Besides, she kindly sent us two pictures she took of the Cibelina, in Getafe. Thanks, Esperanza!
Enjoy, you all!!
Listen to the dialogue! (adapted from unit 6)
Peter: Excuse me, could you tell me: Where is the train station? Is it far from here?
Eva: Err…. it's about ten minutes on foot.
Peter: Oh good, it's near here.
Eva: Yes. It's very easy to get there. Go straight on, and on, and on, until Plaza de la Constitución (Constitution Square). There, you will see the Town Hall in front of you, and then, turn right, at Calle Madrid. It's the main street.
Then after about 100 meters you will find a small church in a street on the right Called Hospitalillo. Go straight on, past this church, along the main street, and you will see there are many shops. Keep on until you get to a fountain. It looks like the Cybeles /kaibílis/ Fountain in Madrid -- but smaller and uglier! Then turn left, go straight on, and on and finally you will find the Train Station. You can't miss it!!
Peter: Thank you very much, bye.
Eva: Bye
