Mark’s continuing his trip to Austria in this lesson, and as usual he’s accompanied by Thomas who is helping him practise his language skills. This week Mark’s buying postcards and Thomas is buying sports shoes with his friend, Daniel. In this lesson you will:

• practise words and phrases for shopping scenarioes;
• learn about the expression könnte ich…? meaning “could I…?”;
• see further examples of German modal verbs and the word order rules associated with them;
• discover a new way to say “goodbye” in the south of Germany and Austria;
• practise different conversational structures.
