🗺️ Giving directions (A2)
A woman asks for help and a man gives clear directions to the City Art Museum (street, traffic lights, park, roundabout, second exit, across from).
Man & Woman
Excuse me, can you help me, please? I think I’m lost.
Sure. Where do you need to go?
I need to get to the City Art Museum. I’m staying at the Blue Star Hotel, and I walked for ten minutes, but now I’m not sure.
No problem. You’re quite close. Are you walking or taking a bus?
I prefer walking if it’s not too far.
It’s about fifteen minutes on foot. First, go straight along this street.
Okay, straight.
Yes. Walk past the supermarket on your left and the small bakery on your right.
Supermarket left, bakery right.
Right. After that, you will see traffic lights. At the traffic lights, turn left.
Turn left at the traffic lights. Got it.
Then walk straight for about five minutes. You’ll pass a park.
Is the park on the left or the right?
The park will be on your right. Keep walking until you come to a big roundabout.
A roundabout… okay.
At the roundabout, take the second exit. That means you go almost straight.
Second exit, almost straight.
Exactly. After you take the second exit, you’ll see a long street with cafés.
That sounds nice.
Yes, it’s a busy area. Walk for two more minutes and look for a tall grey building with a glass entrance. That’s the museum.
Great! Is it across from something?
Yes, it’s across from a bookshop called “Green Pages.” You can’t miss it.
Perfect. Let me check: straight, left at the traffic lights, past the park, second exit at the roundabout, and then the museum across from the bookshop.
That’s right. If you want, you can also take bus number 12 from the hotel, but walking is easier today.
Thank you so much. You explained it very clearly.
You’re welcome. Enjoy the museum!
Thanks! Have a nice day.
You too.
