We'd Been Hoping for a Romantic Trip - Past Perfect Continuous -So tell me about the trip, Maya. how was new York city? -did you and Carl get to know each other better? -yes, we did. the trip was….okay. ever since Carl invited me to new York city. I had been marking the days off the calendar! well, i had been hoping to have a romantic trip with Carl, but you know that Lucy decided to come along. -yes, i know, you told me. did she ruin the trip? -kind of! but i know she didn't do it on purpose! Anyway, i had been worrying things might not turn out the way i wanted ever since Lucy invited herself to come along! -i have to admit that I'd been getting a little worried, too. I'd been thinking that something like that might happen. please tell me about it. -First, Carl and i wanted to have a romantic dinner, so we made a reservation at a fancy restaurant. i had been encouraging Lucy to go to a Broadway show so that Carl and i could be alone. Lucy bought a ticket for the show, but then said she needed to get dinner. -Please tell me she didn't go to the same restaurant as you. -not at first. she said she wanted to try food from a street vendor she had seen. we went our separate ways. Then, when Carl and i sat down to dinner, Lucy showed up! she had been walking around for a while trying to find something to eat. she decided she didn't want to eat food from a street vendor, so she came to check out the restaurant. we had been enjoying our time together so much before she showed up! -did you get any alone time with Carl? I tried i had been waiting for Carl to get up from the table, as i didn't want to embarrass Lucy in front of him. when he went to the bathroom. i told Lucy i had been looking forward to spending time with Carl on the trip. -was Lucy understanding? -I thought she was at first. she nodded and told me that she had been watching Carl and I together and we seemed like the perfect match. -what happened next? -i had been keeping an eye on the time and i told her that she didn't want to be late to the show. Lucy left the restaurant to go to the Broadway show. Carl and i enjoyed the rest of our dinner together. Then, we decided to take a romantic walk on the Hudson river. we had been dreaming about seeing the statue of liberty all lit up at night for a long time. we walked in that direction. -That sounds so romantic! i'm glad you finally got some alone time with Carl. -we had been walking for some time, when Carl took my hand. he had been leaning towards me trying to kiss me… when Lucy called. she didn't like the Broadway show so she left early. she had been riding the subway when she had the idea to call me. she asked where Carl and i were, so I told her. she decided that she would visit the statue of liberty with us. Carl had been getting more and more irritated with Lucy, but that was too much for him! -why didn't you just tell Lucy that you wanted more alone time with Carl? -i couldn't because Carl had been standing there and had been listening to everything I said. i was way too embarrassed to say all that in front of him. -so, did you two ever get to kiss? -yes, sort of. it was kind of funny. The next day, Lucy wanted to go to central park. she'd been looking for things to do when she saw a carousel. she thought that it would be fun for all of us to ride it. Carl and i climbed onto the carousel next to each other, and Lucy chose to ride right behind us. -and you kissed on the carousel? i had been hoping for a more romantic story than that? -the ride had ended and i had been trying to get off the carousel, but my leg was stuck on the horse. Carl came over to help me. he tugged on my shoe, trying to get it unstuck. Lucy had been watching. then she wanted to help and tried to push me off. she pushed me into Carl and we both fell on the ground. -is that when you kissed? -yes, we kissed by accident. I would have liked a more romantic moment, but it was okay. the rest of the trip, Lucy followed us. every place i said i wanted to go to, Lucy said she had been planning on visiting, too! -wow, so i guess Lucy was with you the whole time! at least, she helped you have your first kiss with Carl. -yes, she's a great friend and a very nice person and i'm sure she meant well but good intentions can sometimes do more harm than good. next time i plan a romantic trip, I'll make sure i don't tell anybody about it!

@@arukisubiki This very helpful. The original has a grammar mistake (which you accurately repeated). "she had been watching Carl and I together" should be "she had been watching Carl and me together." The word "me" is the accusative form of the first-person singular. It should be used because the Lucy had been watching her. To make it clear, think of the sentence without "Carl and": "She had been watching me."

And I would like you to add the list of all those phrasal verbs that were in this video at the end of the video as you did that before but with this translation of the phrasal verbs. Anyway thank you so much for making these super helpful video lessons!

Can you explain to me why is in the sentence - had been marking the day off the calender...- in the past perfect continuous? Didn't Carl invited her at first, and then she was marking the day off?? I guess " the inviting" took as first place ...oh its so difficult ;(
@reinette_croissant3 жыл бұрын
Because she used the word "since," which means "after." So yes, Carl had invited her several weeks before the trip, and then when the trip finally happened, she had been marking off the days ever SINCE he had invited her.
