Words of module 10: Staying
Reviews practise both sides: wherever Lukas and Lena would say something differently, you do it once as each.
In this module you learned to
- talk about my plans and book a room on the phone
- introduce myself fully and answer questions about my work, my languages and my past
- invite someone, accept or refuse politely and suggest another day
- say whose things are and when they went missing
- announce a decision and give reasons, thank people and invite a friend to visit
