Hi everybody,

I order to improve my litening skill I'm making the transcription of some english podcast, but I haven't the original transcription for the check, so I'd like that someone check mine.

I pointed out using italic caracter the sentence that don't sound well.

If you need I could send the podcast by mail

Thaks in advance

Quote:
1. Bruno phoning Nicola



Bruno: I need to schedule a meeting for the three departments involved in a new project. I called each one to find a date that would work for all three of us. So Nicola with a day after tomorrow work for you?

Nicola: No I’ll be out of the office all day, could we do at early next week or a week from today.

Bruno: I was hoping to schedule it asap, how about the end of this week?

Nicola: Well, I think that’s ok, we could meet late Thursday or Friday, I’m free Thursday from 3 to 5, and on Friday from 10 to 1.

Bruno: Ok, let me talk to Kumi and I’d like to know.



2. Bruno phoning Kumi



Bruno: Hi Kumi, can you make a meeting with Nicola and me this Thursday or Friday?

Kumi: I wish I could, but I’ll be in a Boise office starting tomorrow, how about the following week.

Bruno: I think we ca do at early next week, would Monday at 10 work for you?

Kumi: Sure, that’s fine.

Bruno: Let me ceck with Nicola, you know, I think this would be much easier an email, also Nicola annote, and we can confirm an email.

Kumi: Ok, I look for your email.



Bruno: You know, sometimes I think scheduling a meeting is the hardest part of actually having a meeting.
