1. DIALOGUE Ω disk 1-02

Listen to the dialogue and note the numbered expressions.

(meeting a business colleague for the first time in a hotel lobby)

 

Mr. Ono: Excuse me, you wouldn't happen to be Mr. Davis, would you?1

Mr. Davis: Why yes, I am.2 You must be Mr. Ono of Tokyo Textiles.

 

Mr. Ono: Yes, that's right. It's a pleasure to meet you,3 sir.4

(they shake hands)

 

Mr. Davis: It's a pleasure to meet you, too. Let me give you one of my business cards. Here you go....5

Mr. Ono: Oh, thank you. Please...here is one of mine also.

 

Mr. Davis: Thank you.

 

Mr. Ono: I hope you weren't waiting long.6

Mr. Davis: No, not at all. I just arrived myself a few moments before you did…7 Ah, I see you are the Senior Sales Representative for the Midwest Division.

 

Mr. Ono: Yes. As you can see on my card, our regional office is based in Indianapolis, Indiana. This is my third year to work at that office. By the way,8 thank you very much for agreeing to meet me here today.

 

Mr. Davis: No,9 it's my pleasure. I am glad that our schedules allowed us the opportunity to meet up10 today.

 

1 Excuse me, you wouldn't happen to be Mr. Davis, would you? = this is a very polite way to ask a stranger who he/she is if you are unsure; the tag question makes it more polite, [e.g. A: Pardon me, you wouldn't happen to know a Ms. Straber, would you? B: Yes. That's her standing over there...next to the door.]

 

2 Why yes, I am. = the 'why' used here is not a question, but a conjunction used as a filler word in his initial response, [e.g. A: Are you going to the opera tomorrow? B: Why yes, I am. Why do you ask?]

 

3 It's a pleasure to meet you. = this phrase is used when meeting someone for the first time. Also, people will often say: "It's nice to meet you." The person responding says: "It's a pleasure to meet you, too." (or "It's nice to meet you, too.")

 

4 sir = this is the polite way to address a gentleman (especially if he is older than you). When addressing a woman, the polite address is: Ma'am.

 

5 Here you go... = this phrase is often said when handing something to someone, [e.g. A: May I borrow a piece of paper? B: Sure. Here you go.]

 

6 I hope you weren't waiting long. = Since Mr. Ono had asked Mr. Davis to meet him, and because he arrived after Mr. Davis did, he used this phrase to show his concern for perhaps wasting Mr. Davis' time.

 

7 No, not at all. I just arrived myself a few moments before you did. = Mr. Davis replied with this phrase to help put Mr. Ono at ease. It is likely that Mr. Ono was on time, but Mr. Davis was early. Since Mr. Davis wasn't angry, he responded in a friendly manner and made an explanation to Mr. Ono.

 

8 By the way... = Mr. Ono politely wanted to shift the direction of the conversation from him back to Mr. Davis by introducing a new topic; in this case, he wished to thank Mr. Davis for meeting him. [e.g. A: It's been a long time since we have met. B; It has been a long time. By the way, are you free for lunch tomorrow?]

 

9 No,... = this 'no' is placed here to say: "No, you don't have to thank me...it's my pleasure." Often, English speakers will shorten their utterances when the intention of the words is clearly understood.

 

10 to meet up = when a scheduled meeting is set in advance, often people will use this phrase to refer to the meeting rather than just saying simply 'to meet.' [e.g. It was so nice to meet up with my old high school friends at the reunion.]
