I now do 30 minutes of German before grading student work. And especially before grading oral exams.
It’s really helping me to feel some humility. Everybody needs some humility but I need it more than most.
I’m trying to pronounce correctly. But it’s coming out weird, and I can hear it’s weird. The Duolingo bot keeps mistaking my Deutsch for durch. And when I said Leute, it heard something so bad that the whole system shut down.
I can truly envision visits from police in the future because a chatbot misheard and snitched on you.
