\nBenjam\u00edn: Feliz Navidad Alejandro. S\u00ed estoy con la familia. Es un poco aburrido. Porque soy hijo \u00fanico.
\nAlejandro: \u00bfTus padres no tienen hermanos o hermanas?
\nBenjam\u00edn: No, mis padres son hijos \u00fanicos tambi\u00e9n. No tengo t\u00edos ni t\u00edas.
\nAlejandro: \u00bfAbuelos?
\nBenjam\u00edn: Desgraciadamente no. Est\u00e1n muertos.
\nAlejandro: Entonces est\u00e1is solo t\u00fa y tus padres en casa para navidad.
\nBenjam\u00edn: S\u00ed, eso es. \u00bfY t\u00fa?
\nAlejandro: Bueno. Yo tengo una familia muy grande. Somos mis padres, mis cuatro hermanos, mis seis hermanas y yo. Hay mucho ruido en casa siempre.
\nBenjam\u00edn: \u00a1Qu\u00e9 divertido!
\nAlejandro: No lo s\u00e9. No hablo mucho con mis hermanas y me peleo con mis hermanos.
\nBenjam\u00edn: \u00bfTienes abuelos, t\u00edos y t\u00edas?
\nAlejandro: S\u00ed, mi abuela y mi abuelo est\u00e1n en casa con nosotros para navidad, tambi\u00e9n mis cinco t\u00edos y seis t\u00edas, con mis diez primos.
\nBenjam\u00edn: Tengo envidia. Suena muy bien.
\nAlejandro: \u00bfQuieres comer con nosotros ma\u00f1ana?
\nBenjam\u00edn: \u00a1S\u00ed, claro! Muchas gracias Alejandro.

\nBenjam\u00edn: Merry Christmas Alejandro. Yes, I am with the family. It is a bit boring. Because I am an only child.
\nAlejandro: Your parents don\u2019t have brothers or sisters?
\nBenjam\u00edn: No, my parents are only children too. I don\u2019t have uncles or aunts.
\nAlejandro: Grandparents?
\nBenjamin: Unfortunately not. They are dead.
\nAlejandro: Then it\u2019s just you and your parents at home for Christmas.
\nBenjam\u00edn: Yes, that’s right. And you?
\nAlejandro: Well. I have a very large family. We are my parents, my four brothers, my six sisters and me. There is a lot of noise at home always.
\nBenjam\u00edn: What fun!
\nAlejandro: I dunno. I don\u2019t talk much with my sisters and I fight with my brothers.
\nBenjam\u00edn: Do you have grandparents, uncles and aunts?
\nAlejandro: Yes, my grandmother and my grandfather are at home with us for Christmas, also my five uncles and six aunts, with my ten cousins.
\nBenjam\u00edn: I’m envious. It sounds really good.
\nAlejandro: Do you want to eat with us tomorrow?
\nBenjam\u00edn: Yes, of course! Thank you very much Alejandro.
\nAlejandro: You’re welcome. See you tomorrow at two.
\nBenjam\u00edn: Ok, very good. See you tomorrow!<\/p>\n
