0:01 Welcome to twominuteenglish.com. Teaching you English through two-minute lessons.
0:07 In this lesson, we will learn phrases you may use when talking about money.
0:18 Do you have change for a dollar?
0:20 Consider yourself lucky, old chap. I do. Why do you need it?
0:25 I need some change for the bus. They never have change and I always have to waste my time asking other passengers.
0:33 All right. How do you want it?
0:35 A couple of quarters and five dimes would be great.
0:40 Here is it. I hope that’s enough.
0:43 Yes. I’m sure it is. Thank you so much.
0:52 Oh! Great! Just what I needed!!
0:56 What happened, Stella?
0:58 I lost another dollar in the vending machine. This stupid machine is always out of order.
1:04 Oh. I’m not at all surprised. It’s happened to me too, a number of times.
1:09 This machine eats money like a hungry teenager eats hamburgers. We should make a complaint to the management.
1:16 You are right. I think for now we should put a sign on it so that the same thing doesn't happen to others.
1:28 Great! I forgot my wallet at home.
1:31 It’s okay. I’ll treat today.
1:34 No. Let me check in my bag. I think I have some money in there.
1:39 It’s all right, Bercy.
1:40 Here it is. I’ve only got 10 dollars. I’ll have to owe you the rest.
1:46 Don’t be silly. You might need this money to get home. I’m sure this is all you’ve got for now.
1:52 Let me get this check. You can treat next time.
1:55 I feel so bad. I don’t know how I forgot to bring my wallet.
2:00 That's absolutely fine. It happens.
2:09 Hey! Long time, no see! Let’s eat out tonight!
2:13 Did you get promotion or something?
2:16 No, I just want to have a good time. You don’t need a promotion or a special occasion to have a nice, quiet dinner with a friend.
2:25 Well, I can't take you out tonight. I’m kind of broke and cannot afford any fancy dinners, at least for another week.
2:33 Really? Why didn't you say something?
2:38 Why should I? I’m only telling you now to explain why I can’t go out with you.
2:43 Well, come on! I still want to go out for dinner tonight, and it’s on me.
2:50 Really? I hope you feel like having a good time everyday!
2:58 Do you have change for a dollar?
3:03 A couple of quarters and five dimes would be great.
3:12 I lost another dollar in the vending machine.
3:19 I forgot my wallet at home.
3:24 Let me check in my bag. I think I have some money in there.
3:33 I’ve only got 10 dollars. I’ll have to owe you the rest.
3:42 You might need this money to get home.
3:48 I don’t know how I forgot to bring my wallet.
3:55 I’m kind of broke and cannot afford any fancy dinners, at least for another week.
