A whole conversation that went wrong. Find each problem and write the message that fixes it.

One way to repair it

After you have tried, compare with this:

Nadeesha · message 2, repaired

Some details are wrong. The discount is 20%, not 50%. We have only one shop, in Kandy, and we don't offer free delivery. Please remove anything I didn't tell you.

The sale starts on Friday 11 April and ends on Sunday 20 April.

Keep the friendly Avurudu greeting.

Nadeesha · message 3, repaired
Good. Now add our phone number: 077 123 4567. Keep everything else the same.
Nadeesha · message 4, repaired
Now remove the hashtags and add one line: "We also stitch saree blouses." Keep everything else the same.

බලන්න: එක message එකකට එක වැඩක්. හැම පාරම "Keep everything else the same". AI එක හදපු බොරු තොරතුරු (50%, Colombo showroom, free delivery) පැහැදිලිවම අයින් කරලා. දිනය හරියටම. ඒ තමයි Level 3.

Level 3 in your track

One more repair

AI: The Battle of Danture was fought in 1594 between the Kandyan kingdom and the British.

Your repair
Check that again. I think it was against the Portuguese, not the British. How sure are you about the date, and which parts might be wrong?

That's Level 3 done. 🎉 Next comes Level 4: Real projects.
