Мне надо в Сан-Диего

– Извините! Мне надо в Сан-Диего уехать, точнее, в Чула-Виста. Вы не знаете, с какого вокзала?

– Не знаю.

– Туда надо ехать на подземке. Автовокзал прямо рядом со станцией «Истен дистрикт».

– Подземка далеко отсюда?

– Рядом, за углом. Вон там.

– Спасибо!

– Счастливого пути!

Вариант на британском английском:

– Excuse me! I need to go to San Diego, to Chula Vista, to be precise. Could you please tell me which Railway Station I need?

– You don’t need a Railway Station, you’d better get there by bus, from Oceanside Bus Station. The coach goes directly to Chula Vista, via Carlsbad. Now how to get to the Bus Station, do you want to ask me? That’s simple. By Underground. The Station’s called “Eastern District”.

– Is the nearest Underground Station far from here?

– No, just round the corner. Over there, see?

– Ah, yes. Thank you very much!

– Have a good journey.

Где автовокзал?

– Скажите, автовокзал где? Я, по-моему, заблудился немного.

– Автовокзал вон там, за мостом налево. У нас, вообще-то еще Южный автовокзал есть. А этот, который за мостом налево – Центральный. Вам куда надо ехать?

– В Филадельфию.

– Это отсюда. Можно, конечно, и с Южного, потому что там автобус делает остановку, но вам удобнее отсюда.

– Спасибо!

– Хорошей дороги!
