MATTAPOISETT — The Free Public Library will offer a chance to learn some friendly greetings and conversational phrases in other languages throughout the month of February. Community members will share some basics from their native languages in a casual informal setting. 

There will be one class for each language, with the low–pressure sessions lasting thirty minutes. Participants will and leave with a list of words and phrases to practice and try them out with neighbors or on travels. 

On Feb. 16, a Portuguese speaker will host their first session from 1 to 1:30 p.m.
