안녕하세요 여러분,

오늘의 질문을 한번 볼까요?

 

[ Q 10]

Hello, this is Jane Kim. I made a reservation a few days ago for dinner tonight at 7:00. There were originally supposed to be six people in my party, but I just found out that we’ll have 10 people total. We were going to be celebrating my husband’s promotion with some friends, but his parents called and said they would be visiting with some friends. I know the change is kind of a late notice and the reservations are in four hours, but if you are able to accommodate for four more people, we would really appreciate it. We’d be willing to eat an hour earlier or later if you don’t have any available tables. Whatever you can do to help us would be great. Thanks for your help. You can call me anytime on my mobile at 459-2949. Thank you.

 

남편의 승진을 축하하기 위해 식당에 오늘 저녁 7시 반으로 6명 자리를 예약해 두었는데 갑자기 시부모님이 친구분들과 오신다고 해서 예약 인원을 10명으로 늘리고 싶다는 문제입니다. 예약 시간이 몇 시간 남지 않은 상황에서 가능한 지 물어보면 자리가 없다면 원래 예약 시간 전 후로도 괜찮다고 하네요. 자, 어떻게 이 상황을 해결하면 될까요? 예약 시간을 조정해서 10명이 앉을 수 있는 자리로 예약을 해 주겠다고 하면 해결되겠네요. 앞으로도 언제든 편하게 궁금한 점 물어보라고 하며 답변을 마무리 하면 되겠습니다.

[ Model Answer ]

Hello, Mrs. Sawyer. This is Adam from Little China restaurant and I’m returning your call. I got your message that you would like to reserve a table for 10 people. Well, regarding tonight, there is an available table for 10 people, but I’m afraid I don’t have any room at 7:30. If you are willing to come at 8, I can give you our private room for 10 people. If that’s too late for dinner, we have an available table at 6. The table is in the middle of the main dining room, so it might be noisy. Please let me know which time is better for you. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call me. Thanks. I’ll see you tonight!
