Just a moment, I'm coming

To the next lesson

The next sentence: Un momento, por favor, ya voy.

There is a knock at the door. A little annoyed, you call out “Moment” and play dead – “tot” in German (un momento). Then you open the gate after all (por favor), and outside stands a boy dancing the cha-cha-cha (ya voy).

Voy is sometimes heard with a B and sometimes with a V; here Elena pronounces it like “boy” both times. Both versions are understood – the closer you get to Elena’s sound, the better.
