    ہیلو پٹر کیا بات ہے ؟ تم کہاں ہو؟

    :فرحین

    I am at an Indian restaurant. This is a great place. If you are available, we can eat lunch together.

    میں ایک انڈین ریستوراں میں ہوں۔ یہ بہت اچھی جگہ ہے۔ اگر تم خالی ہیں تو ہم ایک ساتھ کھانا کھا سکتے ہیں۔

    :پیٹر
    Yes, I am available. But I don’t know the directions to that place.
