    Speaking is a complex language skill to assess that focuses on informal language use and tests five key components: pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. One challenge in evaluating speaking ability is determining whether to assess pronunciation for phonemic and allophonic accuracy or just comprehensibility. Common speaking test item types include pronouncing words in isolation and sentences, reading aloud, retelling stories, and oral interviews that start with personal details before questioning and are marked after the student leaves to reduce anxiety.
