Comprehension through subtitles. We're familiar with that. But using an electronic device to generate your German produces RUBISH. Here's a glimpse:
I promise NEVER ask more of my students than they can fairly deliver using their current language knowledge of the German language. When you write in German, use words you know. PLEASE DO NOT USE ELECTRONIC TRANSLATORS! The translator will be graded, not you (and the grade I give them will be nasty, with particularly hilarious results ending up on this blog; fair warning, right?).
Wie Lustig! Es macht kein Sinn.

ReplyDeleteI've put my spanish work through a translator just to see how it would come out, and it is never right, so I know that it does not work. Sometimes I may use it just for one word if I cannot find it anywhere, but that is the only case!
ReplyDeleteI read an article similar to this a while ago, hilarious, a simple sentence came out as something completely different.
