kshea88 Posted December 17, 2007 at 09:29 AM Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 at 09:29 AM Hey this is my first post here everyone, actually just found the forums. I'm in my first semester of Mandarin and for my final grade this Tuesday I have to write and perform a dialogue in front of my class. Ive already written it but I know its not really correct. I had planned for an aunt of mine to help with it but she is in Puerto Rico now and wont be back until after the fact. Just so you all know our teacher wanted them to be "interesting" so its a little weird, but without any further adieu here goes: In Characters: R - 喂 Kris - 你 知道 你 的 女儿 在哪里吗？ R - 你 绑架 我 的 女儿！ 你是谁？ Kris - 我 叫 黄 眼镜蛇。 R - 眼睛蛇 你想要 什么? Kris - 黄 眼镜蛇! 我 常常 绑架 而女？，我 要 一千七百万 元。 一千七百万 元 吗？可是 我 只 有 十五百万 元。 R - 一千七百万 元 吗？可是 我 指 有 十五百万 元。 Kris - 你 想不想 你 的 女儿 活？你 支付 我 一千七百时二 月 十五 号。 你 有 五 天。 R - Ok, Ok, 我 支付 你，可是 我 需 七 天。 你 不 他 损害 吧。你 是 怪物。 Kris - Hahaha, 哪里 哪里， 对不起 你 依然 五天。 R - 好，我会去找这些钱。你照顾好我的女儿。她喜欢吃美国饭，喝绿茶 Kris - Ok, 但是 如果 你 不 支付 我，我 她 诛杀。 heres what I meant for it all to resemble in English: R – Hello K – Do you know where your daughter is Ronnie? R – You kidnapped my daughter! Who is this? K – I am the yellow cobra. R – What do you want cobra? K – Yellow Cobra! I often kidnap children. I want 17 million dollars. R – 17 million dollars? But I only have 15 million. K – Do you want your daughter alive? You will pay me 17 million dollars December 25th. You have 5 days. R – Ok ok, I’ll pay you but I need 7 days, don’t harm her you monster. K – Hahaha I’m sorry you flatter me, you still have five days. R - Ok I will try to find the money. Take care of my daughter. She likes to eat American food, and drink green tea. K – Ok but if you don’t pay me I will kill her. Ill take any suggestions, corrections would be great =]. It doesn't have to be any less strange just gramatically correct. Also like I mentioned it is also a first semester class so it doesn't need to be eloquent or anything. Thanks in advance.
