Marco: Hello English learners! Welcome to EnglishPod! My name is Marco.
Erica: And I’m Erica.
Marco: We’re bringing you a great elementary podcast today.
Erica: That’s right.
Marco: And we’re gonna be teaching you how to order pizza.
Erica: Yeah, you know, pizza is one of my favorite foods and the favorite food of many people.
Marco: Exactly, it’s one of those common foods that you're at home and you want to order something to eat. And the typical thing is pizza.
Erica: Yeah, but you know there’s some very special language that you’ve gotta use, you’ve gotta know this language, ah, when you want to order a pizza.
Marco: Exactly, so, let’s listen to this dialogue for the first time as a man is ordering pizza.
Pizza Clerk: Good evening. Pizza House. This is Marty speaking. May I take your order?
晚上好,披萨小屋。我是 Marty,请问您需要点什么?Customer: Yes. I'd like a medium pizza with pepperoni, olives, and extra cheese.
你好,我要一个中份披萨,加意式美式辣香肠、橄榄和双份芝士。Pizza Clerk: We have a two for one special on large pizzas. Would you like a large pizza instead?
我们大份披萨现在有买一送一的优惠活动,您要不要换成大份的?Customer: Sure. That sounds good.
可以啊,听起来不错。Pizza Clerk: Great. Would you like your second pizza to be the same size as the first?
太好了。请问您的第二个披萨要跟第一个一样大吗?Customer: No. Make the second one with ham, pineapple, and green peppers. Oh, and make it thin crust.
不用。第二个放火腿、菠萝和青椒。噢,顺便做成薄饼底的。Pizza Clerk: Okay. Thin crust. Your total is $21.50 and your order will arrive in 30 minutes or it's free.
好的,薄饼底。您一共是 21.50 美元,您的外卖会在 30 分钟内送到,超时免单。Customer: Perfect. Thank you. Bye.
太棒了,谢谢,拜拜。Pizza Clerk: Sir, wait! I need your address!
先生,等等!我还需要您的地址呢!
Marco: Okay, so I guess he is not getting his pizza.
Erica: No, he forgot to give his address.
Marco: That’s a bit of a problem.
Erica: Uhu.
Marco: Okay, let’s take a look at some of the vocabulary in “language takeaway”.
Erica: Alright, we’ve got some great pizza words for you today, um, and our first one we have is a medium pizza.
Marco: Medium pizza.
Erica: Medium pizza.
Marco: So, that’s the size, right?
Erica: Yeah.
Marco: Medium. You can say medium or…
Erica: Twelve inch.
Marco: Twelve inch.
Erica: Yeah.
Marco: Usually a medium pizza is twelve inches.
Erica: Yeah, so you could say "I’d like a twelve inch pizza".
Marco: Okay, for those of us who use centimeters this would be more or less thirty centimeters.
Erica: Okay.
Marco: Hehe. Alright, let’s take a look at the next size. A large pizza.
Erica: Large pizza.
Marco: A large pizza.
Erica: So, it might also be called an eighteen inch…
Marco: An eighteen inch pizza.
Erica: Uhu.
Marco: Or isn’t it sometimes called a family size?
Erica: Maybe. I guess it depends where you’re ordering.
Marco: Yeah. Okay, so large and medium pizzas. Now, let’s take a look at some of the ingredients.
Erica: Yes.
Marco: Okay, we have pepperoni.
Erica: Pepperoni.
Marco: Pepperoni.
Erica: Pepperoni.
Marco: This is the common ingredient of pizza.
Erica: It’s my favorite. Um, a pizza is not a pizza unless it has pepperoni.
Marco: Hehe. Okay, so, pepperoni is like… is a sausage, right?
Erica: Yeah, it’s a little bit spicy.
Marco: A little bit spicy.
Erica: Yeah.
Marco: And they look like, ah…
Erica: Like circles.
Marco: Red circles.
Erica: Yep.
Marco: Okay. Olives.
Erica: Olives.
Marco: Olives.
Erica: Olives.
Marco: Olives are little black or green balls.
Erica: Yes, little green or black balls you… you can also find them in a Martini.
Marco: Yeah, exactly. It’s very common to have an olive in a Martini.
Erica: Yes.
Marco: Okay. And he also ordered extra cheese.
Erica: Extra cheese.
Marco: So, that means more cheese. Extra.
Erica: Alright, another ingredient - ham.
Marco: Ham.
Erica: Ham. The meat of a pig.
Marco: Yeah, ham.
Erica: Yep.
Marco: Okay. And he also ordered another strange ingredient for the pizza - pineapple.
Erica: Pineapple.
Marco: Pineapple.
Erica: Pineapple.
Marco: Now, this is a fruit.
Erica: I know, so weird to put pineapple on a pizza.
Marco: Hehe. Many people like pineapple on their pizza. It’s a tropical fruit.
Erica: Yep, comes from Hawaii.
Marco: Usually. And it kind of looks like a little palm tree at the top.
Erica: Yeah, the top of a pineapple looks like a tree.
Marco: Uhu. So, pineapple.
Erica: Yep.
Marco: Aright, now, the last description of a pizza. He ordered it with thin crust.
Erica: Thin crust.
Marco: Thin crust.
Erica: Thin crust.
Marco: Now, we know thin is skinny.
Erica: Skinny.
Marco: But crust. What is crust?
Erica: It’s the bread part of the pizza.
Marco: The outside part.
Erica: Yep.
Marco: Okay, so that’s the crust.
Erica: That’s my favorite part of the pizza.
Marco: Really?
Erica: Yeah, mmm. Thin crust, yeah, thin crust and I just… I really love that bread part.
Marco: Hehe.
Erica: It’s so important to a good pizza.
Marco: Hehe. Okay, well, you know they also have the crust filled with cheese.
Erica: I know, it's so wrong.
Marco: That’s good too.
Erica: No.
Marco: Hehe. Alright, let’s listen to our dialogue again and then we’ll come back and talk a little bit more.
Pizza Clerk: Good evening. Pizza House. This is Marty speaking. May I take your order?
晚上好,披萨小屋。我是 Marty,请问您需要点什么?Customer: Yes. I'd like a medium pizza with pepperoni, olives, and extra cheese.
你好,我要一个中份披萨,加意式美式辣香肠、橄榄和双份芝士。Pizza Clerk: We have a two for one special on large pizzas. Would you like a large pizza instead?
我们大份披萨现在有买一送一的优惠活动,您要不要换成大份的?Customer: Sure. That sounds good.

太棒了,谢谢,拜拜。Pizza Clerk: Sir, wait! I need your address!
先生,等等!我还需要您的地址呢!
Marco: Okay, now we have some really polite language that you could use possibly with customers or with clients. So let’s take a look at them in “fluency builder”.
Erica: Alright, the first phrase we have, um, I think is my favorite. This is the way that Marty answered the phone, right? He said "this is Marty speaking".
Marco: This is Marty speaking.
Erica: This is Marty speaking.
Marco: Now, why is this so important?
Erica: Cause a lot of people when they answer the phones say "I’m Erica…", like "hello, I’m Erica". Which is not what English people say. We always say "Erica speaking" or "this is Erica speaking".
Marco: Exactly. So, guys, remember this, you’ll sound really really great when you use this on the phone. This is Marty speaking.
Marco: Exactly. This is Marty… oh, don’t use Marty. Use your name.
Erica: Hehe.
Marco: Hehe. Alright. Then he also mentioned a two for one special.
Erica: Two for one special.
Marco: A two for one special. So, that means you’re getting two pizzas for the price of one. And a special is just a special promotion, special price.
Erica: Yes. Two for one special.
Marco: Alright, now very easy phrase - would you like?
Erica: Would you like?
Marco: Would you like?
Erica: Would you like?
Marco: Now, this is a great way to offer something.
Erica: It’s a more polite way of asking "do you want".
Marco: "Do you want" is okay, but it’s less polite than "would you like".
Erica: Exactly.
Marco: So, whenever you offer something: "Would you like a cup of coffee?"
Erica: "Would you like to sit down?"
Marco: Okay, so, would you like. Let’s listen to our dialogue for the last time and then we’ll come back and talk about pizza from a pizza expert.
Pizza Clerk: Good evening. Pizza House. This is Marty speaking. May I take your order?
晚上好,披萨小屋。我是 Marty,请问您需要点什么?Customer: Yes. I'd like a medium pizza with pepperoni, olives, and extra cheese.

Marco: Alright, we’re back and we are here with our pizza expert, who else, but Marco from ItalianPod.
Marco (Guest): Hi, everyone.
Erica: Marco Two, right?
Marco (Guest): Marco One.
Marco: I’m Marco Zero, he’s Marco One.
Marco (Guest): Yes.
Erica: Alright.
Marco: We’ve come to an agreement.
Marco (Guest): So, Zero, what’s the deal about this pizza thing?
Marco: We’re talking about pizza today and we want to know what’s your opinion since pizza comes from Italy, right?
Marco (Guest): Well, thanks for the question first, ah, Marco Zero. Is my mic working?
Marco: It should be.
Erica: Yes.
Marco (Guest): Okay, so, ah, the problem with pizza is that, ah… yes, it comes from Italy… originated… the story goes… Queen Margherita.
Marco: Alright.
Marco (Guest): But the problem is that now this confusion worldwide, pizza and Pizza Hut, American pizza, Italian pizza, that is not the same thing.
Marco: It’s not the same.
Marco (Guest): It’s not the same.
Marco: So, Pizza Hut isn’t Italian pizza.
Marco (Guest): No… So here it goes, hm, Italians are a little better… Italians make food but they’re not good at branding it. Americans are very good at branding their food. So they have Starbucks and Pizza Hut and bla-bla-bla… The problem is that since they have to brand it they don’t change the name. So they do this PIZZA Hut… that is totally different from Italian pizza. How is it different? Have you ever seen the two of them? Have you ever compared them?
Marco: Yeah, yeah. They are very different. That’s true.
Erica: So, okay, can you put pineapple and ham on a pizza?
Marco (Guest): Aaah, technically you could… as long as you call it Hawaiian you can put pineapple in everything, I guess, but the problem… what I’m trying to say that… Okay, Italian pizza is, you know, you have the flour, the bread, the crust, the tomato sauce, and then the Mozzarella cheese and that’s a basic and then you can put on top of it… with some variations. My compito is basically take everything that you have on the table and put this on it. That’s a main difference. But… I’m not saying that I’m against the American pizza. I’m saying that you just should change the name.
Marco: To another thing. What do you suggest we should call it?
Marco (Guest): Zippa.
Marco: Zippa.
Marco (Guest): It’s close enough.
Marco: Close enough, yeah.
Erica: Yeah. But… Maybe you need like an A, like Azippa.
Marco (Guest): Azippa.
Marco: Azippa.
Erica: To indicate that it’s American, A for America.
Marco: Uh, maybe.
Marco (Guest): A.Zippa.
Erica: A.Zippa.com.
Marco (Guest): Uh… Can I have a A.Zippa.
Marco: So, Marco…
Erica: Dot com.
Marco (Guest): A.zippaPod.com.
Marco: So, Marco, I know that, um… that you are very much against having Pizza Hut pizza.
Marco (Guest): Um, I like it as an exotic experience, because I like the fact that there's so much stuff in it that you can not even tell the difference between the ingredients.
Marco: Hehe.
Marco (Guest): You know, they have this super mega supreme…
Marco: Super supreme.
Marco (Guest): Super supreme.
Erica: With cheese in the crust.
Marco (Guest): I don’t even know what’s inside. It's great. It’s great, it’s like there’s a party in my mouth and everybody’s invited.
Marco: Hehe.
Marco (Guest): That… that’s for me the feeling of American pizza.
Marco: Well, another interesting thing when we were eating pizza with Marco is that we noticed the way that people from different countries eat pizza.
Erica: That’s right. Italian people fold their pizza.
Marco (Guest): We do fold… and another thing is that we have a whole pizza like if I order one pizza it’s not like I share it, everybody has a one slice of it. We ordered one pizza, you ordered your pizza, she ordered her pizza and so on.
Marco: Pizza is personal.
Marco (Guest): Pizza's personal. Don’t mess with my pizza, Marco Zero.
Marco: Hehe. Alright, well, this whole pizza discussion. Let’s see what our listeners have to say about it. I know that we have listeners from all over the world and what do they do with their pizzas.
Erica: Yes. What do you…
Marco (Guest): Or their zippas.
Marco: Or their zippas.
Erica: What do you like on your pizza?
Marco: Exactly, for example, I…
Marco (Guest): How high you want the crust to be?
Erica: Thin.
Marco: How high?
Erica: Thin.
Marco: I know that, for example…
Marco (Guest): How thin you want your crust to be?
Marco: I know that, for example, in some countries they put ketchup on their pizza.
Marco (Guest): I know! Once I was eating pizza… look… I had a Japanese friend who ordered pizza from Pizza Hut and… the pizza had pineapple and other stuff on it and then she took out like ketchup and mayonnaise…
Erica: Oh, no.
Marco (Guest): And she got like wild. Haaah!
Erica: Although I must tell you I like Tabasco on my pizza and I know that’s wrong, I know. I’m sorry.
Marco (Guest): Yes… yeah… You do what you have to do, Erica, then, you know, history will judge you for that.
Marco: Alright, we better go, we’re out of time and before Marco has a heart attack or an aneurysm or something we’re making him angry here. And if you have any questions for us and also for Marco, because I’m sure he’s gonna be commenting on this aspect…
Marco (Guest): Ah, sure.
Marco: So, go to our comments section at englishpod.com.
Erica: And Marco and I, ah… Marco Zero and I are always there to answer your questions.
Marco: Alright.
Erica: Alright, everyone.
Marco: We'll see you there.
Erica: Good bye.
Marco (Guest): Ciao!
Marco: Bye!
Marco (Guest): Ciao!
