✳️ Buying a Used Car

📝🔊 We listened to a dialogue between Samantha and Terry about buying a used car. “Used” is the opposite of new. And here, a used car would be a car someone else bought first and is now selling again.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰used car: an automobile that is not new, usually one being sold to another person
🔰ماشین دست‌ دوم/کهنه

✳️ Samantha: Hello.
✳️ Terry: Hey, Samantha. It's Terry.

📝🔊 Samantha says, “Hello” and Terry says, “Hey Samantha. It's Terry” - identifies himself.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰identify:
🔰شناختن، شناسایی کردن، تعیین هویت کردن

✳️ Samantha: Oh, hi Terry. How's it going?

📝🔊 Samantha says, “Oh, hi Terry. How's it going?” - how are you doing?
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰How's it going?: How are you doing?
🔰چطوری؟ چه خبر؟ خوش میگذره؟ دنیا بر وفق مراده یا نه؟

✳️ Terry: Not bad. Hey, the reason I'm calling is that I heard from Veronica that you're looking for a used car.

📝🔊 Terry says, “Not bad. Hey, the reason I'm calling is that I heard from Veronica that you're looking for a used car.” He begins by saying, “the reason I'm calling is...” So of course, to tell Samantha why he is calling at that time; he had heard from Veronica, a friend that Samantha is looking for a used car.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰the reason I'm calling is...: to tell Samantha why he is calling at that time
🔰واسه/بخاطر این بهت زنگ زدم...

✳️ Samantha: Yeah, I'm hoping to find something reliable but cheap.

📝🔊 And Samantha says, “Yeah, I'm hoping to find something reliable but cheap.” To be “reliable” means that you can rely on it that you can depend on it. Reliable and dependable mean the same, basically. It means it's something that you don't have to worry about, it's not going to break down on you. She's also looking for a car that is “cheap.” And, of course cheap means not expensive, not very much money.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰reliable: someone or something that you can have confidence in or rely upon: it's something that you don't have to worry about: dependable
🔰قابل اعتماد، مطمئن
🔰basically:
🔰اساسا، در واقع، در حقیقت
🔰break down:
🔰خراب شدن، از کار افتادن
🔰cheap: not expensive, not very much money
🔰ارزان

✳️ Terry: Well, I have just the thing for you. My brother has a 2001 Ford he's trying to sell. It has low miles, it's in good condition, and he's in a hurry to sell it.

📝🔊 Terry says to Samantha, “Well, I have just the thing for you.” This is sort of a… kind of a common expression, but it's also sort of a joke. “I have just the thing for you” would be something that a salesperson, for example, might say to someone - a salesperson that you might not trust, that you might think is dishonest. It's an old expression and so when people use it now, they use it sometimes to make a joke. “I have just the thing for you.” Literally, this expression means…or actually, this expression means I have the perfect thing for you. When someone says I have just the thing for you, I have the perfect one, the one that is right for you.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰I have just the thing for you: It would be something that a salesperson, for example, might say to someone - a salesperson that you might not trust, that you might think is dishonest. It's an old expression and so when people use it now, they use it sometimes to make a joke.
🔰دقیقا همون چیزی که می‌خواهی، من دارم (به عنوان طنز یا جوک گفته میشه.)
🔰be just the thing for somebody: useful or well-suited
🔰درست همان چیزی بودن که کسی نیاز داشتن/لازم داشتن

📝🔊 Well Terry says that his brother has a 2001 Ford. And, notice we say “a 2001 Ford,” meaning a car made in 2001. Ford, of course, is a famous American car. And, he has a Ford or a 2001 Ford he's trying to sell. Terry says the car “has low miles, it's in good condition, and he's in a hurry to sell it.” When we say a car has “low miles,” we mean that it has not been driven very much; it may only have 10,000 or 20,000 or 30,000 miles on it, meaning it's been only driven that amount. Which means, it should be “in good condition,” which is the second thing that Terry says, that the car is “in good condition.” When we say something’s in good condition, we mean that everything is working, that there are no problems with it, that it's not going to break. His brother is “in a hurry to sell it.” And, of course, to be “in a hurry” means that you want something to happen right away.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰famous:
🔰مشهور، معروف
🔰low miles: a car that has not been driven very much; it may only have 10,000 or 20,000 or 30,000 miles on it, meaning it's been only driven that amount
🔰ماشینی که مسافت کمی پیموده، ماشینی که کم رونده شده
🔰in good condition: something without any serious problems
🔰در شرایط/وضع خوبی بودن، مشکلی نداشتن
🔰in a hurry: you want something to happen right away
🔰عجله داشتن

✳️ Samantha: Your brother, huh? That's not the same brother who tried to sell me a stereo system that fell off the back of a truck, is it?

📝🔊 Well, Samantha says, “Your brother, huh?” Notice the use of the word, “huh?” It's indicating here that she is not so sure, that she doesn't necessarily trust his brother. And we use that sometimes when we are trying to tell the other person that you're not sure, you don't trust what they are saying or you don't trust this particular person. So, if someone says, “Hey, I want you to meet my friend. He’s tall and he's handsome, and I think you will fall in love with him.” And a girl says, “Your friend, huh?” - meaning she's not really sure, she doubts that this person is as good as he says. Well, Samantha says, “Your brother, huh? That's not the same brother who tried to sell me a stereo system that fell off the back of a truck, is it?” - meaning, is this the same brother who tried to sell me something, get me to buy something earlier; in this case, it was a stereo system. And a stereo system would be a radio with speakers, CD player, and so forth. This stereo system, Samantha says, “fell off the back of a truck.” When we say something “fell off the back of a truck,” this is an informal expression to mean that it was stolen, that someone stole it and is now trying to sell it again or sell it to make money. It's sort of a humorous expression, sort of a joke, to say, “It fell off the back of a truck.” The idea is that a truck would be driving down the road and one of the boxes might come out of the truck and someone would find the box in the street and go, “Oh, look, a brand new stereo!” Well, of course, that doesn't happen. And that's what Samantha is suggesting: that maybe this car, like the stereo, is stolen, that someone had stolen the car and is now trying to sell it.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔰huh?: It's indicating here that she is not so sure, that she doesn't necessarily trust his brother. And we use that sometimes when we are trying to tell the other person that you're not sure, you don't trust what they are saying or you don't trust this particular person.
🔰ها، هان، چی؟، چی‌چی؟، اره؟، زکی! (وقتی از این ندا استفاده می‌کنیم که بگیم از چیزی مطمئن نیستیم، یا به حرفی یا کسی اطمینان نداریم.)
🔰stereo system: it would be a radio with speakers, CD player
🔰سیستم پخش صوت استریو
🔰and so forth: and so on
🔰و غیره، و مانند آن، و چیزهای از این قبیل
🔰fell off the back of a truck/lorry: this is an informal expression to mean that it was stolen, that someone stole it and is now trying to sell it again or sell it to make money. It's sort of a humorous expression, sort of a joke, to say.
