@Tony Marsh is there going to be a course like you did for Spanish?
Different ways of posing a yes / no question
So it occurs to me there are different ways to ask for confirmation. For example I might day “ were you a soldier before “ or I could say “ you were a soldier before, right?” They have a slightly different nuance. How should we incorporate this into our 123 matrix? Confirmation question (like English “…right?”) أنتَ كنتَ جنديًا من قبل، أليس كذلك؟ You were a soldier before, right? Or more informal: كنتَ جندي قبل… صح؟ You were a soldier before… right? 3 — Negation لم تكن جنديًا من قبل. You weren’t a soldier before
Have you experienced an OPI?
Oral Proficiency Interview -- where you simply answer questions in real time in your target language.

For sure this is my goal for Arabic. So far it’s the best certification I can find accessible for MSA. I might also try for Thai. I was going to ask about setting an 18 month goal for Arabic starting in January. Getting a certificate at the end of my Arabic mission is a healthy goal.
Paramedic OPI
I might ramble a bit on this. I work a security guard at a university and today acted as a translator between a paramedic and a Chinese student. I noticed that the conversation directly followed the 123 matrix and that drilling this type of interview might be fruitful. It’s just my mandarin is kinda “on a break” and the content is a bit to advanced for my Arabic.

@Jack Mason I remember googling “ secondary survey” questions before and trying to learn them in my target language. This type of thing is very useful. Similar things for law enforcement and dealing with 911 (999) calls.
