<!-- SPEAKING --> <!-- (Audio) David: Does that mean the app's launch will be delayed? I thought we were on track to release by the end of the week. -->

--instructions--

Listen to the audio and answer the question below.

--questions--

--text--

How will Jessica most likely respond if the delay is still uncertain?

--answers--

Yes, it's definitely delayed.

--audio-id--

EN6c04d763

--feedback--

This would be too strong if the situation isn't confirmed.


Not necessarily.

--audio-id--

--video-solution--

2

--explanation--

David is asking if the launch will be delayed. He seems unsure and wants confirmation.

If Jessica isn't certain yet, saying Not necessarily shows that a delay is possible, but not confirmed — it keeps the conversation open while avoiding a clear yes or no.
