Hola! Com anem?
This lesson will teach you some shopping vocabulary, from knowing different types of shops, to asking at what time they open and close and recognising signs, to asking the shop assistant for help.
We hope you enjoy it. Thank you very much for listening. We really appreciate you following along and are so glad that we can help you with your Catalan. Please keep sharing and rating to get the podcast out to more people so that we can get as many people as possible speaking the beautiful language that is Catalan :)

Hola! Com va tot?
This lesson focuses on medical situations, including emergencies and how to get help/call an ambulance, but also things that you might need to say at the doctor's to explain how you are ill, or asking for medication at the pharmacy.
We hope you enjoy it! Feel free to get in touch with any questions or even ideas for language to cover in future episodes.

Hola! We missed you!
So after 20 weeks of weekly posting, it has caught up to us and at the moment with the busy house move and lots going on in our lives, we have decided to go bi-weekly on the podcasts (just temporarily until we are settled into our new place!).
We hope you understand! There will still be weekly content on the Patreon so if you want to try that out we are offering you a 7 day free trial, so you can see if you like it and decide to cancel any time! Click the link below to find out more.
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!
We hope you enjoy the episode! Please rate and subscribe to our show :)

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!
