Salman: just there was a cup of tea….

Jawad: a cup of tea? Whatever it was, so if you says that I…..( indistinct sounds of all group members)

Muhsin: you must answer in a minimum possible way.

Jawad: Not in a minimum possible way

(indistinct conversation)

Salman: listen to me… if you ask me “ what did you eat in your breakfast?” and I say there was a cup of

Jamil: I have a question in this quality maxim , if we don’t know- the person who is giving us

Indistinct sounds of all members.

Sher Afsar: Quality maxim is that your conversation should be quality like. Some of the people are

Jawad: Sherafsara you are becoming too much personal. This is not good.

Muhsin: Why did you sat that Salman is not trusted?

Jawad: so you are stating quality maxim ,right?

Salman(addressing sher afsar): Don’t vex us go forward.

Muhsin: You must speak the truth.

Sher Afsar: No. This is not.

Jawad: Speak the truth not, speak the fact. Right. Speak what is correct.
