Subject: OT: help from native speakers
Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2018 18:05:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D601CA36-9D41-4347-9E51-C0E031AB946F@fiee.net> (raw)
Hi there,
I’m writing (and later typesetting, of course) a book for young people (in German) that contains a short scene in English.
My young protagonists meet an American couple in Lübeck, and I’d like them to speak natural and not think like me.
Are you a native speaker and would you like to create that scene with me? (No special requirements, just be yourself.)
I’ve got a concept that you could comment/correct, or we can do this like a roleplay (I’ll tell you what you see and hear, you tell me how you’d react).
I’d also enjoy hearing about typical (or just funny) mistakes of young Germans trying to talk in English.
Otherwise have a nice summer!
Greetlings, Hraban
