Maria: Hi, Carmen! How was work today?
María: ¡Hola, Carmen! ¿Qué tal el trabajo hoy?

Carmen: Oh, Maria, it was crazy as usual.
Carmen: Oh, María, ha sido una locura, como siempre.

Maria: Really? What happened this time?
María: ¿De verdad? ¿Qué pasó esta vez?

Carmen: You won't believe it. I found a parrot in the living room.
Carmen: No te lo vas a creer. Encontré un loro en la sala.

Maria: A parrot? Are you serious?
María: ¿Un loro? ¿Hablas en serio?

Carmen: Yes! It kept saying, "Clean faster, clean faster!"
Carmen: ¡Sí! No paraba de decir: "¡Limpia más rápido, limpia más rápido!".

Maria: That's hilarious! Did you talk back to it?
María: ¡Qué gracioso! ¿Le contestaste?

Carmen: I told it, "You clean if you're so smart!"
Carmen: Le dije: "¡Limpia tú si eres tan listo!".

Maria: Did it listen to you?
Maria: ¿Te hizo caso?

Carmen: No, it just laughed at me. Like, actually laughed!
Carmen: No, sólo se rió de mí. Se rió de verdad.

Maria: That's one cheeky parrot. Anything else funny?
María: Qué loro más descarado. ¿Algo más gracioso?

Carmen: Oh, yes. I vacuumed up a sock by mistake.
Carmen: Oh, sí. Aspiré un calcetín por error.

Maria: Oh no! Did you get it out?
María: ¡Oh, no! ¿Lo has sacado?

Carmen: I tried, but it was stuck. The vacuum started making weird noises.
Carmen: Lo intenté, pero estaba atascado. La aspiradora empezó a hacer ruidos raros.

Maria: I hope the client didn’t notice.
Maria: Espero que el cliente no se haya dado cuenta.

Carmen: They didn't. I hid the vacuum in the closet.
Carmen: No se han dado cuenta. Escondí la aspiradora en el armario.

Maria: You're so sneaky, Carmen!
María: ¡Qué astuta eres, Carmen!

Carmen: I had to be. What about you, Maria?
Carmen: Tenía que serlo. ¿Y tú, María?

Maria: I got lost in a mansion today.
María: Hoy me he perdido en una mansión.

Carmen: How? Those places are huge but not that big!
Carmen: ¿Cómo? Esos sitios son enormes, ¡pero no tanto!

Maria: They have ten bathrooms, Carmen! Ten!
Maria: ¡Tienen diez baños, Carmen! ¡Diez!

Carmen: Wow! Did you clean all of them?
Carmen: ¡Vaya! ¿Los limpiaste todos?

Maria: Yes, and I was exhausted by the end.
Maria: Si, y al final estaba agotada.

Carmen: We deserve a vacation after these adventures!
Carmen: ¡Nos merecemos unas vacaciones después de estas aventuras!

Maria: Absolutely! Maybe we can teach that parrot to clean while we're gone!
Maria: ¡Por supuesto! ¡A lo mejor podemos enseñar a ese loro a limpiar mientras estamos fuera!
