<!-- (Audio) Brian: True, but if we ignore different perspectives, we could end up with a less effective solution. --> <!-- SPEAKING -->

--instructions--

Listen to the audio and answer the question below.

--questions--

--text--

How could Lisa tell Brian she thinks his argument makes sense, even if she's not sure of it?

--answers--

I guess you're right.

--audio-id--

ENb4ef7e36


None of this makes sense to me.

--audio-id--

EN5a77fa7a

--feedback--

Using this sentence, Lisa would be telling Brian she does not think what Brian's saying is logical for her.

--video-solution--

1

--explanation--

Using I guess, you are telling other people you believe something is true, although you're not 100% sure of it.

If you say I guess you're right, you agree with the other person, but you're also implying you're not so certain of it. For example:

  • Person 1: You should try eating less sweets. This will help you stay healthy.

  • Person 2: I guess you're right. - This means that you think what the speaker is saying makes sense, though you're not totally convinced of it.
