2. Oral English: The score is quantified from pronunciation (30%), fluency (30%), grammar (20%), vocabulary (10%), and content (10%), with reference to CEFR and the official Arabic scoring criteria. The pronunciation score can be detected by speech recognition technology to detect features such as throat sound and trill.
