Small talk with classmates before a lecture
Ma'ruza oldidan kursdoshlar bilan yengil suhbat
Birinchi haftaning ma'ruzasi boshlanishiga o'n daqiqa bor. Siz auditoriyada o'tiribsiz, yoningizga boshqa davlatdan kelgan kursdosh o'tirdi.
Maqsad: Suhbatni o'zingiz boshlang, yengil mavzularda (ob-havo, kurs, turar joy) gaplashing va suhbatni tabiiy davom ettiring. Oxirida keyinroq uchrashish imkoniyatini qoldiring.
You: Hi, is anyone sitting here?
Priya: No, go ahead. I'm Priya, by the way.
You: Jasur. Nice to meet you. Are you on the Data Science course as well?
Priya: Yeah, the MSc. I think we had the same induction on Monday, actually.
You: Oh right, yes, I thought you looked familiar. That session was quite long, wasn't it?
Priya: Tell me about it. Two hours on how to use Moodle!
You: Ha, exactly. So, how are you finding it here so far?
Priya: Good, mostly. Apart from the weather. I'm from Chennai, so this is freezing for me.
You: I know what you mean. Tashkent gets cold in winter, but it's a dry cold. This rain is something else.
Priya: Right? Where are you staying, by the way? On campus?
You: Yeah, in Riverside halls. It's a bit basic, but it's only five minutes' walk, so I can't complain.
Priya: Oh, I'm in the building next to it! We should grab a coffee after this sometime.
You: Yeah, definitely, I'd like that. Oh, looks like he's starting.
Priya: Catch you after, then.
Maslahatlar
- Britaniyada ob-havo - eng xavfsiz va eng keng tarqalgan small talk mavzusi. Bu zerikarli emas, balki suhbatni boshlash uchun "eshik".
- Small talkda shaxsiy savollar (maosh, din, siyosat, oilaviy ahvol) berilmaydi. Kurs, turar joy, ovqat, sayohat - xavfsiz mavzular.
- "…, isn't it?" / "…, wasn't it?" kabi tag question'lar javob kutmaydi, ular faqat suhbatga qo'shilishga taklif. Qisqa rozilik bilan davom eting.
- "We should grab a coffee sometime" har doim ham aniq taklif emas. Agar rostdan uchrashmoqchi bo'lsangiz, kun va vaqtni o'zingiz taklif qiling.
