COFFEE BREAK LANGUAGES
About this episode

In Lesson 22 of Coffee Break Swedish, we explore the words used for different body parts and learn how to describe any aches or pains we may feel in those body parts so that we can cope with a trip to the doctor or pharmacy. As health issues are at the forefront of everyone's mind at the moment, it's important to mention that this topic is standard in all of our Coffee Break courses across the languages we produce. We hope that you won't have to use this vocabulary in a Swedish-speaking area, but sometimes we have to visit the doctor or a pharmacy and explain our aches and pains. 


We are very aware that health issues are at the forefront of everyone's minds at the moment so it's important to mention that this topic is standard in all of our Coffee Break courses. We hope that you won't have to use this vocabulary in a Swedish-speaking area, but sometimes we have to visit the doctor or a pharmacy and explain our aches and pains.


Season 1 of Coffee Break Swedish features a total of 40 lessons, launching on 20th January 2020. If you'd like to benefit from video versions, lesson notes and bonus audio materials, you can access the premium version of Coffee Break Swedish in the Coffee Break Academy, available from 20 January 2020.
