Choose the most appropriate response for requests, offers, apologies, advice and agreement.
Printable worksheetHow it works
In dialogue questions, one line of a conversation is missing. The right answer must fit both the line before it and the line after it.
በውይይት ጥያቄዎች የንግግሩ አንድ መስመር ይጎድላል። ትክክለኛው መልስ ከፊቱም ከኋላውም ካለው መስመር ጋር መስማማት አለበት።
Common pairs · የተለመዱ ጥንዶች
Thank you so much! → You're welcome. / Not at all.
ምስጋና → ምንም አይደለም።
I'm sorry I'm late. → That's all right. / Never mind.
ይቅርታ → ችግር የለም።
Would you like some tea? → Yes, please. / No, thank you.
ግብዣ → አዎ፣ እባክህ። / አይ፣ አመሰግናለሁ።
Could you help me, please? → Of course. / Sure, no problem.
የእርዳታ ጥያቄ → በእርግጥ።
I passed my exam! → Congratulations! / Well done!
የምሥራች → እንኳን ደስ አለህ!
I've got a bad headache. → Why don't you lie down? / You should see a doctor.
ችግር → ምክር።
Watch out for answers that are correct English but don't fit the situation. "You're welcome" is polite, but it is not a reply to "I'm sorry".
ትክክለኛ እንግሊዝኛ ሆነው ለሁኔታው የማይስማሙ መልሶችን ይጠንቀቁ። "You're welcome" ጨዋ ነው፤ ግን ለ"I'm sorry" ምላሽ አይደለም።

Excuse me, could you tell me the way to the library?
ይቅርታ፣ ወደ ቤተ መጻሕፍቱ የሚወስደውን መንገድ ሊነግሩኝ ይችላሉ?
Bereket
Of course. Go straight and turn left at the bank.
በእርግጥ። ቀጥ ብለው ይሂዱና ባንኩ ጋ ወደ ግራ ይታጠፉ።
Tigist
Thank you very much.
በጣም አመሰግናለሁ።
Bereket
You're welcome. Are you a new student here?
ምንም አይደለም። እዚህ አዲስ ተማሪ ነዎት?
Tigist
Yes, I am. I'm sorry, I've forgotten my student card at home.
አዎ ነኝ። ይቅርታ፣ የተማሪ መታወቂያዬን ቤት ረስቼዋለሁ።
Bereket
Never mind. You can use mine today.
ችግር የለም። ዛሬ የእኔን መጠቀም ትችያለሽ።
Tigist
That's very kind of you. Would you like a coffee after class?
በጣም ደግ ነህ። ከትምህርት በኋላ ቡና ትጠጣለህ?
Bereket
I'd love to, but I have a test tomorrow.
ደስ ይለኝ ነበር፤ ግን ነገ ፈተና አለብኝ።
Tigist
Good luck! I'm sure you'll do well.
መልካም ዕድል! ጥሩ እንደምትሠራ እርግጠኛ ነኝ።

Thanks. Maybe we can meet on Friday instead.
አመሰግናለሁ። ምናልባት በምትኩ አርብ እንገናኝ።
Tigist
That sounds great. See you on Friday!
በጣም ጥሩ። አርብ እንገናኝ!
