About this lesson

Two flatmates look for a free room for a friend. Upstairs there is a room with a big window, and the rent is not bad.

How to practise

  1. Read how the pattern works on the first card, then listen to each example sentence.
  2. Repeat every example out loud in the 跟读 · Your turn pause: the pattern should start to feel automatic.
  3. At the end, check the common mistake and say the practice sentence yourself.
