Recall drills — 126 more questions from the B1 words

These 126 drills are generated from the Gujarati B1 vocabulary list — the words of “Personal and Professional Communication” through “Home, Society, and Culture”, in both directions: recognition (word → meaning) and production (meaning → word). They re-ask what the course data already contains; no answer here was written by a machine, and a generated drill is practice, never a lesson.

Gujarati B1 beyond the drills — culture, reading, listening, idioms

These sections are written for Gujarati B1 specifically. The reading text is EkGuru's own; the culture note cites where its facts come from; the idioms and the mistakes list are the ones this level actually trips over.

Culture note

Gujarati professional life keeps two clocks: the meeting time and the time people arrive. A written agenda (કાર્યસૂચિ) exists, but the decisions are taken orally and confirmed afterwards in a short message. The register moves fast — આપ with a client, તમે in the office, તું between colleagues who have known each other for years — and choosing wrong is louder than any grammar mistake.

Source (named, not linked): en.wikipedia.org, the article “Gujarati people”.

Reading — read this aloud, slowly

What it says: Today's meeting had three points. On the first point everyone agreed. On the second point I had an objection, so I said, 'This proposal does not seem right to me, because there is little time.' In the end it was decided that we would first run a small trial. The third point was left for later. After the meeting I sent a short message.

Listening — one voice, one text

Use the speaker button to hear this text with a browser voice tagged gu-IN; playback starts only after a click. If no matching voice is installed, read it aloud yourself — the rhythm is the point.

What it says: Manager: How did the meeting go? Neighbour: Well. On the first point we agreed. Manager: On the second point? Neighbour: I had an objection, but it was decided that we would run a trial.

10 idioms and fixed phrases

The 3 mistakes this level makes

• મને આ સૂચન ઠીક લાગે છે નહીં. → મને આ સૂચન ઠીક લાગતું નથી. The negative of લાગે છે is લાગતું નથી.
• મેં વાંધો હતો. → મારો વાંધો હતો. The objection belongs to me: મારો વાંધો.
• નક્કી કર્યું કે પ્રયોગ કરીશું. → નક્કી થયું કે પ્રયોગ કરીશું. A collective decision is નક્કી થયું, not નક્કી કર્યું.

Your task

Run a three-point meeting and message the decision Take a real decision you have to take this week and write the Gujarati for it: the three agenda points, one line where you agree (સહમત છું), one line where you object with a reason (મને ઠીક લાગતું નથી, કારણ કે …), and the decision as it would be announced (નક્કી થયું કે …). Then write the short message you would send afterwards — a decision, an owner and a date. If the message has no date, the meeting did not decide anything.

After B1: the B1+ checkpoint

B1+ is not a certificate — it is the half-step between Gujarati B1 and the next level, and it is on this site’s ladder because language schools use it. You are at B1+ when you can work in the language, argue a point politely. Get there by working the recall drills above and the review deck until nothing on this page surprises you, then open the B2 pages.

Keep going
