You already watched the video blog about Marisa and her friend Andrea. You saw how Marisa used rephrasing in the video to help Andrea understand her.

For example: In the video, our blogger said:

Marisa: No Andrea, no estoy mal. Tampoco estoy triste.

Marisa: Estoy bien, pero tengo mucho calor.

Now, imagine that you are the one having the conversation with Andrea. Read the following dialogue and rephrase your sentences by using the estar and tener expressions from this lesson to help Andrea better understand what you are trying to express.

You: “No estoy bien.”

Andrea: “¿Qué?”

You: “Estoy emocionado (or emocionada).”

Andrea: “Emocionado ( or emocionada). “¿Qué? No entiendo.”

You: (To help Andrea better understand what you are feeling, use a different TENER or ESTAR feelings phrase that is similar to the feeling stated.)

Answer:

You: Yo no estoy bien, tengo un inconveniente

You: Yo estoy entusiasmada, tengo buenas noticias

Step-by-step explanation:

You: “No estoy bien.”

Andrea: “¿Qué?”

You: Yo no estoy bien, tengo un inconveniente

In this case, I am explaining that I am not well with the phrase I have a problem.

The word "inconveniente" means situation or circumstance or reason that makes it difficult or impossible to do something.

You: “Estoy emocionada”

Andrea: “Emocionada. “¿Qué? No entiendo.”

You: Yo estoy entusiasmada, tengo buenas noticias

In this conversation use a synonym for excited so that Andrea understands and having good news is a reason to feel emotion

"Entusiasmada" is synonymous with "Emocionada",

" Emocionada" is an intense feeling of exaltation of the mood produced by the passionate admiration of someone or something, which manifests itself in the way of speaking or acting
