Standard English
Mandy: Hi, my name’s Mandy. I’m Danny’s friend.
Bobby: Oh, hi Mandy. I’m Bobby. You live upstairs, don’t you?
Mandy: That’s right, in the apartment above yours. Mmm, something smells delicious. Are you cooking?
Bobby: Well, it depends on what you call cooking. I’m just making some chicken, very basic. Would you like to come in?
Mandy: Thank you. No, I don’t want to disturb you. I was just wondering if you have Danny’s new phone number.
Bobby: Oh no, I don’t have his new phone number. But if you call the old number, there’ll be recording telling you the new one. Do you understand?
Mandy: Oh, you’re right. Why didn’t I think of that?
Bobby: You know, your name sounded really familiar when Danny mentioned you, and now that I see you, you look familiar too. Have we met before?
Mandy: No, I don’t think so. You’re probably confusing me with my sister. She is pretty well-known.
Bobby: Really?
Mandy: Look, I’d better run back upstairs. I’m expecting a phone call. I’ll talk you later, OK? Good bye!
Bobby: See you later!
