AI explanationShows the answer. Tap to open.
Printed "claim", the speaker says "coral"

Explanation: Listen again to "this one being a, a coral". "claim" is on the page, not in the audio, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "eruption", the speaker says "activity"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "remnants of volcanic activity". The page shows "eruption", not the audio. They start with different letters, so listen carefully.

Printed "intermingled", the speaker says "intertwined"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "These are all intertwined, and". "Intermingled" appears on the page, not the audio. Both words end the same, so listen for the middle part.

Printed "redeemed", the speaker says "recorded"

Explanation: The speaker says "that are recorded and handed", not "redeemed". "Redeemed" is shown on the page, not heard, so check the middle of the word.

"Zenith" matches the audio

Explanation: "play a significant role in Zenith, Zenith, cast traditions" repeats the name, so it may look odd. The speaker says Zenith exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"artefact" matches the audio

Explanation: "form of song, story, dance, ceremony and artefact" uses a less common spelling, so it may seem wrong. The speaker says artefact exactly as printed, so do not click it.
