Strategy
Useful filler phrases help you avoid silence in the Sproochentest. A short phrase such as 'I think' or 'let me think' is better than stopping completely. The goal is not to sound elegant. The goal is to keep control of the answer while you search for the next simple sentence.
Short Luxembourgish filler phrases you can use to stay in motion while you think.
