How to Encounter Defense Language Aptitude Battery?

Your previously acquired foreign language skills may not be helpful while encountering defense language aptitude battery, especially when your native language is English. A fake language is created, fake grammatical rules are designed and fake phonetic coding is offered. But neither your answers nor your results are fake.

On the other hand your English language skills may contribute in understanding the basic structure in fake language that the tester may develop. English language is native to me. This page may be helpful to to discover the smart ways to prepare before encountering defense language aptitude battery.

Important Tips

Make it clear that there are no specific study guides available for Defense Language Aptitude Battery. The reason is that every tester builds his own fake language and fake grammar. A guide written for one test my not be suitable for another. However, if you focus upon the following tips, you may score better.

Grammar and Syntax

If you don't have good understanding of English language grammar and syntax, your fluency is not sufficient. You need to know how verbs, objectives, adjectives and possessives work?

Manipulation of Grammatical Rules

As you would be offered fake rules so you must have ability to manipulate the current grammar rules. When you are given a rule that adjectives follow nouns, then it's not a 'blue dog' no matter how many times audio repeats it, it's a 'dog blue.'

Structure of Sentences

You should know how English sentences are constructed i.e. Subject-Verb-Object. Recognize accentuation, syllable breaks, word patterns etc.

For example you want to be a German linguist. Observe how the sentences differ from those of English. A good way is to know the letters pronounced in other languages

Repetition of Questions

Keep your ears open to audio portion of the exam as there is no repetition of the questions. There is a question then a small pause for you to answer, then another question. If you cannot answer one question, don't think and concentrate on the beginning of next question. Be careful in this part.
