Lesson 32
Asking for directions

Seva: I think sometimes it's difficult to understand [the] right direction, because English people, and people who speak English very well, try to explain [you] very quickly …maybe very difficult to understand first time: right - left; right - round; right and different directions here.

Seva: Excuse me. *Can you tell me, where is the nearest post office, please?
Pedestrian: If you go further up this road and turn right, it's just on your right.
Seva: OK - so I go for this road - and turn right …
Seva: No, if you follow this road right along - you come to a set of traffic lights - turn right at the traffic lights …
Seva: Ah! I turn right near the traffic lights.
Pedestrian: Yes.
Seva: OK. Thank you!
Seva: Right. Thank you.
