English Conversation Practice - Role Play: Car Park Bump

It’s role play time! This is your chance to  have a real English conversation with me. 

Oras na ng role play! Ito na ang iyong pagkakataon para makipag-usap sa akin sa Ingles.

And you don't have to worry about what to say.  Because I have written you a fabulous script. 

At hindi mo kailangang mag-alala tungkol sa kung ano ang sasabihin. Dahil isinulat ko sa iyo ang isang kamangha-manghang script.

Just a quick interruption to let you know that  you can download the lesson notes for free by  

Isang mabilis na pagkaantala upang ipaalam sa iyo na maaari mong i-download ang mga tala ng aralin nang libre sa pamamagitan ng

clicking on the link in the description. First, listen to the interaction,  

pag- click sa link sa paglalarawan. Una, pakinggan ang pakikipag-ugnayan,

then we will break down some of  the language used. And finally,  

pagkatapos ay hahati-hatiin natin ang ilan sa mga wikang ginamit. At sa wakas,

you will have a chance to step in and  roleplay both parts. So, let's go!

magkakaroon ka ng pagkakataong pumasok at gampanan ang parehong bahagi. Kaya, tayo na!

You have got to be kidding me!

Niloloko mo ba ako!

You stupid idiot! Why didn’t  you look where you were going?

Ang tanga mo! Bakit hindi ka tumingin sa dinadaanan mo?

I’m sorry!?

Ako ay humihingi ng paumanhin!?

So, you should be, look at what you’ve done!

Kaya, dapat, tingnan mo kung ano ang nagawa mo!

No, hang on a minute. You were the one  who wasn’t looking; you drove into me.

Hindi, sandali lang. Ikaw ang hindi tumitingin; pinasok mo ako.

This is a car park, I was simply  reversing out of my space,  

This is a car park, I was simply reversing out of my space,

you should have given me some room instead  of trying to zip past me like a maniac.

you should have given me some room instead of trying to zip past me like a maniac.

I wasn’t driving like a maniac; I was barely  doing 10 mph. Beside I had right of way.

Hindi ako nagmamaneho na parang baliw; Halos 10 mph ang ginagawa ko. Sa tabi ko ay may right of way.

Oh, move out of my way, I need to photograph this  scene as evidence. You better have insurance.

Oh, umalis ka na, kailangan kong kunan ng larawan ang eksenang ito bilang ebidensya. Mas mabuting may insurance ka.

Look, you don’t need to be so rude. Regardless  of who is at fault here, it was an accident.  

Tingnan mo, hindi mo kailangang maging bastos. Hindi alintana kung sino ang may kasalanan dito, ito ay isang aksidente.

Have a little respect please. And yes,  of course I have insurance. Do you?

Magkaroon ng kaunting paggalang. And yes, syempre may insurance ako. ikaw ba?

Ah, that’s not important, as it will be  your insurance company that’ll have to  

Ah, hindi iyon mahalaga, dahil ito ang iyong kompanya ng seguro na

cover this damage. And looking at the state  of my car, I would say it’s a write off.

sasagot sa pinsalang ito. At sa pagtingin sa estado ng aking sasakyan, masasabi kong ito ay isang write off.

A write off? I don’t think so. You have  a broken head-light and a few scratches.

Isang write off? Sa tingin ko ay hindi. Mayroon kang sirang head-light at ilang mga gasgas.

No, the speed at which you ran into me, there  is definitely going to be underlying damage.

Hindi, ang bilis mong bumangga sa akin, tiyak na magkakaroon ng underlying damage.

Are you trying to scam me?  Did you do this on purpose?

Sinusubukan mo bang lokohin ako? Sinadya mo ba ito?

Scam you? What do you take me for? I’m not  gonna stand here and let you abuse me like that.  

Scam ka? Ano ang kinukuha mo sa akin? Hindi ako tatayo dito at hahayaan mo akong abusuhin ng ganyan.

Give me your insurance details and get lost.

Ibigay sa akin ang iyong mga detalye ng insurance at mawala ka.

You give me your details first.

Ibigay mo muna ang mga detalye mo.

There’s my card, my name and number’s on the back.

Nandiyan ang card ko, pangalan at numero ko sa likod.

And what about your insurance details?

At ano ang tungkol sa iyong mga detalye ng seguro?

Give me your details and I can pass any  additional information you need via email.

Ibigay sa akin ang iyong mga detalye at maipapasa ko ang anumang karagdagang impormasyon na kailangan mo sa pamamagitan ng email.

Well can I at least see your driving license.

Maari ko bang makita ang iyong lisensya sa pagmamaneho.

No! Who do you think you are? Give me your  details now or I will call the police.

Hindi! Sino ka sa tingin mo? Bigyan mo ako ng iyong mga detalye ngayon o tatawag ako ng pulis.

You’re not insured, are you?

Hindi ka nakaseguro, di ba?

It’s none of your business.  Give me what I’ve asked for.

Ito ay wala sa iyong negosyo. Ibigay mo sa akin ang hiniling ko.

Let’s call the police, shall we? I am sure  they will happily assist in this situation.

Tawag na tayo ng pulis ha? Sigurado akong matutuwa silang tutulong sa sitwasyong ito.

Oh, for Pete’s sake, WILL YOU STOP!!!

Ay, alang-alang kay Pete, TIGILAN MO BA!!!

No, I’m not insured. Are you happy now?  

Hindi, hindi ako nakaseguro. Masaya ka na ba ngayon?

Look, I just got out the nick three weeks ago  and I am trying to get my life back in order.  

Tingnan mo, kakalabas ko lang ng nick tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan at sinisikap kong ayusin ang buhay ko.

This is my nan’s car, I can’t afford to get  insurance but I.. I need to run some errands  

This is my nan's car, I can't afford to get insurance but I.. I need to run some errands

and move some stuff, so I just borrowed it for  today. And now this. My nan’s gonna kill me.

and move some stuff, kaya hiniram ko na lang for today. At ngayon ito. Papatayin ako ng nanay ko.

Ok, well look, the damage doesn’t seem extensive.  I’m willing to hold off calling the insurance  

Ok, tingnan mo, hindi masyadong malaki ang pinsala. Handa akong ihinto ang pagtawag sa

company. We can see what the repairs are  and figure out who should cover what.

kompanya ng seguro. Maaari naming makita kung ano ang mga pag-aayos at malaman kung sino ang dapat sumaklaw kung ano.

I haven’t got two pennies to rub together mate.  

Wala akong dalawang sentimos upang kuskusin pare.

I had three interviews as soon as I was released  and all of them rejected me cos of my record.

I had three interviews as soon as I was released and all of them rejected me cos of my record.

If you are willing to do some heavy lifting then  there may be a position at my company you could  

Kung handa kang gumawa ng ilang mabigat na pag-aangat, maaaring mayroong isang posisyon sa aking kumpanya na maaari mong

take. But, I really would need to see some  proper ID before I consider employing you.

kunin. Ngunit, kailangan ko talagang makakita ng tamang ID bago ko isaalang-alang na gamitin ka.

That’s…umm, amazing. Thank you. I’m so sorry  for acting like an arse before, I just panicked.

Iyan ay…umm, kamangha-mangha. Salamat. I'm so sorry for acting like an ass before, nagpanic lang ako.

That’s ok. My name’s Anna by the way.

ok lang yan. Anna pala ang pangalan ko.

Jackie. It’s nice to meet you, Anna. I guess  you could say, I was lucky to bump into you.

Jackie. Ikinagagalak kitang makilala, Anna. I guess you could say, I was lucky to bump in you.

Brilliant. Now it's time to look at  the language used in a bit more detail. 

Napakatalino. Ngayon ay oras na upang tingnan ang wikang ginamit nang mas detalyado.

“You have got to be kidding me!” Okay, phrases like, “you've got to  

"Niloloko mo ba ako!" Okay, mga pariralang tulad ng, "

be kidding me”, “you've got to be joking me.” We  also sometimes ask the question. “Are you joking?”  

dapat binibiro mo ako", "dapat binibiro mo ako." Minsan din tayo nagtatanong. "Nagbibiro ka ba?"

“Are you kidding?” This basically means  

"Nagbibiro ka ba?" Nangangahulugan

I can't believe it. I don't believe it. And it's usually when something's happened  

ito na hindi ako makapaniwala. Hindi ako naniniwala. At kadalasan kapag may nangyari

or when something's been said that we don't like.  So, there's something negative. It can be used in  

o may nasabi na hindi natin gusto. Kaya, mayroong isang bagay na negatibo. Maaari rin itong magamit sa

a positive way as well. Like if someone says, “Congratulations, you've got the job.” 

positibong paraan. Tulad ng kung may nagsasabing, "Binabati kita, nakuha mo na ang trabaho."

“Are you kidding? Are you..  You've got to be kidding me.” 

"Nagbibiro ka ba? Ikaw ba.. You've got to be kidding me.”

It's just a sense of disbelief. I  don't believe what's just happened. 

Ito ay isang pakiramdam ng hindi makapaniwala. Hindi ako naniniwala sa nangyari kanina.

“Why didn’t you look where you were going?” “I'm sorry.” 

"Bakit hindi ka tumingin sa dinadaanan mo?" "Ako ay humihingi ng paumanhin."

“So, you should be, look at what you’ve done!” 

"Kaya, dapat, tingnan mo ang ginawa mo!"

Okay, so what happened there was Anna in the  white and black said, “I'm sorry. I'm sorry.” 

Okay, so what happened there was Anna in the white and black said, “I'm sorry. Ako ay humihingi ng paumanhin."

And she wasn't actually apologizing, although  that's what the other character took it as. 

At hindi naman talaga siya humihingi ng tawad, bagama't iyon ang kinuha ng ibang karakter.

But she wasn't actually apologizing.  She was saying, “Excuse me?” 

Pero hindi talaga siya humihingi ng tawad. Ang sabi niya, "Excuse me?"

It was another phrase of disbelief. “I'm sorry! Excuse me! What did you  

Ito ay isa pang parirala ng kawalang-paniwala. "Ako ay humihingi ng paumanhin! Excuse me! Ano ang

just say? I can't believe my ears. Did you really  just say that? Did you call me a stupid idiot?” 

sinabi mo? Hindi ako makapaniwala sa aking pandinig. ngayon mo lang ba talaga sinabi? Tinawag mo ba akong stupid idiot?"

So always take it in context. And from the  manner in which the person is saying, “sorry”,  

Kaya laging dalhin ito sa konteksto. At mula sa paraan kung saan ang tao ay nagsasabi ng, "sorry",

but if someone says, “I'm sorry”, in a  questioning way, then what they're saying is,  

ngunit kung ang isang tao ay nagsabi, "I'm sorry", sa isang pagtatanong na paraan, kung gayon ang kanilang sinasabi ay,

“Excuse me? Can you say that again? Because  I can't believe you just said what you said.” 

"Excuse me? Maaari mo bang sabihin muli? Dahil hindi ako makapaniwala na sinabi mo lang ang sinabi mo.”

“No, hang on a minute. You were the one  who wasn’t looking; you drove into me.” 

“Hindi, sandali lang. Ikaw ang hindi tumitingin; pinasok mo ako."

Okay, so Anna just said, “Hang on a  minute.” “Hang on” is a phrasal verb. And it  

Okay, kaya sinabi na lang ni Anna, "Sandali lang." Ang "Hang on" ay isang phrasal verb. At ang

simply means “wait”, just wait a minute,  I need to understand what's going on here. 

ibig sabihin lang nito ay "maghintay", sandali lang, kailangan kong maunawaan kung ano ang nangyayari dito.

“This is a car park, I was simply reversing out  of my space, you should have given me some room  

"Ito ay isang paradahan ng kotse, tumalikod lang ako sa aking espasyo, dapat ay binigyan mo ako ng ilang silid

instead of trying to zip past like a maniac.” Okay, so “to zip”, “to zip.” This can be used  

sa halip na subukang mag-zip sa nakaraan na parang baliw." Okay, kaya "mag-zip", "mag-zip." Ito ay maaaring gamitin

for many different things. But as a verb,  “to zip” means to move quite quickly.  

para sa maraming iba't ibang bagay. Ngunit bilang isang pandiwa, ang ibig sabihin ng "mag-zip" ay kumilos nang mabilis.

We talk about cars zipping through the  traffic bikes, motorbikes, cyclists will  

Pinag-uusapan natin ang tungkol sa mga kotseng nag-zip sa mga traffic bike, mga motorbike, ang mga siklista ay mag-

zip through standstill traffic, won't they? Can be quite dangerous if, if it's very, very busy  

zip sa nakatigil na trapiko, hindi ba? Maaaring maging lubhang mapanganib kung, kung ito ay napaka, napaka abala

if they zip through, but it means to move quickly. She also said, “you zipped past me like  

kung sila ay mag-zip, ngunit nangangahulugan ito na lumipat nang mabilis. Sinabi rin niya, "You zipped past me like

a maniac.” Now a maniac is a person who  shows extremely wild and violent behaviour. 

a maniac." Ngayon ang isang baliw ay isang taong nagpapakita ng labis na ligaw at marahas na pag-uugali.

So, there’s a very negative thing to be a  maniac. You’re volatile, wild and violent. 

Kaya, mayroong isang napaka-negatibong bagay na maging isang baliw. Ikaw ay pabagu-bago, ligaw at marahas.

“I wasn't driving like a maniac. I  was barely doing 10 miles an hour.” 

“Hindi ako nagmamaneho na parang baliw. Halos 10 milya bawat oras ang ginagawa ko."

Okay, she said, “I was barely  doing 10 miles an hour.” 

Okay, sabi niya, "Halos 10 milya kada oras ang ginagawa ko."

If you're barely doing something, it means you're  almost not doing it. You're only just doing it. 

Kung halos wala kang ginagawa, nangangahulugan ito na halos hindi mo ito ginagawa. Ginagawa mo lang.

If I am going to get a train, I'm going to go and  catch a train. And I'm running late. I arrive at  

Kung kukuha ako ng tren, pupunta ako at sumakay ng tren. At male-late na ako. Dumating ako sa

the train station with only five minutes to spare.  And in that time, I needed to go to the toilet  

istasyon ng tren na may limang minuto na lang ang natitira. At sa oras na iyon, kailangan kong pumunta sa banyo

to take a selfie because I was going to take  pictures all along the trip and buy breakfast from  

upang mag-selfie dahil kukuha ako ng mga larawan sa buong biyahe at bumili ng almusal

the shop and ideally sit down eat my breakfast.  I can say to you “Oh, I was so late this morning,  

sa tindahan at perpektong umupo at kumain ng aking almusal. Masasabi ko sa iyo "Naku, na-late ako kaninang umaga,

I barely had time to take a selfie never  mind go to the toilet and buy breakfast.” 

halos wala akong oras na mag-selfie, hindi bale pumunta sa banyo at bumili ng almusal."

So, I barely had time to do that. And there  was, there was not enough time to do it. 

Kaya, halos wala akong oras para gawin iyon. At mayroon, walang sapat na oras upang gawin ito.

Okay. Next. “Beside I had right of way. Oh, move out...”

Sige. Susunod. “Beside may right of way ako. Oh, umalis ka na...”

“Right of Way.” We're talking  about the road system here.  

“Right of Way.” Pinag-uusapan natin ang sistema ng kalsada dito.

If you “have right of way”, it means that you  have priority to go, you're allowed to go. If  

Kung ikaw ay "may karapatan sa daan", nangangahulugan ito na mayroon kang priyoridad na puntahan, pinapayagan kang pumunta. Kung

you don't have right of way, you have to stop  and wait for everybody else until you can go. 

wala kang karapatan sa daan, kailangan mong huminto at maghintay para sa iba hanggang sa makapunta ka.

For example, near where I live, there is a bridge  to go underneath the bridge. It's very narrow,  

Halimbawa, malapit sa tinitirhan ko, may tulay na pupunta sa ilalim ng tulay. Napakakipot,

there's only enough room for one vehicle not two  passing each other. So, someone has to wait on  

sapat lang ang espasyo para sa isang sasakyan hindi dalawa ang dumadaan. Kaya, kailangang may maghintay sa

their side of the bridge until it's clear. Whereas  on the other side you have right of away and you  

gilid nila ng tulay hanggang sa maging malinaw. Samantalang sa kabilang panig ay mayroon ka kaagad at

can just drive straight through. You don't have  to wait. You can just keep driving. Because you  

maaari ka lamang magmaneho nang diretso. Hindi mo kailangang maghintay. Maaari kang magpatuloy sa pagmamaneho. Dahil

have right of way if you're on one side, but  there's signage on the road on the other side  

may right of way ka kung nasa isang gilid ka, pero may signage sa kalsada sa kabilang side

of the bridge that says you don't have right of  way. You must give way to other people. Okay?

ng tulay na nagsasabing wala kang right of way. Dapat kang magbigay daan sa ibang tao. Sige?

Oh, move out of my way, I need to photograph this  scene as evidence. You better have insurance. 

Oh, umalis ka na, kailangan kong kunan ng larawan ang eksenang ito bilang ebidensya. Mas mabuting may insurance ka.

Okay, she says, “You better have insurance.” “To better have something” or someone says,  

Okay, sabi niya, "Mas mabuting may insurance ka." "Para mas magkaroon ng isang bagay" o sasabihin ng isang tao,

“You better do something.” They are basically  giving you a warning or giving you advice. 

"Mas mabuting gumawa ka ng isang bagay." Karaniwang binibigyan ka nila ng babala o nagbibigay sa iyo ng payo.

Oh, it looks like it's going to rain  today. You better take your umbrella  

Naku, mukhang uulan ngayon. Ilabas mo ang iyong payong

out with you just in case. Or I won't be home this time. Afternoon.  

kung sakali. O hindi ako uuwi this time. hapon.

So, you better take your key to let  yourself in when you get home from work. 

Kaya, mas mabuting kunin mo ang iyong susi para makapasok ka kapag nakauwi ka mula sa trabaho.

So, there it's advice. Or I might say  to you, “You better be back by midnight,  

Kaya, narito ang payo. O maaari kong sabihin sa iyo, "Mas mabuting bumalik ka sa hatinggabi,

or I'm locking the doors and you're not  coming in.” That would be a warning. Okay,  

o ni-lock ko ang mga pinto at hindi ka papasok." Iyon ay magiging isang babala. Okay,

so you better do something, or you better  have something indicates warning or advice. 

kaya mas mahusay kang gumawa ng isang bagay, o mas mahusay kang magkaroon ng isang bagay na nagpapahiwatig ng babala o payo.

Look, you don’t need to be so rude.  Regardless of who is at fault here,  

Tingnan mo, hindi mo kailangang maging bastos. Hindi alintana kung sino ang may kasalanan dito,

it was an accident. Have a little respect please.  And yes, of course I have insurance. Do you?

ito ay isang aksidente. Magkaroon ng kaunting paggalang. And yes, syempre may insurance ako. ikaw ba?

Ah, that’s not important, as it will be  your insurance company that’ll have to  

Ah, hindi iyon mahalaga, dahil ito ang iyong kompanya ng seguro na

cover this damage. And looking at the state  of my car, I would say it’s a write off. 

sasagot sa pinsalang ito. At sa pagtingin sa estado ng aking sasakyan, masasabi kong ito ay isang write off.

Okay. So, she says, “Your insurance  company will have to cover the damage.” 

Sige. Kaya, sabi niya, "Kailangang sakupin ng iyong kompanya ng seguro ang pinsala."

“To cover something” when we're  talking about finance bills, means pay. 

Ang ibig sabihin ng “to cover something” kapag pinag-uusapan natin ay ang mga bayarin sa pananalapi.

So, if I say to you, you have to cover  this bill, you have to cover the cost  

Kaya, kung sasabihin ko sa iyo, kailangan mong sagutin ang bayarin na ito, kailangan mong bayaran ang halaga

of this damage. I'm saying you have to pay. If we go for dinner or for lunch, and I say,  

ng pinsalang ito. Ang sabi ko kailangan mong magbayad. Kung pupunta tayo para sa hapunan o para sa tanghalian, at sasabihin ko,

“Don't worry, I'm covering this.”  I'm saying I'm going to pay for this. 

"Huwag mag-alala, saklaw ko ito." Ang sabi ko babayaran ko ito.

Then she also went on to say, “I  would say that my car is a write off.” 

Pagkatapos ay sinabi rin niya, "Sasabihin ko na ang aking kotse ay isang write-off."

“A write off” is, referring to a vehicle,  saying it's too badly damaged, to be repaired.  

Ang “sulating off” ay, tumutukoy sa isang sasakyan, na nagsasabi na ito ay masyadong nasira, upang ayusin.

So, if you say a car is a write  off, it cannot be repaired,  

Kaya, kung sasabihin mong ang isang kotse ay isang write off, hindi ito maaaring ayusin,

the damage is too extensive. And you  should just buy a new car, basically.

ang pinsala ay masyadong malawak. At dapat bumili ka lang ng bagong kotse, talaga.

A write off? I don’t think so. You have  a broken head-light and a few scratches.

Isang write off? Sa tingin ko ay hindi. Mayroon kang sirang head-light at ilang mga gasgas.

No, the speed at which you ran into me, there  is definitely going to be underlying damage.

Hindi, ang bilis mong bumangga sa akin, tiyak na magkakaroon ng underlying damage.

“To run into someone” it means to  collide with a person or with something. 

Ang ibig sabihin ng “to run into someone” ay ang pagbangga sa isang tao o sa isang bagay.

Here obviously they're talking about  their cars even though they refer to the..  

Dito obviously they're talking about their cars even though they refer to the..

that she refers to it as you run into me.  But what she meant is you ran into my car. 

that she refers to it as you run into me. Pero ang ibig niyang sabihin ay sumakay ka sa kotse ko.

I was in the car you ran into me in my  car. So, it means the cars have collided,  

Nasa kotse ako nabangga mo ako sa kotse ko. So, ibig sabihin nagbanggaan yung mga sasakyan,

they've ran into each other. You can also use this  

nasagasaan na nila. Maaari mo ring gamitin ito

to talk about meeting someone by  accident in town or anywhere. If you  

upang pag-usapan ang tungkol sa pagkikita ng isang tao nang hindi sinasadya sa bayan o kahit saan. Kung sakaling

happen to collide with someone even  if it's not completely physical,  

may makabangga ka kahit hindi ganap na pisikal,

but you just come up to them and go, “Oh, hello.  What are you doing here? Fancy running into you  

pero lalapitan mo lang siya at sasabihin, “Oh, hello. Anong ginagawa mo dito? Gusto mo bang mabangga ka

here at the supermarket? That's interesting.  I haven't seen you for ages. How are you?” 

dito sa supermarket? Interesting yan. Ilang taon na kitang hindi nakikita. Kumusta ka?"

It's very similar “to bump into” another phrasal  verb “to bump into” and “to run into”. Both mean  

Ito ay halos kapareho ng "upang makabangga" sa isa pang pariralang pandiwa "upang makabunggo" at "mabangga". Parehong ibig sabihin

to kind of collide, accidentally meet. But ‘run’  definitely has more of a hit feeling to it. So,  

ng uri ng banggaan, hindi sinasadyang magkita. Ngunit ang 'tumakbo' ay tiyak na may higit na hit na pakiramdam dito. Kaya,

you run into someone. Especially when  talking about cars. It means to collide. 

may nabangga ka. Lalo na kapag pinag-uusapan ang mga kotse. Ang ibig sabihin ay mabangga.

“Are you trying to scam me?  Did you do this on purpose?” 

“Sinusubukan mo ba akong lokohin? Sinasadya mo ba ito?"

“Scam you? What do you take me for? I’m not  gonna stand here and let you abuse me like that.  

“Scam ka? Ano ang kinukuha mo sa akin? Hindi ako tatayo dito at hahayaan mo akong abusuhin ng ganyan.

Give me your insurance details and get lost.” Okay? “What do you take me for?” She said,  

Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong mga detalye ng insurance at mawala ka." Sige? “Ano ang dala mo sa akin?” Sinabi niya,

“What do you take me for?” This means what sort of person  

"Ano ang gagawin mo sa akin?" Ibig sabihin anong klaseng tao

do you think I am? You're basically telling  the person who you're talking to that they've..  

ako sa tingin mo? Talagang sinasabi mo sa taong kausap mo na sila ay..

they've got it all wrong. They've misjudged you. What do you take me for? This is always used in  

nagkakamali sila. Napagkamalan ka nila. Ano ang kinukuha mo sa akin? Ito ay palaging ginagamit sa

a kind of disagreement. So, you take  offense at something that someone said. 

isang uri ng hindi pagkakasundo. Kaya, na-offend ka sa isang bagay na sinabi ng isang tao.

“Who do you think I am? What do you take me  for? You think I'm a con artist? How dare you?” 

“Sino ako sa tingin mo? Ano ang kinukuha mo sa akin? Sa tingin mo ako ay isang con artist? How dare you?”

Okay? And then at the end, she  said, “Get lost”, “Get lost.” 

Sige? At pagkatapos ay sa dulo, sinabi niya, "Maligaw", "Maligaw."

What she's saying there is “Go away”, “Leave  me alone.” It's... Yeah, it's a... it's a  

Ang sinasabi niya doon ay "Umalis ka", "Iwan mo ako." Ito ay... Oo, ito ay isang... ito ay isang

lightly offensive phrase. You wouldn't tell your  boss to get lost because you might get a sack. 

bahagyang nakakasakit na parirala. Hindi mo sasabihin sa amo mo na magwala dahil baka ma-sako ka.

You wouldn't tell anyone at work to get lost.  You can use it jokingly with a friend or someone  

Hindi mo sasabihin sa sinuman sa trabaho na mawala. Maaari mo itong gamitin nang pabiro sa isang kaibigan o isang taong

you're very friendly with. But you have to  be very careful if it's someone at work and  

napakakaibigan mo. Ngunit kailangan mong maging lubhang maingat kung ito ay isang tao sa trabaho at

actually with anyone telling someone to get  lost might upset them. But there are other  

talagang sa sinumang nagsasabi sa isang tao na mawala ay maaaring magalit sa kanila. Ngunit may iba pang

much more offensive versions of “get  lost”. But that's a very, very light one. 

mas nakakasakit na mga bersyon ng "mawala". Ngunit iyon ay isang napaka, napakagaan.

“Well can I at least see your driving license.”

"Maaari ko bang makita ang iyong lisensya sa pagmamaneho."

“No! Who do you think you are? Give me your  details now or I will call the police.”

"Hindi! Sino ka sa tingin mo? Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong mga detalye ngayon o tatawag ako ng pulis."

Okay, she says, “Who do you think you are?” Now this is a way of telling someone that  

Okay, sabi niya, "Sino ka sa tingin mo?" Ngayon ito ay isang paraan ng pagsasabi sa isang tao na

they are conceited or entitled. It's another way of saying, “How dare you?  

sila ay mapagmataas o may karapatan. Ito ay isa pang paraan ng pagsasabi, “How dare you?

You think you're so special? You think you're  up there, high status? And I'm down here?  

Sa tingin mo napakaespesyal mo? Sa tingin mo nasa taas ka, mataas ang status? At nandito ako sa baba?

Who do you think you are? You're not up there.  You're the same as me. You're below me maybe.” 

Sino ka sa tingin mo? Wala ka sa taas. Pareho ka sa akin. Baka nasa ibaba mo ako.”

Okay, so it's another way of having a dig, and  telling them that they are out of line, that they  

Okay, kaya isa pang paraan ng paghukay, at pagsasabi sa kanila na wala na sila sa linya, na

are overstepping the mark. There's lots of phrases  here I'm throwing at you. But they what they're  

lumalampas sila sa marka. Maraming mga parirala dito ang ibinabato ko sa iyo. Pero

saying is unacceptable. Basically, unacceptable. “Who do you think you are?”

hindi katanggap-tanggap ang mga sinasabi nila. Talaga, hindi katanggap-tanggap. “Sino ka sa tingin mo?”

“You’re not insured, are you?”

"Hindi ka nakaseguro, di ba?"

“It’s none of your business.  Give me what I’ve asked for.” 

“It's none of your business. Ibigay mo sa akin ang hinihiling ko.”

It's none of your business. This is a very  common expression that you use when you don't  

Ito ay wala sa iyong negosyo. Ito ay isang napaka-karaniwang expression na ginagamit mo kapag ayaw

want to share information with someone.  So, it's definitely a little bit harsh. 

mong magbahagi ng impormasyon sa isang tao. Kaya, ito ay tiyak na medyo malupit.

So, if someone asks you, oh, how was your  weekend, and you don't want to talk about  

Kaya, kung may magtanong sa iyo, o, kumusta ang iyong katapusan ng linggo, at ayaw mong pag-usapan

it, but they are a nice person,  and you don't want to upset them?  

ito, ngunit mabait silang tao, at ayaw mong magalit sila?

I wouldn't say to them, “It's none of your  business,” because they might feel a bit  

Hindi ko sasabihin sa kanila na, “It's none of your business,” dahil baka mabigla sila

taken aback by that. They might be a  bit surprised if you use that phrase. 

doon. Maaaring medyo magulat sila kung gagamitin mo ang pariralang iyon.

In that situation, I just say, oh, I’m  sorry, I don't want to talk about it.  

Sa ganoong sitwasyon, sasabihin ko lang, naku, pasensya na, ayoko nang pag-usapan.

But if you want to be a little bit cutting  a bit direct, and you don't mind maybe  

Ngunit kung gusto mong medyo mag-cut nang kaunti nang direkta, at hindi mo iniisip na baka

upsetting them a little, you say, it's none  of your business! Back off! Leave me alone! 

magalit sila ng kaunti, sasabihin mo, wala kang kinalaman! Lumayo ka! Iwanan mo akong mag-isa!

“Let’s call the police, shall we? I am sure  they will happily assist in this situation.”

“Tumawag tayo ng pulis ha? Sigurado akong matutuwa silang tutulong sa sitwasyong ito.”

“Oh, for Pete’s sake, WILL YOU STOP!!!”

“Oh, alang-alang kay Pete, TUMIGIL KA BA!!!”

Okay. “For Pete’s sake” There are many versions  

Sige. “For Pete's sake” Maraming bersyon

of this expression that you can use. This is a  very family friendly version. There are other  

ng expression na ito na magagamit mo. Ito ay isang napaka-pamilyar na bersyon. Mayroong iba pang mga

versions that are a bit more crude, rude and  offensive using swear words in place of ‘Pete’.  

bersyon na medyo mas krudo, bastos at nakakasakit gamit ang mga pagmumura sa halip na 'Pete'.

But “for Pete's sake” is just an expression  that we use when we're frustrated, or annoyed. 

Ngunit ang "para sa kapakanan ni Pete" ay isang ekspresyon lamang na ginagamit natin kapag tayo ay bigo, o naiinis.

“Oh, for Pete's sake, I forgot my purse.” “Ah, for Pete's sake, I burnt the toast.” 

"Oh, alang-alang kay Pete, nakalimutan ko ang aking pitaka." "Ah, alang-alang kay Pete, sinunog ko ang toast."

“For Pete's sake, can you stop with  that music? It's giving me a headache.” 

“For Pete's sake, pwede bang tumigil ka na sa music na yan? Sumasakit ang ulo ko.”

Okay, so frustration or annoyance  would lead to that phrase.

Okay, kaya ang pagkabigo o inis ay hahantong sa pariralang iyon.

“No, I’m not insured. Are you happy now?”

“Hindi, hindi ako insured. Masaya ka na ba ngayon?"

Okay. “Are you happy now?” “Are you  happy now?” is a rhetorical question  

Sige. "Masaya ka na ba ngayon?" "Masaya ka na ba ngayon?" ay isang retorikal na tanong

that you use with a sarcastic tone. So, you know that they're probably  

na ginagamit mo nang may sarkastikong tono. Kaya, alam mo na malamang na

not going to be happy. Because you hear she's  admitted something that she's not proud of?  

hindi sila magiging masaya. Dahil mabalitaan mong inamin niya ang isang bagay na hindi niya ipinagmamalaki?

Or maybe you do something that you don't  want to do. And so, you look at them and go,  

O baka naman gumawa ka ng isang bagay na hindi mo gustong gawin. At kaya, tumingin ka sa kanila at pumunta,

“Are you happy now? Is that what you wanted?” And you know, it's not what they wanted. But  

"Masaya ka ba ngayon? Iyan ba ang gusto mo?” At alam mo, hindi ito ang gusto nila. Ngunit

again, it's just a way of having a dig. Are you  happy now? There? So, it's very sarcastic. Okay. 

muli, ito ay isang paraan lamang ng pagkakaroon ng paghuhukay. Masaya ka na ba ngayon? doon? So, sobrang sarcastic. Sige.

So it might be that my partner and I have  a disagreement about whether to give my son  

Kaya baka may hindi pagkakasundo kami ng partner ko kung bibigyan ko ba ng

ice cream or not. And I say don't give him  ice cream because he will be up all night,  

ice cream ang anak ko o hindi. At sabi ko wag mo siyang bibigyan ng ice cream dahil magdamag siya,

or it will make him hyperactive. We have an argument and my partner says,  

baka maging hyperactive siya. Nag-away kami at sabi ng partner ko,

“No, give him ice cream.” An I go, “Fine!” I give him the ice cream. My son eats the ice  

“Hindi, bigyan mo siya ng ice cream.” At sabi ko, "Fine!" Binigay ko sa kanya yung ice cream. Ang aking anak na lalaki ay kumakain ng ice

cream and get so excited and hyperactive that he  throws up. And then he doesn't go to sleep until  

cream at nasasabik at hyperactive na siya ay sumuka. At pagkatapos ay hindi siya natutulog hanggang

midnight. And I say to my partner, “Are you happy  now? We gave him ice cream. Are you happy now?” 

hatinggabi. At sinasabi ko sa aking kapareha, “Masaya ka ba ngayon? Binigyan namin siya ng ice cream. Masaya ka na ba ngayon?"

Of course, my partner is not going to be happy  with the outcome. He made a bad decision. 

Syempre, hindi matutuwa ang partner ko sa kinalabasan. Maling desisyon ang ginawa niya.

“I just got out the nick  three weeks ago and I am...”

"Kakalabas ko lang ng nick tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan at ako ay..."

“The nick.” “The nick” is a slang term for prison.  So, she just got out of prison three weeks ago.

"Ang nick." Ang "nick" ay isang salitang balbal para sa bilangguan. Kaya, kalalabas lang niya sa kulungan tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan.

“... trying to get my life back  in order. This is my nan’s car,  

“... sinusubukang ibalik sa ayos ang buhay ko. This is my nan's car,

I can’t afford to get insurance but I..  I need to run some errands and move...”

I can't afford to get insurance but I.. I need to run some errands and move...”

She needs to run some errands. “To run errands”  means to do some jobs or chores. Errands would  

She needs to run some errands. Ang ibig sabihin ng “to run errands” ay gumawa ng ilang trabaho o gawain. Ang mga gawain

be things like having to post some letters.  So going to the post office to post a parcel,  

ay mga bagay tulad ng pag-post ng ilang mga liham. Kaya't ang pagpunta sa post office para mag-post ng parcel,

buy stamps, post some letters, maybe going  to the bank to open up a bank account.  

bumili ng mga selyo, mag-post ng ilang sulat, maaaring pumunta sa bangko para magbukas ng bank account.

Things that are like life administration, job.

Mga bagay na parang life administration, trabaho.

“... some stuff, so I just borrowed it for  today. And now this. My nan’s gonna kill me.”

“... some stuff, kaya hiniram ko na lang for today. At ngayon ito. Papatayin ako ng nanay ko."

“My nan’s gonna kill me.” This is a phrase meaning  

"Papatayin ako ng aking ina." Ito ay isang parirala na nangangahulugan

someone's going to be extremely angry  and upset with you. They're not actually  

na ang isang tao ay labis na magagalit at magagalit sa iyo. Hindi

going to physically kill you but they  are going to be angry with you. Okay? 

ka nila pisikal na papatayin ngunit magagalit sila sa iyo. Sige?

So, if I use my partner as an example, again.  If my partner did something that upset me,  

Kaya, kung gagamitin ko ang aking kapareha bilang isang halimbawa, muli. Kung may ginawa ang partner ko na ikinagalit ko,

and I got really angry, I might  say, “I'm going to kill him.” 

at talagang nagalit ako, baka sabihin kong, “Papatayin ko siya.”

I'm not actually going to murder him, I would  just shout at him and tell him that he's an idiot,  

Hindi ko naman talaga siya papatayin, sisigawan ko lang siya at sasabihin sa kanya na tulala siya,

and he shouldn't have done it. “Ok, well look, the damage doesn’t  

at hindi niya dapat ginawa iyon. “Ok, well tignan mo, hindi naman masyadong

seem extensive. I’m willing to hold off  calling the insurance company. We can...”

malawak yung damage. Handa akong ihinto ang pagtawag sa kompanya ng seguro. Kaya natin...”

Okay, so “hold off”, “hold off” means  also to stop to kind of wait and not  

Okay, kaya ang ibig sabihin ng “hold off”, “hold off” ay huminto sa uri ng paghihintay at hindi

do something you're intending to do. So, if I'm going to book some tickets  

gumawa ng isang bagay na balak mong gawin. Kaya, kung magbu-book ako ng ilang tiket

for a show in the theatre, and you say, “Wait,  I might not be able to come. So can you just  

para sa isang palabas sa teatro, at sasabihin mong, “Teka lang, baka hindi ako makapunta. Kaya pwede bang ihinto mo na lang ang

hold off booking those tickets till tomorrow,  and I can tell you for sure if I can come.” 

pag-book ng mga tiket na iyon hanggang bukas, at masasabi ko sa iyo nang sigurado kung makakapunta ako.”

“Okay.” So then I will  

"Sige." Kaya pagkatapos ay

hold off booking those tickets. Okay, so it's,  in a sense, it's waiting, just like “hold on”.  

ipagpaliban ko ang pag-book ng mga tiket. Okay, so it's, in a sense, naghihintay, parang "hold on".

But this is waiting on an action  that you are intending to do.

Ngunit ito ay naghihintay sa isang aksyon na balak mong gawin.

“... see what the repairs are and  figure out who should cover what.”

“... tingnan kung ano ang mga pag-aayos at alamin kung sino ang dapat sakupin kung ano.”

“Figure out.” “To figure something out” is to  

“Alamin mo.” "Upang malaman ang isang bagay" ay upang

solve a problem or find the best way of doing  something. It’s very similar to “work out”. 

malutas ang isang problema o hanapin ang pinakamahusay na paraan ng paggawa ng isang bagay. Ito ay halos kapareho ng "mag-ehersisyo".

“I'm going to figure out how I'm going to pay  this bill. Because I don't have the money. So,  

“Pag-iisipan ko kung paano ko babayaran itong bill. Dahil wala akong pera. Kaya,

I need to figure out how to pay this bill.” “I don't know how to break the news to my mum  

kailangan kong malaman kung paano babayaran ang bill na ito." “Hindi ko alam kung paano sasabihin sa mama ko

that we are moving out. But I'll  figure out what to say to her later.” 

na lilipat na kami. Pero mamaya ko na lang malalaman kung ano ang sasabihin ko sa kanya."

So, I will solve that problem. I'll  think through it and find the best  

Kaya, solusyunan ko ang problemang iyon. Pag-iisipan ko ito at hahanapin ang pinakamahusay na

solution. So, “to figure something out”. And she said figure out who should cover  

solusyon. Kaya, "upang malaman ang isang bagay". At sinabi niyang alamin kung sino ang dapat mag-cover

what. Remember “to cover” means  to pay for in this situation. 

kung ano. Tandaan ang ibig sabihin ng “to cover” ay magbayad para sa sitwasyong ito.

So, I'll figure out who should pay for  what, in terms of the damage to the cars.

Kaya, aalamin ko kung sino ang dapat magbayad para sa kung ano, sa mga tuntunin ng pinsala sa mga kotse.

“I haven’t got two pennies to rub together mate.” Oh, she hasn't got two pennies to rub together.  

"Wala akong dalawang sentimos upang kuskusin pare." Oh, wala siyang dalawang sentimos upang ipagsama-sama.

This is a phrase that means “I'm  poor”. I've got no money. I don't have  

Ito ay isang parirala na nangangahulugang "Ako ay mahirap". Wala akong pera. Wala akong

two pennies to rub together. So, I've got no money whatsoever. 

dalawang sentimos para kuskusin. Kaya lang, wala akong pera.

“I had three interviews as soon as I was released  and all of them rejected me cos of my record.” 

"Mayroon akong tatlong panayam sa sandaling ako ay inilabas at lahat sila ay tinanggihan ako dahil sa aking rekord."

“All of them rejected me because of my record.” So here, we know she's been in the nick.  

"Lahat sila ay tinanggihan ako dahil sa aking rekord." Kaya dito, alam namin na siya ay nasa nick.

Prison. And she's served time. So, she's been in prison for a length of time.  

bilangguan. At nagsilbi siya ng oras. Kaya, matagal na siyang nakakulong.

Now she has a criminal record. Often this  is just shortened to “record”. “My record”,  

Ngayon ay mayroon na siyang criminal record. Kadalasan ito ay pinaikli lamang sa "record". “Aking talaan”,

“It's on my record”, “I've got a record”. Obviously, context is key.

“Ito ay nasa aking talaan”, “Mayroon akong talaan”. Malinaw, ang konteksto ay susi.

“If you are willing to do some heavy lifting then  there may be a position at my company you could  

"Kung handa kang gumawa ng ilang mabigat na pag-aangat, maaaring mayroong isang posisyon sa aking kumpanya na maaari mong

take. But, I really would need to see some  proper ID before I consider employing you.”

kunin. Pero, kailangan ko talagang makakita ng tamang ID bago ko isaalang-alang na gamitin ka."

Okay, “ID” just means your identification. We rarely say before word identification.  

Okay, ang ibig sabihin ng "ID" ay ang iyong pagkakakilanlan. Bihira nating sabihin bago ang pagkakakilanlan ng salita.

We often shorten it simply to ID. “Have you got any ID?” 

Madalas natin itong pinaikli sa ID. "May ID ka ba?"

“Can I see some ID please?” “That’s…umm, amazing. Thank you. I’m so sorry  

"Pwede ba akong makakita ng ID?" “Iyan ay…umm, kamangha-mangha. Salamat. I'm so sorry

for acting like an arse before, I just panicked.” “I'm so sorry for acting like an arse”,  

for acting like an ass before, nag-panic lang ako." “I'm so sorry for acting like an asno”,

“for acting like an ass”. And “arse” again is a  

“for acting like an ass”. At ang "arse" muli ay isang

slightly offensive or very lightly offensive  word. It is one of our lower level swear words. 

bahagyang nakakasakit o napakagaan na nakakasakit na salita. Ito ay isa sa aming mas mababang antas ng pagmumura.

You wouldn't want a child saying “arse”  but you wouldn't be too offended if you  

Hindi mo gugustuhin na ang isang bata ay nagsasabi ng "arse" ngunit hindi ka masyadong masasaktan kung

heard an adult saying “arse” and “to  be an arse” is just to be an idiot. 

narinig mo ang isang nasa hustong gulang na nagsasabing "arse" at "maging arse" ay para lang maging tanga.

So, she said I'm sorry for  acting like an idiot earlier. 

So, she said I'm sorry for acting like an idiot kanina.

“That’s ok. My name’s Anna by the way.” “My name is Anna, by the way.”

“Okay lang yan. Anna pala ang pangalan ko.” "Ang pangalan ko pala ay Anna."

So, “by the way”, is used to introduce information  

Kaya, "nga pala", ay ginagamit upang ipakilala ang impormasyon

that's not directly linked  to what's being discussed. 

na hindi direktang naka-link sa kung ano ang tinatalakay.

So here they're talking about how they're going  to solve the problem with the car collision. 

Kaya eto pinag-uusapan nila kung paano nila lulutasin ang problema sa banggaan ng sasakyan.

And Anna's offered this girl a potential job to  help her out of her difficult life situation. 

At inalok ni Anna ang batang babae na ito ng isang potensyal na trabaho upang matulungan siya sa kanyang mahirap na sitwasyon sa buhay.

So then to suddenly say, “My name is Anna.”  It's completely unrelated to having a...  

Kaya't biglang sabihin, "Ang pangalan ko ay Anna." Ito ay ganap na walang kaugnayan sa pagkakaroon ng...

offering a job and sorting out a car crash. So that's unrelated information. So, you'd use  

nag-aalok ng trabaho at pag-aayos ng isang aksidente sa sasakyan. Kaya iyon ay hindi nauugnay na impormasyon. Kaya, gagamitin mo

“by the way” to show, “I realize this  is unrelated, but you should know this”. 

ang "nga pala" upang ipakita ang, "Napagtanto kong hindi ito nauugnay, ngunit dapat mong malaman ito."

So, let's say we're talking  about going for lunch tomorrow. 

Kaya, sabihin nating pag-uusapan natin ang pagpunta sa tanghalian bukas.

“Oh yeah, let's go for lunch  tomorrow. Where do you want to go?” 

“Oh yeah, lunch tayo bukas. Saan mo gustong pumunta?"

“Oh, there's a lovely little  cafe down by the river.” 

“Oh, may magandang maliit na cafe sa tabi ng ilog.”

“That sounds great. By the way, tomorrow is mum's  birthday, we must get her a card and a present.” 

“Parang maganda iyan. Bukas pala birthday ni mama, dapat bigyan natin siya ng card at regalo.”

So, you see that information is completely  unrelated. But by saying, “by the way”,  

Kaya, nakikita mo na ang impormasyon ay ganap na walang kaugnayan. Ngunit sa pagsasabing, “nga pala”,

you are showing, I'm going to  tell you something else now. 

nagpapakita ka, may iba akong sasabihin sa iyo ngayon.

I realize it's unrelated. But I need to get this  in. It's important information for you to know. 

Napagtanto ko na ito ay walang kaugnayan. Ngunit kailangan kong ipasok ito. Mahalagang impormasyon ito para malaman mo.

You can use “by the way”, before  the statement that's unrelated. 

Maaari mong gamitin ang "nga pala", bago ang pahayag na walang kaugnayan.

Or you can use it after the statement. Okay, so in this example, I said,  

O maaari mo itong gamitin pagkatapos ng pahayag. Okay, kaya sa halimbawang ito, sinabi ko,

“My name is Anna, by the way.” But I could have said,  

"Ang pangalan ko pala ay Anna." Pero masasabi kong,

“By the way, my name is Anna”. Okay, so it could come before or after.

"Nga pala, Anna ang pangalan ko". Okay, kaya maaari itong dumating bago o pagkatapos.

“Jackie. It’s nice to meet you, Anna. I guess  you could say, I was lucky to bump into you.”

“Jackie. Ikinagagalak kitang makilala, Anna. I guess you could say, I was lucky to bump in you.”

Now, she made a joke here. She  physically bumped into her car. 

Ngayon, nagbiro siya dito. Siya ay pisikal na nabangga sa kanyang kotse.

So, they had a bump, we would talk about a  bump, “Oh I had a little bump in the car today.” 

So, nagkaroon sila ng bump, we would talk about a bump, "Naku may bump ako sa kotse ngayon."

If you had a minor car crash.  Minor, like a teeny tiny no damage,  

Kung nagkaroon ka ng menor de edad na pagbangga ng kotse. Maliit, parang maliit na maliit na walang pinsala,

really just a little bump, like  I might bump into the wall. Oops.  

talagang isang maliit na bukol, na para akong mauntog sa pader. Oops.

Happens sometimes when you're parking in a  tight space, you might have a little bump. 

Nangyayari minsan kapag pumarada ka sa isang masikip na lugar, maaaring magkaroon ka ng kaunting bukol.

If you bang yourself, you might bump yourself  on the head or get a little bump on the knee. 

Kung pukpok mo ang iyong sarili, maaari mong mauntog ang iyong sarili sa ulo o magkaroon ng kaunting bukol sa tuhod.

So, it means a collision that's minor. Now “to bump into someone” I mentioned this  

So, ibig sabihin, maliit lang ang banggaan. Ngayon, "to bump into someone" Nabanggit ko itong

earlier common phrasal verb meaning “to meet  someone by chance”, but you don't necessarily  

mas naunang karaniwang phrasal verb na nangangahulugang "to meet someone by chance", pero hindi mo

actually bump into them. You just, “Oh, hello! Fancy seeing you here.” 

naman talaga sila makakabangga. Ikaw lang, “Oh, hello! Gusto kitang makita dito."

The same as “run into someone”. “Oh, I ran into  

Kapareho ng "bumangga sa isang tao". "Naku, naabutan ko

my old school friend at the post office.” 

ang dati kong kaibigan sa paaralan sa post office."

So, “bump into”, “run into” and obviously here  she's doing a play on words. She said I was lucky  

Kaya, "bump into", "run into" at halatang dito siya naglalaro ng mga salita. Sabi niya, swerte daw ako

to bump into you. I was lucky to bump into you. Physically she was lucky to meet that person by  

na nabangga kita. Maswerte akong nabangga kita. Sa pisikal na paraan ay masuwerte siyang nakilala ang taong iyon kapag

chance and the cars colliding. I  was lucky to hit your car today. 

nagkataon at nagbanggaan ang mga sasakyan. Maswerte akong nabangga ko ang kotse mo ngayon.

Right? It's your turn. You will first  read the part of Anna so let's go.

tama? Ikaw na. Babasahin mo muna yung part ni Anna kaya tara na.

“You stupid idiot! Why didn’t  you look where you were going?”

“Ang tanga mo! Bakit hindi ka tumingin sa dinadaanan mo?"

“So, you should be, look at what you’ve done!”

"Kaya, dapat, tingnan mo ang ginawa mo!"

“This is a car park, I was  simply reversing out of my space,  

"Ito ay isang paradahan ng kotse, tumalikod lang ako sa aking espasyo,

you should have given me some room instead  of trying to zip past like a maniac.”

dapat ay binigyan mo ako ng ilang silid sa halip na subukang mag-zip sa nakaraan na parang baliw."

“Oh, move out of my way, I need to photograph this  scene as evidence. You better have insurance.”

“Oh, umalis ka na, kailangan kong kunan ng larawan ang eksenang ito bilang ebidensya. Mas mabuting may insurance ka."

“Ah, that’s not important, as it will be  your insurance company that’ll have to  

“Ah, hindi naman importante iyon, dahil ito ang iyong kompanya ng seguro na

cover this damage. And looking at the state  of my car, I would say it’s a write off.”

sasagot sa pinsalang ito. At sa pagtingin sa estado ng aking kotse, masasabi kong ito ay isang write off.

“No, the speed at which you ran into me, there  is definitely going to be underlying damage.”

"Hindi, ang bilis mong bumangga sa akin, tiyak na magkakaroon ng underlying damage."

“Scam you? What do you take me for? I’m not  gonna stand here and let you abuse me like that.  

“Scam ka? Ano ang kinukuha mo sa akin? Hindi ako tatayo dito at hahayaan mo akong abusuhin ng ganyan.

Give me your insurance details and get lost.”

Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong mga detalye ng insurance at mawala ka."

“There’s my card, my name  and number’s on the back.”

"Nandiyan ang card ko, ang pangalan ko at numero ay nasa likod."

“Give me your details and I can pass any  additional information you need via email.”

"Ibigay sa akin ang iyong mga detalye at maipapasa ko ang anumang karagdagang impormasyon na kailangan mo sa pamamagitan ng email."

“No! Who do you think you are? Give me your  details now or I will call the police.”

"Hindi! Sino ka sa tingin mo? Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong mga detalye ngayon o tatawag ako ng pulis."

“It’s none of your business.  Give me what I’ve asked for.”

“It's none of your business. Ibigay mo sa akin ang hinihiling ko.”

“Oh,  

“Naku,

for Pete’s sake, WILL YOU STOP!!! No, I’m not insured. Are you happy now?  

alang-alang kay Pete, TIGILAN MO BA!!! Hindi, hindi ako nakaseguro. Masaya ka na ba ngayon?

Look, I just got out the nick three weeks ago  and I am trying to get my life back in order.  

Tingnan mo, kakalabas ko lang ng nick tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan at sinisikap kong ayusin ang buhay ko.

This is my nan’s car, I can’t afford to get  insurance but I.. I need to run some errands  

This is my nan's car, I can't afford to get insurance but I.. I need to run some errands

and move some stuff, so I just borrowed it for  today. And now this. My nan’s gonna kill me.”

and move some stuff, kaya hiniram ko na lang for today. At ngayon ito. Papatayin ako ng nanay ko."

“I haven’t got two pennies to rub together mate.  

“Wala akong dalawang sentimos upang kuskusin pare.

I had three interviews as soon as I was released  and all of them rejected me cos of my record.”

Nagkaroon ako ng tatlong panayam pagka-release ko at lahat sila ay tinanggihan ako dahil sa aking record.”

“That’s…umm, amazing. Thank you. I’m so sorry  for acting like an arse before, I just panicked.”

“Iyan ay…umm, kamangha-mangha. Salamat. I'm so sorry for acting like an ass before, nag-panic lang ako."

“Jackie. It’s nice to meet you, Anna. I guess  you could say, I was lucky to bump into you.”

“Jackie. Ikinagagalak kitang makilala, Anna. I guess you could say, I was lucky to bump in you.”

Awesome. Now let's swap roles. You are now  playing the Jack or Jackie character. Let's go

Kahanga-hanga. Ngayon, magpalit tayo ng mga tungkulin. Ginagampanan mo na ngayon ang karakter na Jack o Jackie. Tara na

“You have got to be kidding me!”

“You have got to be kidding me!”

“I’m sorry!?”

"Ako ay humihingi ng paumanhin!?"

“No, hang on a minute. You were the one  who wasn’t looking; you drove into me.”

“Hindi, sandali lang. Ikaw ang hindi tumitingin; pinasok mo ako."

“I wasn’t driving like a maniac; I was barely  doing 10 mph. Beside I had right of way.”

“Hindi ako nagmamaneho na parang baliw; Halos 10 mph ang ginagawa ko. Sa tabi ay mayroon akong right of way."

“Look, you don’t need to be so rude.  Regardless of who is at fault here,  

“Tingnan mo, hindi mo kailangang maging bastos. Hindi alintana kung sino ang may kasalanan dito,

it was an accident. Have a little respect please.  And yes, of course I have insurance. Do you?”

ito ay isang aksidente. Magkaroon ng kaunting paggalang. And yes, syempre may insurance ako. ikaw ba?”

“A write off? I don’t think so. You have  a broken head-light and a few scratches.”

"Isang write off? Sa tingin ko ay hindi. Sirang head-light mo at may kaunting gasgas.”

“Are you trying to scam me?  Did you do this on purpose?”

“Sinusubukan mo ba akong lokohin? Sinasadya mo ba ito?"

“You give me your details first.”

"Ibigay mo muna ang mga detalye mo."

“And what about your insurance details?”

"At paano naman ang mga detalye ng iyong insurance?"

“Well can I at least see your driving license.”

"Maaari ko bang makita ang iyong lisensya sa pagmamaneho."

“You’re not insured, are you?”

"Hindi ka nakaseguro, di ba?"

"Let’s call the police, shall we? I am sure  they will happily assist in this situation.”

"Tawagan natin ang pulis, di ba? I'm sure they will happily assist in this situation."

“Ok, well look, the damage doesn’t seem extensive.  I’m willing to hold off calling the insurance

“That’s ok. My name’s Anna by the way.”

"Okay lang. Anna nga pala ang pangalan ko."
