Q & A Phrases

Here is an excellent video I found on you tube of Q & A phrases. Briefs are given in the video for the phrases. The video also has sentences containing the phrases.
Here’s my hindsight is 20/20 advice: Learn these phrases as soon as you can after theory! If your school hasn’t implemented these phrases into their theory books, make sure that you study them!! These phrases will be extremely helpful when you are doing Q & A!

Here are some more briefs from the video:
