SERU Mock
SERU in Urdu, Bengali and Arabic: which language is the test in?
The SERU assessment is taken in English. TfL uses it to check your English reading and writing. You cannot take SERU in Urdu, Bengali, Arabic or Romanian.
The test language
TfL says reading and writing are not tested separately. SERU is the evidence of your English reading and writing at level B1. For this reason the test is in English. We found nothing on TfL’s pages about a translated version.
How translations help
Learning a rule in your first language is faster. On this site every SERU explanation is in English and also in Urdu, Bengali, Arabic and Romanian. You can switch the language on each question.
Use the translations to understand why a rule exists. Then read the English question again, because you will need to read it in English on the day.
A good method
- Read the question in English.
- Answer it.
- Read the explanation in English, then in your language.
- Learn the key English word for the rule: for example, operator, booking, licence, badge.

We cannot say how well any translation will fit every learner. If a sentence in your language is not clear, read the English again, and use the handbook section named on the question.
