Every scene on the Scenario Map ends with a number out of one hundred. It is not a grade on you; it is a description of the three minutes you just spent. Here is what goes into it.
The four parts
- Grammar accuracy, 40 points. The share of your sentences that needed no correction. Prima corrects everything in the flow, but only the slips that changed meaning or would embarrass you count here.
- Vocabulary variety, 25 points. How many different words you used for the situation, weighted against the level. A Beginner who orders "a coffee, a big coffee, a coffee with milk" is doing fine; an Advanced learner is expected to reach for "a flat white, to go, no sugar".
- Pace, 20 points. Words per minute against the band you are in: 60 to 95 at A, 90 to 130 at B, 115 to 165 at C. Faster is not better; inside the band is.
- The objective, 15 points. Did you do the thing the scene asked for? Order for two, change one item, pay, ask for the wifi. Fully done is fifteen, partly done is seven.
Why eighty
Eighty is the score you get when you did the thing, spoke at a natural pace for your level, and made a handful of slips. It is deliberately reachable in two or three tries. The map is there to structure your time, not to gate it; the only thing a pass unlocks is the next scene, and the only thing a fail costs you is another three minutes with a patient barista.
What the score is not
It is not your level. Your level moves only when you say so, or when Prima notices three sessions in a row that were far too easy or far too hard and asks you first. It is not your streak; a bad scene still counts as a day spoken. And free talk is never scored at all.
