Benvinguts i benvingudes de nou! This episode will teach you how to use the conditional tense to talk about hypothetical things - things you 'would' do... But not just 'you', as you will learn all the pronouns so you can easily manipulate lots of verbs to include talking about other people.

Hola!
We have made it to episode 30! This episode brings together our knowledge from the last 4 lessons and earlier episodes too.
We have a quiz as always, this time focussing on vocabulary, and then we have a dialogue using lots of language from the last 4 lessons especially, but we also recap a lot of the basics learnt in the first few episodes - let's hope you haven't forgotten them!
It's a long one, and we debated splitting it and using some of it in the bonus episode, however we want to make as much free content for you as possible. It took us a long time to record this one as there were planes flying past our house every 3 minutes! So we hope you appreciate the effort haha.
Let us know how you scored out of 20 and whether you managed to follow the conversation!
