We could not make out what he was saying.
or
We could not catch on what he was saying.
Explanation:
- Phrasal verbs are demonstrated as a group of two or three words functioning together as a single lexical unit.
- These are quite commonly employed in informal conversations to signal actions.
- These phrases consist of a verb followed by a particle that could be a preposition or adverb and convey a meaning distinct from the combined meaning of these words.
- In the given sentence, the formal expression 'understand' can be replaced by the phrasal verb 'make out', 'catch on', or 'figure out' in informal language.
- Thus, the final sentence may read differently as:
- 'We could not make out what he was saying.'
- 'We could not figure out/make out what he was saying.'
