Greetings and introductions
Start with “hello,” “goodbye,” “please,” “thank you,” and “sorry.” Then add the phrases “What is your name?”, “My name is...”, “Where are you from?” and “Nice to meet you.”
Misunderstandings and requests
Particularly useful phrases are “I don’t understand,” “Please speak more slowly,” “Please repeat,” and “What does that mean?” They allow you to continue the conversation even with a small vocabulary.
Shopping and cafes
Learn the names of money, map, water, coffee, food and store. Practice the questions “How much does it cost?”, “Can I pay by card?” and “I would like this.”
Road and transport
Useful words are “street”, “city”, “station”, “ticket”, “car” and the phrases “Where is the station?”, “I need a ticket”, “When does the train leave?”
Health and Safety
Remember the expressions “I need help,” “Call a doctor,” “I don’t feel well,” and “Be careful.” It is better to repeat such phrases along with pronunciation.
How to secure material
Listen to each phrase, say it out loud, choose a translation and find pairs. Return to the erroneous cards until the answer is certain.
