How a language meetup works

At a language meetup people sit at tables, often split by language. You join the table of the language you want to practise and switch later if you like. All levels are welcome.

Everyone is there to talk, so conversation is the whole point. That makes it easy to start, even if you know nobody.

Questions

Can I come alone?
Yes. Almost everyone comes alone, that is exactly what these meetups are for.
Do I need to speak the language well already?
No. Beginners are just as welcome as fluent speakers.
What is the difference between a tandem and a language meetup?
A tandem is two people who teach each other their languages. A language meetup is an open group with several people and languages. At a meetup you often find a tandem partner too.
Does a language meetup cost anything?
Most language meetups in Bern are free. The price is on each date.
