Language Letters

It’s the first day of week 3! Already! Did you try to do today’s task where we were asked to introduce someone in German? I actually did it for two people. It was not so easy to focus only on the sentences we already learned. I tried to keep it really simple, but there were quite a couple of words that I didn’t know how to say yet.

It’s a good thing that we have programs like Google Translate or ChatGPT! They really helped me, even if it was just to confirm the sentences I came up with. I just entered my very simple (!) sentences in English and the program translated them into German. When something seemed off or too complicated, I rephrased my English prompt. I also took some notes in my notebook so that I can practice these texts well and so that next time I see these people, I can tell them what I have learned! Even if they won’t understand it, I know it’ll make me feel proud - and I have something like a deadline, a goal to work towards.

Would you like to try doing that too? Simply tell your mother, your friend, your colleague, whoever you chose, that you learned how to introduce them in German, and ask them to listen to you saying it.
