  • {{situations}} — the everyday situations your team handles (e.g., greetings, directions, emergencies)

Instructions

  3. Include a phonetic pronunciation guide for each phrase to help non-native speakers.
  4. Add a brief cultural note for each situation to ensure appropriateness and avoid misunderstandings.
