English term or phrase: oral comprehension

Does anyone know of a good way to say this in Swedish? A search through my dictionary didn't lead to anything conclusive. Am trying to convey in a letter how I've been listening to Spanish-language radio in an effort to boost my oral comprehension of that language. Any help greatly appreciated.

verbal förståelse

Explanation:
skulle jag slänga in ...
som motsatts till det "skrivna ordet" då.
talat vi om ett prov så är det ett hörförtåelseprov.
Googla "verbala förtåelse" så för du fler åsikter...
