How many siblings do you have?
Speak as Jenny
Speak as Dan
Dan: I have three siblings. I have an older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister.
Jenny: Four children? Your house must have been chaotic when you were young.
Dan: Yes, it was. I'm not sure how my parents dealt with it.
Jenny: So, are you close with your siblings?
Dan: I am very close with my younger brother and sister. We see each other all the time. We all live in this area, so it is easy for us to get together.
Jenny: What about your older brother?
Dan: I love my older brother, but he has lived in Europe for the past 10 years. So, I don't get to see him a lot.
Jenny: I see. It's hard to have a very close relationship when somebody lives so far away.
Dan: That is exactly right.
