| Iain | Dè b’ fheàrr leat? | What would you prefer? |
| Norman | B’ fheàrr leam a dhol gu Tenerife no Jamaica no Moustique. Tha mi airson a dhol gu àite blàth. | I’d prefer to go to Tenerife or Jamaica or Moustique. I want to go to a warm place. |
| Iain | Tha mi a’ dol leat. Bu toigh leam fhìn a dhol gu àite blàth. Ach chan fhaigh sinn plèan gu Tenerife an t-seachdain seo. Dè mu dheidhinn Malta? | I agree with you. I’d like to go to a warm place myself. But we won’t get a plane to Tenerife this week. How about Malta? |
| Norman | Malta? Och, bha sinn ann an-uiridh. | Malta? Och, we there last year. |
