what is the most idiomatic way of translating “class” in the context of sport e.g. “yoga class” or “hitt class”
Good question!
I think people usually say “Ich bin/war beim Yoga/Hiit”. Maybe also “Kurs” oder “Session”. But definitely not “Unterricht” oder “Klasse”.
Okay thanks. Actually I did wonder about “Kurs” too but its not in the dictionary so I can’t ask this question there:
You wouldn’t really use “course” in this sense of “a session” in english as course generally sounds like a longer/ medium term thing with the emphasis on learning something and doesn’t work so well for a single session. But I’m assuming its fine to use “Kurs” for a session in german ?
Meh, to me not really, unless you say “Ich habe heute Yoga-Kurs.”, which would imply you always go around this time.
