Word Order Dictation: Place and Time Details

B1 Level

English Exercises is teacher-led by Charlie. About the teacher · How content is made

Hear each place or time detail as a complete group. A time phrase may open the sentence, while another sentence puts its time at the end after the place. Both arrangements can be natural, so grammar alone cannot tell you which was spoken. Keep the opening you hear, then follow the main action and any later detail. Do not split a location phrase or move it to a preferred position. I'd replay the start and finish if I remembered the meaning but was unsure of the sequence.
