After the planning stage, we move on to listening to a passage in a thick 1950s Derbyshire accent and trying to work out what it's saying. So I saved it for Saturday morning when Dave's out.
A question, and my reply:
“Did that take you further out of your comfort zone as a
Y031 student, or did you enjoy the opportunity to listen closely instead of
reading?”
My comfort zone is a distant memory. Even if the accent
is clear, I usually deal with the spoken word by reading the transcription.
It’s a new challenge, and that’s why I’m on this course.
