Mostly True Memoirs
WHAT DO YOU SAY WHEN YOU AGREE?
The interpreters in my ESL classes are often useless.
Sometimes they are downright awful.
Today’s lesson was about expressions indicating agreement.
Of course, absolutely, that’s right, no kidding, certainly.
“What do you say when you agree?” is what I asked.
“What do you say when you are gay?” is what
the interpreter wrote in the chat box.
Oh.
Goodness.
That is not what I said.
That is not the correct interpretation.
That is certainly not the topic of the day.
Proofread before you post, interpreters.
Please proofread.
