A: 喲，陳靜，越來越漂亮啦！不會是談戀愛了吧！
yo¯ , Che´n J`ıng, yue`la´iyue` ba!
pia`oliang la! bu`hu`ı sh`ı ta´nlia`na`i le
Wow, Chen Jing, you are getting prettier and prettier! You’re not seeing someone, are you?
B: 菲菲，你老是亂說！哎，新工作怎麼樣？
Fe¯ ife¯ i, nˇı laˇoshi lua`nshuo¯ ! a¯ i, x¯ın go¯ ngzuo` zeˇnmeya`ng?
Feifei, you’re always talking nonsense! Hey, how is your new job?
A: 老一套嘰。不過，和新同事相處得倒不錯。

x¯ın to´ngsh`ı xia¯ ngchuˇ
de da`o bu`cuo`.
The same old thing. But I actually get along with my new co-workers pretty well.
B: 噢！看來，你一定是看上誰了！對了，你現在在
哪家公司？
o! ka`nlai, nˇı y¯ıd`ıng sh`ı ka`nshang she´i le! du`ıle, nˇı xia`nza`i

go¯ ngs¯ı?
Oh, it looks like you must be interested in someone! Oh right, which company are you at now?
A: 自己看名片吧。
z`ıjˇı ka`n m´ıngpia`n ba.
You can see for yourself on my business card.
B: 不會吧？這麼巧！和麗麗的男朋友一家公司。你
認識張亮嗎？
bu`hu`ı ba? zhe`me qiaˇo! he´
L`ıli de na´npe´ngyou y¯ı jia¯
go¯ ngs¯ı.
nˇı re`nshi Zha¯ ng Lia`ng ma?
No way! What a coincidence! It’s the same company as Lili’s boyfriend. Do you know Zhang Liang?
A: 啊？張亮？你說張亮和麗麗是一對！哪有這麼巧啊！哎，這年頭好男入都被入挑光了。
a¯ ? Zha¯ ng Lia`ng? nˇı shuo¯

Huh? Zhang Liang? You’re saying Zhang Liang and Lili are a couple? This is such a coincidence! (sigh) Nowadays all the good men have been taken.
B: 好男入？你覺得他哪裡好？
haˇo na´nre´n? nˇı jue´de ta¯ naˇli haˇo?
Good men? What do you think is good about him?
A: 入不錯，有才華，而且也挺帥的。總之，各方面
條件都不錯。麗麗真有眼光啊。

He’s a good person, talented and pretty good looking. Over- all, in every aspect he’s pretty good. Lili has a really good taste.
B: 喲， 怎麼了？ 羨慕了？ 你好像對他挺有意思的
嘛。要不要約他吃頓飯，喝杯東西啊？

be¯ i do¯ ngxi a¯ ?
What? Are you envious? You seem quite interested in him. Would you want to ask him out for a meal, or to go out for a drink?
A: 這怎麼行？他不是你最好的朋友的男朋友嗎？

sh`ı nˇı zu`ıhaˇo de pe´ngyou de na´n-
pe´ngyou ma?
How could I do that? Isn’t he your best friend’s boyfriend?
B: 有什麼不行？他們又沒結婚。再說，麗麗和張亮
還不一定有結果呢！
yoˇu she´nme bu`x´ıng? ta¯ men yo`u me´i jie´hu¯ n. za`ishuo¯ , L`ıli he´
Zha¯ ng Lia`ng ha´i bu`y¯ıd`ıng yoˇu jie´guoˇ ne!
What’s wrong with that? It’s not like they’re married. Be- sides, Lili and Zhang Liang might not work out in the end anyways.
