BCE

Hello everybody!
Okay,next lesson...I seem to be going okay on this one but need a little help at the end.please tell me if I am correct.

Teacher: "Петя,вы учила етот диалог"
Петя: "нет,не учил"
Teacher: "наташа,вы что-нибудь училти"
Наташа: "Да я все учила"

Teacher:"Peter, (have) you learned that dialogue?"
Peter:"No,not "learned"
Teacher:"Natasha,you learned something/anything?
Natasha:"Yes, I learned everything"

I think I have translated it,however,how on earth to I pronounce BCE?
I think it means "everything"?..I just cant hear how she pronounces it?

As ever, thank you all so much for your patience.

Don't confuse всё with все
It goes like this:

All
Masc: Весь
Fem: Вся
Neut: Всё
Plu: Все

In your example it is Всё
Все means everybody, or is used with plural nouns:

Всё is pronounced fs'o.

Your dialouge is messed up:
Teacher: "Петя,вы учили етот диалог"
Петя: "нет,не учил"
Teacher: "наташа,вы что-нибудь учили"
Наташа: "Да я все учила"

Teacher:"Peter, have you learned this dialogue?"
Peter:"No, I have not (learned it)"
Teacher:"Natasha, have you learned anything?
Natasha:"Yes, I learned everything"

If Петя is a woman (i.e. Petra), then would not this sentence be correct?

No, this is not a women's name. Short for Пётр.

In addition to kalinka_vinnie's corrections:

"Петя,вы учили этот диалог?"

No. Firstly Петя is short for Пётр (Peter). Secondly, Вы ALWAYS takes plural forms, no matter if it reffers to one person (polite) or more than one person.

Лена, вы были дома?
Lena, were you at home?

Владимир, вы были дома?
Vladimir, were you at home?

Also, there should be a space after a comma, as in English.

Sorry to drift back, but all весь and its diminuitves mean everyone, everything, all?

These aren't diminutives... They are declined forms of Весь

It can mean all, all of, the whole, everything, eyeryone

Весь is used with masculine nouns:
Весь флот был в море - The whole navy / All of the navy was at sea.

Вся is used with femine nouns:
Вся группа здесь? - Is the whole group here?

Всё is used wither neuter nouns:
Он выпил всё вино! - He drank all the wine!
Всё can also be used by itself to mean everything: Всё будет хорошо! Everything will be OK

Все is used with plurals of nouns: Я знаю все твои секреты - I know all your secrets.
Все can also be used by itself to mean everyone: Все здесь? - Is everyone here?

Note, as you should alread expect, Весь changes for case too.
e.g.
Вся группа - The whole group (Nomintaive feminine)
Я видел всю группу - I saw the whole group (Accusative feminine)
