Practical examples

Since working with a colleague, I have practised more regularly.

منذ أن بدأت التدريب مع زميل، صرت أتدرب بانتظام أكبر.

However, partners need similar goals and a clear plan.

لكن الشريكين يحتاجان إلى أهداف متقاربة وخطة واضحة.

I would therefore suggest agreeing on a topic before each meeting.

لذلك، أقترح الاتفاق على موضوع قبل كل لقاء.
