speaking practice
Verbal fluency drills
Speaking practice is the act of deliberately exercising spoken language skills, typically when learning a foreign language.
The emphasis on practice distinguishes it from passive study—reading or listening—and implies active production: I need more speaking practice before my trip to Tokyo.
Language apps and tutors often structure sessions around speaking practice to build fluency and confidence.
