Hello everybody. Welcome to a new

0:01

episode of Easy English. So, I'm still

0:04

in Münster and I got the idea to create

0:07

a video

0:09

about tourism. Specifically vocabulary

0:12

and phrases [music]

0:13

you'd use when visiting a new city and

0:17

asking the locals for some advice. I

0:19

thought this would give you a good idea

0:21

as to how non-native English speakers

0:24

use their English and I will be

0:26

correcting any sort of little mistakes

0:27

they'll be making which hopefully you

0:29

can relate to. Also, give you an idea

0:31

for how native speakers, native English

0:34

speakers, will speak to each other when

0:36

asking for advice when they're

0:38

sightseeing around new cities. I hope

0:40

you all enjoy and don't forget to

0:42

subscribe to our channel.

0:43

0:43

0:49

1:27

Yeah, so I'm in my class. Uh excuse me.

1:29

Hi.

1:30

I'm really sorry to trouble you, but um

1:33

could you help me? I'm new to the city.

1:35

Yeah, sure. What are you looking for? I

1:37

wonder if I could ask you a quick

1:38

question because I'm new here. Um

1:41

are you from Münster?

1:43

We are both from Münster.

1:44

>> We're from Münster. Great. So, I'm a

1:46

sightseer and I'd like to take some

1:48

pictures. What would you recommend for

1:50

me to go and see?

1:52

I'm looking for a place I can get a good

1:53

coffee. Would you know?

1:55

Coffee. Let me think about

1:58

Yeah. I know a place over here. So, I'm

2:01

new to the city, but could you recommend

2:03

a good place to get some food? I'm kind

2:05

of hungry.

2:06

Excuse me. Hi.

2:08

>> Hi. How's it going? It's all very good.

2:10

Yeah. I'm sorry to interrupt you, but

2:13

I'm looking for where I might find the

2:15

train station.

2:16

>> It's straight to this direction in this

2:18

one. Okay.

2:19

>> And then do you must to go on the left.

2:23

And then

2:24

um a few hundred meters on the right and

2:27

one on the left and then you get it to

2:29

the central station. Oh, wow.

2:31

>> It's the central station. It's just like

2:32

in this direction. It's called Fial. Ah,

2:34

okay. Yeah. Going there and turn, I

2:37

think it is the first you have to turn

2:39

left.

2:39

>> First left, okay. Can I walk there? Is

2:42

it Yeah, no, this is not far distance.

2:43

It's like about 500 m or 200.

2:46

>> Okay, amazing.

2:47

>> 250. I'm very bad [laughter] in guessing

2:49

how far it is. Okay, but walkable.

2:51

>> Yeah, absolutely walkable.

9:26

are a lot of vegetarian options and it's
