Speaking: Listen and Repeat
Practise the words and phrases that are hardest to say back accurately — stress patterns, weak forms and consonant clusters that trip up an otherwise strong speaker.
How to use these words: This task is about intelligible reproduction. A word you know but stress in the wrong place costs you here, so learn each entry with its stress pattern, not only its meaning.
