*Michelle:*	Cad ba mhaith leat? Pionta Guinness? What would you like? A pint of Guinness?
*Caoimhín:*	Ní hea – beidh gloine fíona agam. Fíon dearg. Merlot, má tá sé acu. No - I’ll have a glass of wine. Red wine. Merlot, if they have it.
*Michelle:*	Is maith leat fíon; ní raibh a fhios agam sin. You like wine; I didn’t know that.
*Caoimhín:*	Is breá liom é. Bíonn gloine nó dhó agam sa bhaile go minic. An maith leatsa fíon? I love it. I often have a glass or two at home. Do you like wine?
*Michelle:*	Ólaim fíon geal anois is arís. Ní maith liom fíon dearg an oiread sin. I drink white wine now and again. I don’t really like red wine that much.
*Caoimhín:*	Cad ba mhaith leat anois? What would you like now?
*Michelle:*	Beidh cupán caife agam – caithfidh mé roinnt oibre a dhéanamh sa bhaile anocht. I’ll have a cup of coffee - I have to do some work at home tonight.
*Caoimhín:*	Tá tú ag obair go ródhian! You’re working too hard!
*Michelle:*	Nach bhfuil a fhios agam! Ar mhaith leat mála criospaí? Don’t I know! Would you like a bag of crisps?
*Caoimhín:*	Ba bhreá liom criospaí. Tá mé stiúgtha leis an ocras. I’d love crisps. I’m starving.
