8.3 Translation: Herr Walle Includes sound files!

Click here to listen to the conversation!We move to an office environment for the next three conversations in which a caller attempts to speak to a business partner, only to be unable to do so. Pay close attention to how the callers say that they will ring back, or ask to leave a message.

We will once again encounter some of the characters who we first met in Chapter 1 of our course. Listen to the conversation between the secretary Anna Müller and a business caller by clicking either here or on the sound icon at the top of this paragraph.

Anna Müller    Telephone    Herr Walle
Anna Müller Schmidt & Co., good afternoon
Herr Walle Walle, from the Kindt AG company, can I speak to Doctor Schmidt please?
Anna Müller I'm sorry, he's still in a meeting. May I help you?
Herr Walle Many thanks. I'll call back later. Goodbye.
Anna Müller Don't mention it. Goodbye.
