1002 - How To Check Understanding

Have you ever been in a conversation in English and suddenly thought… “Wait. I didn’t catch that.” Maybe someone was speaking too fast. Maybe they used a word you don’t know.

Well here’s the good news. Checking understanding and getting clarification is a natural part of a conversation in any language - even English. And today, I’m going to show you how you can do that.
