The idea
Correct a misunderstood detail politely and confirm the revised plan. Focus on one changed element so the partner can follow the repair. Read the task before the model. Identify the information you need, make your own attempt, and compare it with the specific evidence in the six sentences. The examples are learning material; follow your examination provider's current instructions when working on an official paper.

Watch out
A repair should identify both the incorrect detail and its replacement. Saying nein alone leaves the problem unresolved.
