Could you tell me the hours, please?Pourriez-vous m'indiquer les horaires, s'il vous plaît ?

Au Royaume-Uni, beaucoup d'adolescents travaillent l'été dès 14 ou 15 ans, quelques heures par semaine, avec des règles strictes. Pour un entretien, on se présente, on met en avant ses qualités (reliable, friendly, hard-working) et on pose des questions polies : Could you tell me...?, I'd like to know... Attention : dans une question indirecte, pas d'inversion (Could you tell me what the hours are?).

Mise en situation : l'entretien

Alors, pourquoi aimeriez-vous travailler dans notre glacier ?
Hugo : I'd like to earn some money for my holidays, and I love working with people.
