JAKE: Where should we take a vacation this year? Let’s 
decide soon.
MELISSA: Well, I’d like to go somewhere warm. How about
the beach? Or we could rent a cabin on the lake.
JAKE: You want to go to the beach, again? I want to ski 
this winter. How about a compromise? What about 
traveling to the Alps in Europe next April? We can 
find a ski resort on a lake.
MELISSA: Oh, we’ve never been to Europe before! But I don’t 
know if it will be sunny and warm then. I need to 
do some research first. That will help me make up
my mind.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Decide is a useful verb to express choice. The idiom “to make up my mind” also 
means “to decide”: “There are so many choices in this menu. It’s going to take awhile 
to make up my mind/decide.” You can finish this sentence with either the idiom or the 
verb “decide.”
• How about This phrase presents an alternative. This phrase can be followed by a 
subject plus a conjugated verb or by a noun: How about we go swimming? / How about 
a movie tonight?
• Many verbs express opinions: to think / to believe / to suppose / to assume, etc. They 
are not all synonymous. For example, “to suppose” and “to assume” express that the 
speaker has a preconceived idea: He came back late from work, so I assumed that traffic 
was bad. /I suppose that may not have been the case, and that he might just have had a 
lot of work.

Day 27: Giving your opinion

Llevarse como el perro y el gato no tiene nada que ver con "to take". El verbo "llevar" tiene varios significados y aquí lo estamos usando como "llevarse" como verbo recíproco. Te lo explico ahora. Gramaticalmente es una expresión un poco más complicada pero solo tienes que entenderla y aprenderla para poder usarla correctamente ;)

Expresiones en español

Llevarse como el perro y el gato

JOHN: Hi, Alice, it’s John. How are you? 
ALICE: Oh, hi, John! I was just thinking about you.
JOHN: That’s nice. I was wondering if you’d like to go to a 
movie tonight.
ALICE: Sure, I’d love to! What’s playing?
JOHN: I was thinking about that new comedy Lights Out. What do
you think?
ALICE: Sounds great!
JOHN: OK, I’ll pick you up around 7:30. The movie starts at 8:00.
ALICE: See you then. Bye!



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Hi, Alice, it’s John: Hi, ____, it’s ____ is a casual and friendly way to say hello on the 
phone. Although “it’s” means “it is,” it is used to mean “I am” here.
• Oh, hi, John! Notice the rising intonation here. Alice is excited to hear from John and is 
very pleased that he called her.
• I was wondering if you’d like to ... This is a polite and indirect way of asking “Do you 
want to …?” John is nervous and does not want to appear too direct or bold. Notice 
how the question goes up at the end, which shows that he is not overly confident.
• Sure! I’d love to means “Yes, I would love to.” Notice that Alice is very enthusiastic 
and friendly. She wants John to feel comfortable about asking her out on a date.
• I was thinking about … / What do you think? Again, John does not want to appear 
too bold. He wants to give Alice a chance to suggest a movie.
• Sounds great! Is an informal way of saying “That is a good plan.”
• I’ll pick you up is an informal way of saying “I’ll come to your house so that we can 
go together.”

White Day (Beginner Level)

Nivel B1. B2. 
Tema: Revisar la historia es una forma excelente para poner en práctica el uso del PASADO.

Este año 2022 se cumplen 50 años de un invento que cambió la forma de escuchar música. Eso ocurrió en el año 1972. Poco después, en 1979, el mercado se llenó de algo llamado Walkman. 

Hoy en nuestro podcast vamos a recordar algunos de esos inventos en la historia de la música, y compartir algunos hechos sobre su origen. 

Espero que sea interesante para ti, porque para mi... lo fue. 

Este episodio cuenta con un PDF con la transcripción. Si quieres seguir el audio con su lectura, solo tienes que pedirlo. Muchas gracias por estar aquí y por participar con tus comentarios.
Hasta pronto. 
Nos vemos en clase. Rocío.
