Presenter: Conversation 1

A: I’m going to buy something to eat from the restaurant downstairs. Would you like anything?

B: Oh yes, please. Could you order me some dim sum?

A: Some what?

B: Dim sum.

A: What kind of food is that?

B: It's a kind of traditional Chinese food from South China, including dumplings, spring rolls, meatballs and so on.

A: Oh, I see. So “dim sum” comes from Chinese?

B: Yes, that’s right. In fact, it comes from the Guangdong dialect. In Mandarin or Putonghua it would be “dian xin”.

A: Well, it sounds good! Maybe I’ll order that as well...

Presenter: Conversation 2

A: How was the movie?

B: It was great, but someone in front of me was talking so loudly on her phone.

A: How cellfish!

B: Yes, I agree. Very selfish.

A: Ah, do you know what I mean by “cellfish”?

B: Of course! When you say “selfish”, you mean only caring about yourself and r about other people, right?

A: That's what “selfish” with an “s” means, but I’m talking about “cellfish” starting with the letter “c”.

B: I haven’t heard that word before. What does it mean?

A: It means using a cellphone in a way that shows you don’t care about the other people around you.

B: That's interesting. How do you spell it?

A: C-E-L-L-F-I-S-H. It’s the words “cellphone” and “selfish” put together. B: Oh, I see...

Presenter: Conversation 3

[SFX of someone pressing mobile phone keys, followed by a chime indicating a new message]

A: Darling, could you take a look at this message from Lucy? I have no idea what she's talking about... again.

B: What has she said?

A: Well, I told her a joke that Bob told me today at the office, and, as you see, she replied “LOL”. What's that for?

B: Oh, LOL! It’s a shorter way of saying “laugh out loud”.

A: I’ve never seen or heard that before. Where does it come from?

B: It was first used on the Internet. You use it to show you think something is very funny.

A: Oh, okay.

B: Keep up with the times, darling!
