I never ask a phone number before but now I am perpared to ask the number after seen this converistion ;).

I asked them for number directly.

Good pronounciation, simple sentences nice to listen to

I did it on a directly, polite way without think what she or he thinks. Sometimes it is true that someone gets you wrong.

Let's exchange phone numbers! "( ^-^)／且☆且＼(^-^ )"

Very good

Please, can I have your mobile number?

I don't why, but I can't watch the video, it doesn't load Could someone help me?

Hello rubky9 Are you able to see the other Starting Out videos (for example, episode 1 or 3)? If you were able to see them or are able to see the video now, it was probably a temporary technical error. I've just checked and it's working for me, so I think it should be fine now. If you still can't see the video, I'd suggest you try using a different web browser or a different device to see if it works there. This often solves the problem, but if you still can't see it after trying that, please let us know what browser version you are using and we'll do our best to help you. All the best Kirk The LearnEnglish Team
