I don't understand.

--audio-id--

ENd6da13d0

--feedback--

This phrase suggests confusion, but Anna needs to show agreement with Bob's idea.


That makes sense.

--audio-id--

ENc50c4990

--video-solution--

2

--explanation--

That makes sense is a natural way to show agreement. People use this phrase in conversations when they accept or understand a suggestion. For example:

  • Person 1: We should optimize the code before adding new features to avoid performance issues.

  • Person 2: That makes sense. A slow app will frustrate users. - This person agrees and understands why optimizing the code first is a good idea.
