This worksheet is based on a two-minute video clip of lots of native speakers saying random short phrases in a variety of languages. It was designed as an activity for the European Day of Languages on 26 September. Students watch the video to find the authentic French, German and Spanish translations for the phrases on their sheet.

Some of the phrases in the clip itself are colloquial, so please watch the video before sharing it to check its suitability for your class. The video is accessible via a link in the teaching notes to an article on the Independent website and includes subtitles in the original language and in English.
