When phrases alone aren't enough

1. The lookup table
Emergency phrases and the 110 / 120 / 119 dial plan, showable at a glance.
2. The trigger matrix
Which situation needs which phrase, so you show the right one first.
3. Offline printable version
The whole phrase kit as a printable card for low-signal moments.
The notice is on the wall. The parcel still has your name on it.
Ask it once, get one answer — not four things to read.
Voice first, screen second — the screen is what actually lands.
If nothing works
If you are alone and the phone is not working:
- Go to the nearest hotel, shop or uniformed staff and show the phrase.
- Use a translation app's voice to call for help aloud.
- Flag down a passerby and show “我需要帮助”.
Four levels deep — being understood never rests on one try.
Pointing at the screen is understood everywhere.
