Day 72: The Package Came During My Shower

At home in San Luis Potosí, Ivonne (A) tells her older brother Jacobo (B) about the package she has been waiting for.

How to study this lesson 3 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Point at (or tap) a Spanish word to see what it means.
  3. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Spanish, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

    ¡Qué mala suerte! Me estaba bañando cuando tocó el repartidor.

    What bad luck! I was in the shower when the delivery man rang the bell.

  2. B

    ¿Y no te dejó el paquete?

    And didn't he leave you the package?

  3. A

    No, nada más una nota. Y tú, ¿dónde estabas?

    No, just a note. And where were you?

  4. B

    En mi cuarto, pero estaba durmiendo. No oí nada.

    In my room, but I was asleep. I didn't hear a thing.

  5. A

    Pues el repartidor regresa mañana. Si estás, lo recibes tú, pero despierto, ¿eh?

    Well, the delivery man is coming back tomorrow. If you're in, you can take it, but awake this time, OK?
