Hi George, do you know how to get downtown?

Hei, George, downtown ziangtin fehdan na thiam maw?

Sure. Why are you going there?

Thiam tuk e. Ziangruangah cutuk ah na feh duh?

I want to buy a new computer.

Computer thar ka lei duh.

OK, are you driving?

Ok, motor na mawng ding maw?

Yes.

Aw.

Go straight down this road. When you get to the second light, take a left. Then get on the highway and take exit 52.

Himi lamzin parah dingzet in feh aw. Lamzin meisa pahnih nak ihsin kehlam ah kawi aw. Cuisin highway ah feh aw la exit 52 ah suak aw.

That sounds really complicated. Can you tell me again? Which road do I take first?

A hnawk tuk a bang. In sim sal thei maw? Khui mi lamzin hmaisa bik ah ka lak ding?

You go down this road, then at the second light turn left. That road is "Main street."

Himi lamzin parah feh aw la, cule, lamzin meisa pahnih nak in kehlam ah kawi aw. Cumi lamzin cu "main street" asi.

OK, I think I've got it now.

Ok, tucu ka thei zo ding ka zum.

Why are you buying a new computer anyway? Didn't you just get one a few months ago?

Ziangruangah computer thar na lei zik? Kan dung thla reri lo te ah a thar na lei zo si lo maw?

Yes, but it doesn't work anymore.

Si, asinan tucu a tha nawn lo.

Where did you buy it?

Khui tawk ah si na lei?

At Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart ah.

I think you're computer should still be under warranty. You can bring it back to them and they'll fix it for free.

Na computer cu warranty a um lai ding ka zum. AN hnenah na rak keng sal asile a lak in an lo tuahsak thei ding ka zum.

I think you're right. I didn't think about that. I should go talk to them about it. Where is the closest Wal-Mart?

Na dik ding ka zum. Ka rak ruat lo asi. Anmah ka biak hmaisa ta le a tha ding. Wal-mart nai bik khui tawk ah a um?

It's about 2 blocks from here. I have to go there to get some stuff now anyway. Do you want to follow me?

Hi tawk ihsin blick pahnih hrawng a hla. Cutkawh ah feh in thil lak ding ka nei thotho. In rak thlun duh maw?

Sure.

Duh tuk e.
