The second greetings conversation is similar to the first. It starts with a “hello,” using one of the most important greeting words for you to know well: sannu. The exchange “Ina gajiya?,” “Ba gajiya” is one you know. Then the first speaker asks “How is your wife?” and “How are your children?” There is a final question about the weather, “How's the heat?” and then a closing “See you tomorrow.”
Although this conversation, like the first, is structured so that one speaker is asking all the questions and the other is giving all the answers, in real life they would be changing roles, each one asking and answering these questions.
Listen several times to the whole conversation, picking up the “music” as well as any words you can already understand.
