range of language allowing his/her to select a formulation to express him/herself clearly in an appropriate style.
Consistently maintains a high
degree of grammatical accuracy; errors are rare, difficult to spot and generally corrected when they occur.

and spontaneously, almost effortlessly, only a conceptually difficult subject can hinder a natural, smooth flow of language.
Can select a suitable phrase from
a readily available range of discourse functions to relate his/her own contributions to those of other speakers.
Has a sufficient range of language
to be able to give clear descriptions, express viewpoints on most general topics, without much searching for words.
Shows a relatively high degree of
grammatical control. Does not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of his/her mistakes.
Can produce stretches of
language with a fairly even tempo; although he/she can be hesitant as he or she searches for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses.
Has enough language to get by,
with sufficient vocabulary to express him/herself with some hesitation on topics such as family, hobbies and exc.
Uses reasonably accurately a
repertoire of frequently used routines and patterns associated with more predictable situations.
Can keep going comprehensibly,
even though pausing for grammatical and planning and repair is very evident, especially in longer stretches of free production.
Can initiate dialogue, take his/her
turn when appropriate and end conversation when he/she needs to, though he/she may not always do this elegantly. Can help the discussion along, confirming statements, inviting others in, etc. Can start, maintain and close a simple face-to-face conversation on topics that are familiar or of personal interest. Can repeat what someone has said to confirm.
Uses basic sentence patterns with
memorised phrases, groups of a few words and formulate them in order to communicate limited information in simple everyday situations.
Uses some simple structures
correctly, but still systematically makes basic mistakes.
Can make him/herself understood
in very short utterances, even though pauses, false starts and reformulation ere very evident.
Can answer questions and
respond to simple statements. Can indicate when he/she is following but is rarely able to understand enough to keep conversation going of his/her own part.
Has a vey basic repertoire of words
and simple phrases related to personal details and particular concrete situations.
Shows only limited control of a
few simple grammatical structures and sentence patterns in a memorised repertoire.
Can manage very short, isolated,
mainly pre-packaged sentences with much pausing to search for expressions, to articulate less familiar words, and to repair communication.
Can ask and answer questions
about personal details. Can interact in a simple way but communication is totally dependent on repetition, rephrasing and repair.
