Transferaufgabe
Rewrite the situation using your own day, place or preference, then say it aloud without looking.
Merkblatt Use Lei forms with adult strangers and in formal interactions, and tu with friends or where invited. Vorrei… is a useful polite request. In the examples, caffè means coffee; specify the drink you want rather than assuming the same café terminology everywhere. Keep doubled consonants and final vowels audible. Regional accents are valid.
Match the phrase to the situation: listen to the reply and ask a follow-up rather than reciting the whole list.
