3) Connect your answer
Use fordi for a reason, så for a result, and men for a contrast.
Jeg cykler, fordi det er billigt.

4) Speaking tip
Pause briefly to think, but keep the answer moving. A simple example is better than a long answer without a clear point.
Speaking tasks
Say these out loud. Use Listen when you want a model.
Answer directly
Give your answer in the first sentence instead of repeating the question.
Add an example
Use For eksempel or Et eksempel er to make the answer concrete.
