The Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) is the international standard for measuring language proficiency. It’s used by schools, employers, and language apps worldwide.
| Level | Name | You can… | Words |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | Beginner | Introduce yourself, order food, ask directions | ~500 |
| A2 | Elementary | Handle daily routines, describe your background | ~1,200 |
| B1 | Intermediate | Discuss opinions, travel independently, describe experiences | ~2,500 |
| B2 | Upper Intermediate | Follow news, debate topics, write essays | ~4,000 |
| C1 | Advanced | Use language flexibly, understand implicit meaning, work in target language | ~6,000 |
| C2 | Mastery | Understand virtually everything, express yourself precisely | ~8,000+ |
Not sure which level? Start with A1 if you’re a complete beginner. If you already know some words, try A2 or B1. Word counts are cumulative — B1 assumes you already know the A1 and A2 vocabulary.
A Trip Kit is a 50-phrase travel deck for people who want a few phrases before a trip, not a language course: ten phrases a day for five days, plus the numbers 1–10 as a bonus.
Every card has a pronunciation you can say, an example exchange and a tip on what catches tourists out. Day one is the ten phrases travelers say mattered most.
Trip Kits sit outside the CEFR ladder and repeat some A1 words on purpose. Finished the fifty? The Travel & Tourism deck for that language is the next step.
