0:00.0	Welcome back to Coffee Break Spanish. It's lesson 30. You're going through 30 lessons
0:16.0	of Spanish. The first 10 lessons looked at making friends, getting to know people using
0:20.4	your Spanish to do so. And then lessons 11 to 30 have really been transactional language.
0:25.4	The kind of phrases, words and phrases that you need for a vacation in a Spanish-speaking
0:30.4	country. Now, lesson 30 is a little bit different. It was originally recorded in Glasgow
0:36.7	during the Urefa Cup final, which was being played out between two Spanish teams and
0:42.7	thousands of Spanishers descended on the city of Glasgow. So we hope you enjoy this lesson,
0:47.6	slightly different from usual. Nonetheless, we hope you enjoy it and find it useful.
0:55.5	Now, the first part of today's lesson is listening to some conversations that I recorded
1:02.9	the night of the Urefa Cup final in Glasgow. This was between Seville and Espanyol, two teams
1:10.0	from Spain. Now, I want you to remember that I was recording this in the street on a very,
1:16.8	very wet Wednesday evening. And obviously, the conversations are going to be at natural speed.
1:22.7	This is quite a challenge for you, especially if you've only been doing Spanish for a little while,
1:27.7	but hopefully you'll see that you'll recognize some words and that you'll be able to understand
1:33.2	the gist of some of the conversations. We're going to begin with the first conversation. I'll let you
1:38.6	hear it first and just see how much you can understand for the first time. It's very short. Let's see
1:46.0	how much you understand. How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you? How are you?
1:50.0	I'm fine. Where are you from? I'm from Sevilla. I'm fine. Tell me one thing. Who are you going to
1:55.0	win this afternoon? Well, I don't think so. I think you're going to win Sevilla as 12 or 13-0, more or less.
2:03.9	Okay, so that was probably quite a challenge. I began by saying, how are you? Which, of course,
2:10.2	no means how are you? And the person replied very well. I then asked two more questions. Listen to
2:17.2	these. How are you? Very well. How are you? David. Where are you from? I'm from Sevilla.
