Lesson Transcript

Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, you’ll learn conversational phrases to answer the question, "What are you doing during the holiday?" After watching this video, you’ll be able to talk about your holiday plans.
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.
Vad ska du göra på Valborgsmässoafton?
Jag planerar att åka till stranden.
Once more with the English translation.
Vad ska du göra på Valborgsmässoafton?
“What are you doing for Walpurgis Night?”
Jag planerar att åka till stranden.
“I'm planning to go to the beach.”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “How's your mother?”
That's: Vad ska du göra på Valborgsmässoafton?

Listen to it again: Vad ska du göra på Valborgsmässoafton?, Vad ska du göra på Valborgsmässoafton?

For example:
