It can very helpful, however, that we memorise a few expressions and use very short and general questions and answers, and avoid getting into too many details. This video is a good example of what I’m saying.
Where’s Namdaemun?
Grade 5 Lesson 5 from Fisherman on Vimeo.
This other video from Real English, however, is a bit more difficult. The speakers talk much more quickly, and the names of the streets may cause us some difficulty.
Self-study activity:
Several people are asked about street directions. Stop after each person and note down both the question and the answer. You can self-correct the activity with the second part of the video, where the same situations are repeated, but this time you have subtitles that can help you fully understand the speakers' exact words.
Self-study activity:
Get together with an English-speaking friend and download some of the activities to practise street directions from Boggles World ESL. As you can see, all the language which has to do with questions and answers is very simple and general.
