Diálogo realista
Alex: Hi, I was hoping you could help me with something.
Morgan: Sure. What would you like to check first?

Morgan: Okay. The first thing we should look at is the meeting.
Alex: Okay. Could you explain how the priority works here?

Morgan: Correct. The industry is the final detail we need before moving ahead.
Alex: I want to make sure I understood correctly.
Morgan: It depends on the goal. If that stays the same, the process is straightforward.
Alex: That helps. Should I keep the project available for the next step?
Morgan: That would be useful. You may not need it now, but it can save time later.

Alex: Perfect. That answers my questions. Thanks for explaining it so clearly.
Morgan: You’re welcome. Have a good day.
