<!-- (Audio) Anna: That's a valid point. However, we've been using collaboration tools to keep everyone connected. It takes some adjustment, but once people get used to it, it works quite well. --> <!-- SPEAKING -->

--instructions--

Listen to the audio and answer the question below.

--questions--

--text--

What would David say to acknowledge Anna's viewpoint while expressing his own?

--answers--

You're completely wrong about remote work.

--audio-id--

ENf9bb25aa

--feedback--

This response does not acknowledge Anna's viewpoint and is too strong for a balanced discussion.


I see your perspective, but I still think there's value in having everyone in the office.

--audio-id--

--video-solution--

2

--explanation--

I see your perspective, but is a polite way to acknowledge someone's viewpoint before introducing a contrasting opinion. This phrase helps keep discussions respectful and open. For example:

  • Person 1: We should use a new programming language for this project.

  • Person 2: I see your perspective, but switching languages might slow us down. - This person understands the idea but points out a possible drawback.
