Arc 10 in "Walls That Speak" applies Community & Social Connection language to practical communication tasks at the Fluency level. Key terms such as documenting, celebrating, memorial, teenager appear repeatedly, while the dominant modal_verbs pattern gives you a stable structure for controlled repetition across roughly 2 sentences.
Modal verbs add layers of meaning to English sentences, expressing ability, possibility, permission, obligation, and probability. Unlike regular verbs, modals don't change form for person or tense and are followed by bare infinitives (can go, must leave). Understanding modal distinctions is crucial: "must" expresses strong obligation while "should" suggests advice; "can" indicates ability or permission while "may" sounds more formal; "might" and "could" express tentative possibility. Modal perfect forms (could have gone, should have known) refer to past possibilities and regrets. Mastering modals enables precise communication of attitude, certainty level, and social relationships. These small words carry significant interpersonal weight in English interaction.
Start Arc 10 by scanning the full transcript once, then read each line out loud at a steady pace. Use punctuation as breathing markers and pause slightly on commas so your delivery stays natural instead of rushed. This Fluency lesson includes 1 exercises, so complete one full pass before you repeat difficult lines. A full round takes about 1 minute, which makes this page ideal for focused daily speaking reps. Target terms include documenting, celebrating, memorial, teenager, accident.
The self-monitoring loop activated during reading aloud lets you detect pronunciation errors in real time, which is far more effective than waiting for external correction. This Community & Social Connection lesson gives you topic-specific rehearsal rather than isolated sentence practice. Key vocabulary in this arc includes documenting, celebrating, memorial, teenager, accident, so repeated retrieval improves both precision and retention. The dominant sentence profile is modal_verbs, so focus on consistent stress placement and boundary control. You will process about 41 words across 1 exercises and 2 sentences, enough volume to consolidate the target pattern. A full pass takes roughly 1 minute at natural speed, which fits focused daily reps. As articulation becomes automatic, cognitive load drops and more attention can shift to prosody and meaning — turning passive understanding into confident speech.
