Heard Every Word but Still Confused? Ask These Questions in English

You heard the English clearly—but you're still not sure what it means. What can you ask next? Join Daniel and Maya for a practical English lesson on asking for clarification, checking details, and making sure you know what to do before saying “Okay.” You'll practise how to: • Ask someone to repeat the part you missed. • Ask what an unfamiliar phrase means. • Check a time, deadline, number, or instruction. • Ask another question when the first explanation doesn't help. The situations include a meeting moved to the wrong time, a delivery price, workplace slides, an online form, and a provisional booking. There are short speaking turns so you can try your own answers before hearing an example. Best suited to intermediate English learners around B1–B2. Listen, answer aloud, and pause whenever you need more thinking time. SUBTITLES English, Vietnamese, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), French, and Indonesian subtitles are available. Turn on CC and choose your language in Settings → Subtitles/CC. Missing a language you need? Let me know in the comments.
