This episode teaches you language related to booking a room in a hotel.
Do you go half board? Full board? Single? Double? How many stars? How much per night? And plenty more!

Hola! Com estàs?
This lesson is another review lesson where we put everything we have done over the last four lessons to the test!
Follow along and see if you can beat Alex's score in this translation challenge!
Keep reading to find out how he did as we lost track of his score!...
Alex got 8/10 in the first half and 7/10 in the second half, so 15/20 altogether!
Not a bad score but he did need a fair bit of help and does still need to go over a lot of words! How are you finding the lessons? Are they too difficult? Too easy? Is it too much information to learn at this beginner stage? Christina is interested to hear your feedback so get in touch on any of our socials below!
Remember you can find detailed lesson notes and transcripts as well as bonus materials on our Patreon page. Becoming a Patron really helps us to keep this project going so we appreciate the support massively!
Thank you again to all our Patrons:

Join Alex on a translation challenge!

We review the last 4 lessons on the perfect tense, superlatives and talking about mental health/hobbies.

There are 10 sentences to translate from Catalan into English, and 10 from English into Catalan - they weren't easy so well done if you got some! Let us know your score!
