Show Notes

What does "little mouse" and "cereal" or "trade" and "shower" have in common?  The word pairs sound very similar in Bärndütsch!  After discussing strategies to overcome like-sounding words, Simu and I translate cleverly worded advertisements from Bernmobile.

The skill level for today's episode is A2 (CEFR) or Novice high (ACTFL Guidelines).
