- How Talk picked them
- Part of Talk's everyday situations, 7 packs next to the Daily life in London set. We drafted 679 phrases people say in 18 everyday situations, from a queue and a taxi to a coffee shop and a walk. We left out the ones Talk's other packs already have. A phrase stays only if Talk's spoken videos say it with the same meaning. One review picked each moment, and a second tried to reject it. Each phrase comes with up to three moments. This pack holds the 14 for coffee shops and takeaways.
