English Conversation about Visiting Korea

Percakapan Bahasa Inggris ketika berkunjung ke korea atau visit to korea mungkin jarang terjadi karena warga korea tidak banyak yang menguasai bahasa inggris karena kecintaan mereka terhadap budaya lokal termasuk bahasanya seperti halnya yang terjadi ketika Anda berkunjung ke negara jepang yang juga sangat mencintai budaya dan bahasanya. Tapi bagaimanapun jika memang Anda tidak punya kesempatan untuk mempelajari bahasa korea, jika beruntung Anda bisa tetap melakukan percakapan bahasa inggeris dengan warga yang khususnya anak-anak muda yang menguasa bahasa inggris ketika Anda mengalami kendala atau masalah saat berkunjung ke Korea. Selamat berwisata.

English Conversation about Holidays

Benar-benar singkat, begitulah inti dari percakapan bahasa inggris tentang liburan yang mereka bahas tanpa gairah karena sekolah harus dimulai lagi. Tapi liburan tetaplah berkesan dan layak untuk diceritakan kepada teman. Sebagaimana diceritakan dalam percakapan bahasa inggris tentang liburan, Yudi memulai liburan di kampung halaman dengan mengunjungi tempat-teman menarik di daerahnya seperti Ngarai Sianok, goa jepang dan Danau Singkarak. Sedangkan Tia juga pulang ke kampung halamannya di Jogjakarta, sekaligus menikmati liburan dengan mengunjugi tempat wisata terdekat seperti jalan Malioboro dan Borobudur. Berbeda dengan Siti, dia tidak kemana-mana hanya di rumah membantu orang tua bekerja di toko roti mereka tetapi orang tua Siti berjanji liburan berikutnya mereka akan pergi ke Bali.

 

Percakapan Bahasa Inggris tentang Liburan : Where Did You Spend Your Holidays?

Yudi : [sigh] Why did holidays end so fast? I was even really enjoying my holidays. I need more holidays. One more week should be enough.
Tia : Yeah, I know how you feel, Yudi. School should have not started out this early. Now we have to get back to our day-to-day routine. I don’t even have my passion of studying after all this short holidays.
Siti : Ha ha ha. Come on, Guys! I know it must be really hard for us to leave our beautiful holidays behind. But we all know that ready or not holidays have to be over.
Tia : [Sigh] Alright, but I really wish that we can have more days left before school. So, where did you spend your holidays, Yudi?
Yudi : You want to hear the story of my holidays? Alright, I spent my holidays at my mother’s hometown in Padang.
Siti : Wow, did you visit to any interesting places there?
Yudi : Of course! I went to some nice places there with my family, and the best places I visited were Sianok Canyon, Japanese Cave, and Singkarak Lake. Have you ever heard the names of those places?
Tia : Um…. Nope.
Siti : I watched Sianok Canyon once on TV, it seemed to be a great canyon.
Yudi : You’re right! Sianok Canyon was really great and extremely high. The view from up above the canyon was tremendous. It’s really beautiful. I wish I could go there with my wife in the future, hee hee hee. Singkarak lake was also beautiful. While I visited the lake, we met and played with many monkeys that lived around the forest near the lake.
Tia : What about the Japanese Cave? It sounds cool.
Yudi : The Japanese Cave was located near the Sianok Canyon. Just like its name, this cave was an historical legacy of Japanese people that was used as a defense base during World War II. Um…. And you, where did you spend your holidays, Tia?
Tia : I went to my father’s hometown in Jogjakarta. There I visited many interesting places, and one of them was Malioboro Street. Malioboro Street was one of my favorite spot in Jogjakarta. I bought things with low price there as long as you are good at haggling over the prices. I went to Magelang as well. I visited Borobudur, it was an awesome trip. So, where did you spend your holidays, Siti?
Siti : Actually, I didn’t go to any cool places out of the town like you all did. My parents were too busy working on our bakery shop.
Tia : Awwh… that’s too bad. I hope you didn’t feel sad for that.
Yudi : It’s okay, Tia. We still have next semester holidays, right? Maybe your parents would have time for you on the next holidays.
Siti : It’s alright, Guys. I didn’t feel disappointed at all for that. I was even really happy I could help my parents to work on our bakery shop. Plus, on the next holidays, they promised me that we could go to Bali.
Yudi : Whoa, that’s cool!
Tia : I’m glad to hear that!

Percakapan Bisnis Bahasa Inggris – How I Start My Bakery Business

Heri : Hey, Yanti! Long time no see! And now your bakery business has gone into a great success. What an achievement!
Yanti : Thank you, Heri. I’m still trying as best as I can to satisfy every customer.
Heri : Wow. Can you tell me the story of your success, Yanti?
Yanti : Well, before my business goes this big, I also experienced hard times. At the first time starting out my bakery, my factory where I made the bakery foods was in my own house’s kitchen. I did everything by myself. I made the dough, I baked the dough, I packed the bakery foods, I marketed and distributed my bakery foods to food stalls to be resold all by my self. I tried my best to satisfy people and make them love my bakery foods.
Heri : And then… what happened next?
Yanti : Over time, many people began to like my bakery foods. Seeing that opportunity, with adequate fund of bank loan and driven by strong will, I decided to build and open up my own bakery. It wasn’t still a large bakery. I stopped selling my bakery foods to the food stalls and began to sell them in my own small bakery.
Heri : Did many people come to buy right after you opened the bakery?
Yanti : It was like I needed to start over again. I had to introduce my new-open bakery to people once more. I made brochures and leaflets to get people know my bakery. And…. finally, people started to come over my bakery. My bakery customers then increased in number by the help of mouth-to-mouth promotions. That was how my marketing strategy worked.
Heri : Wow, weren’t you overwhelmed to handle those customers all by yourself?
Yanti : Of course, I had trouble to meet customer’s demands. Therefore, I decided to employ workers to work on my bakery. I started out employing 3 workers; 2 workers to work with me making the bakery foods back in the kitchen, and the rest became cashier and salesclerk that serve customers.
Heri : Do you need more workers then?
Yanti : Of course, my scale of production was getting massive over time. Therefore, I started to employ more workers, enlarge and trim up my bakery, enhance my business strategy until today.
Heri : What do you consider as the most important thing in running your bakery business?
Yanti : Definitely, costumer’s satisfaction. I wouldn’t have run my business smoothly if I belittled customer’s satisfaction. One satisfaction of a customer is enough to attract other customers to come.
Heri : That’s great, Yanti. Thank you for sharing. I wish your story can be helpful for me someday.
Yanti : You’re welcome, Heri.
