Decir que means "to say that"
¿cómo estàs?
carlos replied with “good, thanks” so we can assume pedro asked him “how are you?”
For this case what we should do is to choose each of the expressions used in Spanish to reject an invitation.
We have then:
1) Me encantaría pero...
It is a phrase that usually comes with a reason that says why you will not accept the invitation
2) En otra ocasión tal vez...
In this sentence you are already saying that you can not attend the invitation.
3) Qué lástima pero...
It is a phrase that shows repentance, followed by an explanation of why you will not accept the invitation.
4) Cuanto lo lamento pero...
It is an expression that demonstrates the same meaning of expression number 3.
1. Deseo
2. Recibe
3. Atienden
4. Puedo
The complete translation with the selected words would be:
Good morning Journalist, I hope that Amelia Ruiz welcomes me. Good morning receptionist. Sorry, but Amelia and her team are not going to see anyone today. Can I see her secretary?
