How do I get my sprite to talk while moving?

I'm just jumping into this Scratch thing and so far I am enjoying it.  However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make my sprite glide over to the middle of the page while saying something.  I can get it to glide and then say it but I was hoping there was a way to make the two things happen at the same time.

you can use two separate scripts. use a "broadcast" which can be found in the control blocks. you will "broadcast" a message which will start another script. so put the broadcast before your glide and make the script receive it and say what you want.

another way is to use the "say" block which stays there until removed. put it before the glide. you can remove a say bubble by deleting everything in the text box to make an empty say block.

Example:

when i receive [talk v]
say [Hello!]
glide (3) secs to x: (30) y: (40)
say [ ] for (0) secs
