Could I have two keys, please?

To the next lesson

The next sentence: ¿Podría darme dos llaves, por favor? The pronunciation of llaves takes some getting used to – listen closely to Elena. The image for it: you open a cupboard with a key, and inside are dates and a sunlit apple (llaves).

At reception you explain why you need two keys: yesterday at the bar you accidentally touched your partner’s bottom (“Po” in German), and in her fright she dropped the key into her apple juice drink (podría). Then you took her in your arms (darme, from the German “Arme”) and gave her a tin (dos, from the German “Dose”) with the dates and the sunlit apple inside (llaves). You leave through the gate (por favor).
