I have a question about…
Could you give me an example?
I’ve attached the final version.
Would it be possible to have a short extension?

I’m here because I need help with entregar un trabajo.
Thanks — that was the part I wasn’t sure about.
Could you walk me through that step?
Who should I contact if I have another question?
I’d rather check now than make a mistake later.
Is there a deadline I should know about?
Diálogo realista
Student: Hi. I’m not completely sure what the next step is, so I wanted to check with you.
Teacher: Absolutely. Give me the key details and I’ll see what we can do.
Student: I have a question about…
Teacher: Okay. The first thing we should look at is the reason.
Student: That part is clear. My question is really about the submission.
Teacher: Sure. In this case, the submission depends on the deadline.
Student: Could I check one thing? I don’t want to misunderstand the timing.
Teacher: Correct. The question is the final detail we need before moving ahead.
Student: Could you give me an example?
Teacher: That’s a good question. If the library changes, let us know as soon as possible.
Student: That helps. Should I keep the status available for the next step?
Teacher: Yes, keep it handy. Someone may ask you to confirm it later.
Student: I’ve attached the final version.
Teacher: Sure. The parcel is simpler than it sounds; there are only two things to remember.
Student: Thanks. The vocabulary is actually easier when I can connect it to the situation.
Teacher: Exactly. You don’t need every word. Focus on the tracking number and any instruction that follows it.
Student: Would it be possible to have a short extension?
Teacher: If anything changes, contact us and mention the extension. That will help us find your details quickly.
Student: Okay, I’ll do that. And the feedback stays the same, correct?
Teacher: Yes, the feedback is unchanged. You’re all set.
Student: Before we finish, could you give me one example using “exam” so I know I understood it?
Teacher: Of course. You’ll usually hear “exam” together with a date, number or next action. If you miss it, ask the person to repeat that specific part.
Student: Perfect. That answers my questions. Thanks for explaining it so clearly.
Teacher: No problem at all. Take care.
Cómo suena en inglés natural
Escuchá la función, no cada palabra
En una conversación sobre entregar un trabajo, identificá primero si la otra persona está pidiendo un dato, confirmando algo o indicando un próximo paso. Esa función te ayuda a responder incluso si no entendiste una palabra secundaria.
Confirmar es parte de una conversación natural
Si una respuesta contiene mucha información, repetí solo el dato importante con una pregunta corta. Eso mantiene el intercambio ágil y claro.
Usá bloques de lenguaje reutilizables
No memorices el diálogo completo. Elegí dos frases del bloque anterior y combinalas con vocabulario como “reason”, “submission” o “deadline”. Así podés adaptarte si la conversación cambia.
Errores comunes de hispanohablantes
✕ I have a doubt about this.
✓ I have a question about this.
“I have a question” es la opción natural para introducir una consulta concreta.
✕ Can you repeat me that?
✓ Could you repeat that, please?
Con repeat, lo natural es usar directamente el objeto: “repeat that” o “say that again”.
✕ I want that you check it.
✓ Could you confirm it for me?
Evitá copiar estructuras del español. En inglés cambian tanto la construcción como el registro de cortesía.
✕ Tell me the reason.
✓ Could you tell me about the reason, please?
Agregar could y please hace que un pedido de información suene mucho más natural.
