So why do you want to come to this university?
Ah well, it's mainly because of its language programs.
Ah… This uni's got a
decent
reputation and I'm keen on the curriculum as well.

Right and how do you think you're gonna fit in on campus?
Oh, I'm really looking forward to it.
From what I've read, the school has a rich campus life.
I'm very interested in joining the Outdoor club and maybe trying to run the student council.
Alright.
So, do you have any concerns about living in
halls of residence

No, not really.
I suppose a lot will depend on who else is living there, but I tend to get along with most people,
I do

I do

"I do"のように文尾に主語と動詞を置くことがウェールズ英語では見られることがある。コーパス言語学で言うところの「焦点前置」と呼ばれるもので、前述の主語と動詞を強調する。

So, do you have any reason not to come if you're accepted?
Well, it is a little far from home.
My parents would rather if I go to uni in my hometown.
But they'd be alright if I choose to go here.
OK.
