Oral Comprehension – Level 4
In predictable situations, level 4 listeners can understand the meaning of a simple conversation or message. They can, for example, situate information in time (past, present, future) thanks to time markers and understand simple frequency markers. They can also understand the main information in an announcement (who? what? when? where?).
