Julia: I love this department store.
Sammy: Me, too. Oh!
Julia: What's wrong?
Sammy: I haven't got any money.
Julia: There's a cashpoint just down the road. There! Next to the traffic lights.
Sammy: Oh, yes. I'll see you in five minutes?
Sammy: Hi, Julia? I'm here.
Julia: Oh, that was quick.
Sammy: Where are you?
Julia: Take the lift. And when you come out, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.
Sammy: Great.
Sammy: Take the lift, come out, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.
Sammy: '… come out of the lift, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.' But where? There's nobody here. ... Julia, hi.
Julia: Are you coming?
Sammy: Am I coming? Julia, I'm here. Where are you?
Julia: You're here? Sammy, I'm here. And I don't know where you are, but you're definitely not here.
Sammy: No, no, you're right. I'm not here. Look, I can see shoes. Are you near shoes?
Julia: Yes, I am.
Sammy: Really?!?
Julia: Yes. Can you see the trousers? Jeans, shorts ...
Sammy: Yes.
Julia: I'm near the trousers, looking at the dresses.
Sammy: Dresses?! Julia, there aren't any dresses.
Julia: Yes, there are, Sammy. And I'm looking at them now ...
Sammy: No, there aren't! Not on this floor ...
Julia: 'Not on this floor'? Sammy, which floor are you on?
Sammy: Basement. Men's clothes.
Julia: Women's clothes, Sammy. First floor.
Sammy: Julia, you said, 'take the lift'.
Julia: Look, I'll see you in two minutes.
Sammy: OK.
Sammy: Julia!
Julia: Sammy!

Hello Bernd,
I can check for you but it's not a question of copyright law but rather the terms of cooperation between the British Council and its partners. Where we can make material available, we do so, but other institutions have their own policies and requirements.

Thanks for your effort, Peter! I understand that there are two different things we're talking about. On the one hand, there is the situation of British Council and its partners, on the other hand, there are my thoughts about using the material for me and using suitable software. If you could find out anything else, I would be grateful! All the best.

Hello,
my question is whether it is allowed - just for my private learning process - to use the audio track of the video separately? That would be a big help!
Thank you
Bernd
Hello Bernd,
I'm afraid we can't make the audio available offline. Some of our content is created in collaboration with other institutions such as the BBC and we are governed by various regulations as far as what we can make available for download goes.

20 years ago, I had an appointment with my girlfriend in Nha Trang City. But on the street I had been get a big traffic jam and I was late to see her. At that time mobile phone still not used on the world and she very angry and but still waited for me. Now she is my wife.
We don't go anywhere without mobile phones. It makes to find someone easy.
If you lose in public place without phone, you should ask staff to put out imformation of the people you are looking for
Yes, I have several times I could not see my friends at the waiting spots, and because it was when there were no mobile phone available, I just had to go about or stand at the point patiently until the friend shows up. In the end, I had to go back home sadly since I was not able to see her/him after two hours of searching...
My husband and I can hardly ever meet in public places. It has been like that since our first date and we've been together for twenty-five years now. We just do not separate when we go out together or we agree on a meeting point. Cell phones help us a lot.
when I am near to them I ask them to make a certain movement like raise your hand please :) ...or ask them about their clothes color. Some times they find my before.
