Preparation

Transcript

Susanne: Hi, Mario. Can you help me prepare some things for the next month?

Mario: OK, sure. What can I help you with?

Susanne: I need to visit the customer in Germany. It's important.

Mario: What can I do to help?

Susanne: Can you send an email to the customer? Ask them when I can visit them next week. Please do this first. It's a priority and very urgent.

Mario: Right. I'll do it today.

Susanne: Thanks. This next task is also important. Can you invite everyone to the next team meeting?

Mario: Yes, I will.

Susanne: But first you need to book a meeting room. After that, please send everyone an email about it.

Mario: Yes, of course.

Susanne: And finally, can you write a short report about our new project? I have to give a presentation to our managers next month. Please do it when you have time – sometime in the next two or three weeks. It's not too urgent.

Mario: Sure, no problem. I can do it this week.

Susanne: There's no hurry. Take your time.

Hello everyone! I would like to improve my English language level...it isn't easy for me cause I start to study late but I insist in this way. It's a challange...I think we can help each other....big hug

but i think your English is so cleaver and you write correct words and i think this task is very difficult for me to learn and speak English because i spend 10 hours daily on job and very few time for study and learning

In the audio the word "OUR" is not pronounced? When Susanne says: And finally, can you write a short report about our new project, or how do you pronounce that in spoken English?
