Translate & vote - from English to Nederlands


English phrase to TRANSLATE:
During a language exchange, if you partner knows your native language, we insist that your mother tongue should only be allowed to clarify single/isolated words.
Yet, it should not discourage beginners or members who are not used to this approach. This method is designed to ensure maximum practice in the target language and the least possible use of your mother tongue.
Ultimately, this simple rule will enable the participants to focus on the study in point. It does not matter if the language exchange is geared towards beginners, intermediate or advanced learners. All language students need to train orally, regardless of their proficiency.

Tijdens een taaluitwisseling, moedigen we aan dat je je moedertaal alleen gebruikt om aparte woorden te omschrijven, als je partner jouw taal kent.
Dit moet echter geen beginners of leden ontmoedigen die niet gewend zijn aan deze methode. Deze methode is ontworpen voor de grootste hoeveelheid praktijk in de doeltaal en het minst mogelijke gebruik van je moedertaal.
Uiteindelijk zal deze simpele regel het voor de deelnemers mogelijk maken om op de studie te focussen. Het maakt niet uit of de taaluitwisseling gericht is op beginnend lerenden, gevorderd lerenden of vergevorderd lerenden. Alle taalstudenten moeten trainen door te luisteren, ongeacht hun taalvermogen.
