Abeer: Wow, Nadia! I think you look fabulous.
Dana: Yeah, me too! What an amazing dress, Nadia.
Nadia: Thanks, guys! It's second-hand. I bought it from a charity shop for five pounds.
Abeer: Really? Doesn't it feel strange to wear somebody else's old clothes?
Nadia: No, I don't think so. What do you mean?
Abeer: Well. Perhaps somebody died in it? I don't think I could wear second-hand clothes. What do you think, Dana?
Dana: No, I don't agree. I sometimes wear my mum's old things. If you ask me, it's nice you can give some old clothes a 'second life'.
Nadia: I totally agree. And in my opinion, the quality is much better than new clothes. No horrible synthetic materials …
Dana: I couldn't agree more!
