Hello?

もしもし。 volume_up

Hi John, sorry for calling so late, I hope I didn't wake you up.

もしもし、ジョン。こんな遅い時間にかけてごめん。起こさなかったよね。 volume_up

Actually, I was just finishing some work. I haven't gone to bed yet.

いやあ、仕事を終わらせてたくてやってたとこ。まだ寝てなかったよ。 volume_up

Did you hear Bill got fired yesterday?

きのうビルが首になったの聞いた？ volume_up

No. I didn't hear that. Are you sure?

いや、聞いてない。それ本当？ volume_up

Yeah, Sarah told me this afternoon. She was pretty upset about it.

本当だよ。サラが午後教えてくれたんだ。サラ、とても怒ってたよ、そのことで。 volume_up

That's too bad. Bill's a nice guy.

それはざんねんだなあ。ビル、いい奴なのに。 volume_up

Yeah, I know.

ほんとだよね。 volume_up

Why did they fire him?

どうして首にしたんんだろう？ volume_up

She didn't say.

何も言ってなかった。 volume_up

I see. Well, if you talk to Sara again, tell her there's a job opening at my company. Bill can have an interview this week if he wants.

そうか。じゃ、サラとまた話す時、仕事の空きが僕の会社でひとつあるって言っといて。ビルがその気な今週面接受けられるけど。 volume_up

Oh, thank you so much. I'll call her and tell her.

そう、それはどうもありがとう。電話して言っとくよ。 volume_up
