Transformations and reformulation

Rebuild the same meaning with a different grammatical or discourse frame.

01 · How to use this set

Start from the communication job

Rebuild the same meaning with a different grammatical or discourse frame.

Read the frame, try to complete your own sentence before opening an example, then compare the English structure with its German parallel. The point is retrieval and choice, not passive list reading.

C1 Control

A useful next step from the same learning path.

01Systems thinkingTrace second-order effects, bottlenecks, local optimisation, and the drivers that keep a problem recurring.02Decision quality and trade-offsCompare options by explicit criteria, weigh the cost of delay, and preserve useful flexibility when certainty is impossible.03Causal diagnosisSeparate triggers from causes, compare mechanisms, and diagnose causal structure without treating sequence as proof.04Hypothesis testingTurn explanations into testable predictions, seek discriminating evidence, and revise claims when the data require it.
