Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, we’ll learn conversational phrases to answer the question “What's the matter?” After watching this video, you’ll be able to make complaints and ask someone else if they’re having any issues.
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.

Once more with the English translation.

“The office is hot.”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “What's the matter?”
That's: Este totul în regulă?
Listen to it again: Este totul în regulă?, Este totul în regulă?
