Dialog in Filipino (APRIL 2024):
C: Neriza, nagustuhan ko ang presentasyon mo noong isang buwan sa Kapihan 5 para sa “Araw ng mga Kababaihan”.
N: Sana nga ay naipaliwanag kong mabuti ang proyekto ng mga kababaihan sa Pilipinas para sa “World Earth Day”.
C: Kaya lang sira ang projector namin kaya hindi natin naipakita ang video na inihanda mo.
N: Walang problema iyon. Magagamit ko iyon sa panel discussion sa Osaka International House ngayong Abril.
C: Gusto mo bang imbitahin si Konsehal Numero “Uno” Lim? Mahusay rin ang mga proyekto niya tungkol sa mga plastic bags at paglilinis ng mga estero sa pangalawang distrito ng Metro Manila.
N: Kilala ko siya! Pinakabatang konsehal ng Tondo! Balita ko ay numero uno rin ang plaka ng kotse niya.
C: Hay naku Neriza, ganyan din ang sabi ng iba! Saan ba galing ang balitang iyon? Parang sirang plaka!
N: Ewan ko!! Pero, Kakaiba pati pangalan ng mga anak niya ...Una at Dua!!!
C: Aba, nalaglag ang plaka ng pagpapahalaga na natanggap mo sa plaka ng musikang Pinoy.
N: Eh, magiging sirang plaka na iyan!

Dialog in English (APRIL 2024):
C: Neriza, I liked your presentation last month in “Kapihan 5” for Women’s Day.
N: I hope that I was able to explain well the project of the womenfolk in the Philippines for World Earth Day.
C: But our projector was out of order, so we couldn’t show the video you prepared.
N: That’s not a problem. I can use it for a panel discussion at Osaka International House this April.
C: Would you like to invite Councilor Numero Uno Lim? His projects on plastic bags and cleaning the drainage canals in the 2nd District of Metro Manila are good.
N: I know him. He’s the youngest councilor and his car’s plate number is 1, too!
C: Well, Neriza, that’s what the others say, too. Where did that news come from? Sounds like a broken record.
N: I don’t know but even his children’s names are unique…..Una and Dua.
C: Oh, the plaque of appreciation you received fell on the record of Filipino music!
N: So, it will become a broken record!
