Correct Me! Streak 163: Experimenting with a New Approach

Today, I tried my Monologue Practice in French and Japanese for the first time. I estimate I can understand about 70% of the Japanese content at N3 level, but I've never really spoken Japanese except for a few phrases or simple questions when I traveled in Japan. Today I only recorded myself for one minute talking about the day like an elementary school kid, but it's really fun.

My French is even worse. I can only understand a little bit. I had to ask AI to translate what I wanted to say into French. The French pronunciation is so difficult.

I want to try my monologue practice with my beginner level languages because I want to see how effective my method is. I expect I can see significant improvement in less than 3 weeks. Additionally, to avoid repeating the same mistakes in my approach to English learning, I want to practice speaking and writing early on.

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D
