# Conversation: Calling a Friend

Haitian Creole Conversations, Lesson 06

 Conversation: Calling a Friend

Practice a short phone call with identity and a callback request.

   6

Alo

## 1. Conversations focus

Phone dialogue should be short and predictable for beginners.

**Pronunciation guide:** alo = ah-loh; pita = pee-tah; rele mwen = reh-leh mwen.

## 2. How to use it

 Use **se...** to identify yourself on the phone. Use **rele mwen pita** for call me later.

## 3. Conversations building blocks

This can reuse the listening phone-message audio with a role-play version.

| Creole dialogue | English sounds-like guide | English meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| A: Alo? | *Ah-loh* | Hello? |
| B: Alo, se Ana. | *Ah-loh, seh Ah-nah* | Hello, it is Ana. |
| A: Mwen okipe. | *Mwen oh-kee-peh* | I am busy. |
| A: Rele mwen pita. | *Reh-leh mwen pee-tah* | Call me later. |
