Never saw that. Thank you. Learned something new again.
But when I use translationstools, I prefer to keep an eye on them. They tend to talk nonsense sometimes.
That ist why I only use languages I know. (No spanish)

It’s the same old problem – these tools make me feel unsure.
It’s fine when I’m speaking, mind you. But when it comes to writing, I suddenly can’t remember how to spell things.
I learnt English and French at school, yes. I can manage a bit of Italian, but only when reading.
And I’ve only just noticed this language setting in the browser. I think that’s what they call selective perception.

In dem Alter wird es schon schwierig. Und in der Schule muss man Vokabeln pauken, irgendwie. Als Erwachsener braucht man viel Motivation. -

Das war es, was mich am Latein gestört hat. Der Lehrer stand da und hat eine Fremdsprache auf deutsch erklärt. In der Parallelklasse die Lehrerin hat es gesprochen, ganz normal wie Englischunterricht.
Und als ich an der Uni Chinesisch probiert habe, das Gleiche: Auf Deutsch erklärt.
Wie soll man das dann aussprechen und formulieren lernen?Was sonst die Schule betrifft: 12 Jahre jeden Tag mind. 1 Stunde Englisch, da muss man nicht mehr viel lernen. Da bleibt immer was hängen.

Filme und nicht zuletzt das Internet. Wenn man andere Zeitungen lesen will oder sonst mal über den Rand schauen, ist Englisch unverzichtbar.
Und wenn man mit Amerikanern diskutiert, legt man auch die Scheu ab, dass man sich in Englisch nicht so ausdrücken kann... -

Als Erwachsener braucht man viel Motivation.@Boerps @energisch_ naja, wir hatten gerade unser erstes Kind bekommen, und mir wurde mit Peinlichkeitsgefühl bewusst, dass ich, obwohl ich ziemlich gut ausgebildet bin, keine Fremdsprachen sprach, und konnte nur idiomatische Englischsprach. Also ich beginnte einen Nachtkurs in Italien...

@energisch_ @Boerps währscheinlich Britischenglisch auch...definitv auf Nordenbritischenglisch...

@energisch_
Das hast du nett gesagt. Ich denke, das viele Amerikaner oft nicht nativ US sind.

One of my employees just decided to explain the XZ Utils backdoor to me while I repeatedly told him that I had read all about it at the time it was discovered. While we were having this ‘conversation’, this book was sitting in full view on my desk:
@katemorley I don't know why I am still astonished at things like this...umm....he's your employee and still thinks....yeah. So exhausting.
I was once mansplained my own talk at a big event, moments after stepping off the stage.
There were a couple other speakers, and he somehow didn't recognize me as the person giving my talk. Even though I was the only speaker who was a woman.
He kept repeating my own talk to me. Even though I was there in the room, let alone having just given the talk.

@katemorley At the time, it was the most bizarre of mansplaining I'd ever experienced. It still boggles my brain.

@katemorley I'm sorry to say I have a bad habit of explaining things that excite me to anyone who stays still long enough even if they know more about it than me. I might of been an excitable Labrador in a past life.

@katemorley Should have gently moved it as a hint.
@tripplehelix You're confident she didn't?

@katemorley You should have insisted on him explaining the book to you.
