What should you say during an Uzbek lesson? How do you ask, thank, or request repetition in Uzbek?
In this lesson, we learn the most essential phrases and verbs for classroom communication: how to apologize for being late, how to say “I don’t understand,” how to ask the teacher a question. All this — with audio from native Uzbek speakers and examples in dialogues.
We will go over what students and teachers say in Uzbek class, and we’ll learn to respond and understand simple commands. These phrases are useful not only in class but also in everyday life.
