Practice Making Plans in Katalanska
Making plans is one of the most useful real-world Katalanska skills: it requires future tenses, time expressions, suggestions, and the gentle back-and-forth of agreeing on a place. This scenario rehearses the entire planning conversation — proposing a day, suggesting an activity, picking a time and place, and confirming via text. You'll practise the Katalanska verbs for 'to suggest', 'to agree', 'to prefer', and the polite phrasing that lets you decline a suggestion without offence. By the end you'll organise an outing in Katalanska as easily as you would in English.
