LabMeeting
Hi there
in this period i'm working on my thesis project in a laboratory. every week people that are working there organise a seminar to make the point regarding their data, conclusions, and so on. in this events i have to listen very carefully to understand all the informations, and now is so difficult for me to follow the discussion. however my problems are:
A - the vocabulary: a lot of times i don't understand because in a single sentence there are different words that i don't know or that i don't recognise;
B - i have to be partecipatory and ask questions or talk with the others aroud critics, probles or new ideas. the problem is that if i lost a part of the information, how can i make questions that have sense, or at least don't seems stupid?
it's just a remark aroud my problem, but if you have some advice principally related to a good method to improve my lessic, fluency and listening, it's welcome!
if you can also suggest me a little group of phrasal verbs that's very common or useful this can is a very important help for me ;)
i hope that this thought is at least understandable, sorry for the mistakes, and bye for now ;)

Bravo Fabrizio!.........BTW (a proposito) In English we say "MAKE SENSE" whereas in Italian you say "HA SENSO"... There are sooooooo many phrasal verbs in continuous common use in the English language that we, English speakers, barely notice them. It would be difficult to name "the most common or useful" ones. You must notice which ones are used commonly in the work/study that you are doing and make a point of understanding and remembering those first. Note the ones that are being used and bring them here if you need clarification.

Hi there
in this period Currently I'm working on my thesis project in a laboratory. Every week people that are working there organise a seminar to make the point regarding their data (present their data?), conclusions, and so on. in this During these events I have to listen very carefully to understand all the informations, and now it is so very difficult for me to follow the discussion. However, my problems are:
A - the vocabulary: a lot of times I don't understand because in a single sentence there are different multiple words that I don't know or that
I don't recognise;
B - I have to be partecipatory and ask questions or talk with the others around critics (? critiques?), problems, or new ideas. The problem is that if I have lost a part of the information, how can I make ask/pose questions that have make sense, or at least don't seems stupid?
It's just a remark around concerning my problem, but if you have some advice principally related to a good method to improve my lessic lexicon, fluency and listening, it's welcome!
If you can also suggest me a little group of phrasal verbs that's that are very common or useful this can would is be a very important help for me ;)
I hope that this thought is at least understandable, sorry for the mistakes, and bye for now ;)
