Twelve American-English Conversations
How ever do they understand each other ?
The transcripts to the recordings in this self-study set present two businessmen - a Yank and a Brit - interacting over some sort of business deal. The American is blunt, uses lots of funny slang, and has a keen business sense. The English man is reserved, uses proper English and has a keen sense of fair play.
