Translating teacher language

I have a mini-panic attack whenever my professor stops and stares at my test for just a little too long cause in my mind he’s thinking “ooooh that’s veeeery wrong” 😭

[@doppelgaming2986]

my translation: ok buddy you are a Super dumkopf "dumkopf" means dummy or idiot

[@SammieLand]

​​@@wafflesthearttoad6916 im this way and thankfully, for me anyway, the teachers would let me know if i got something wrong. Not on tests, theyd usually just sit at their desks till everyone turns in their paper. The only time id seen them walking around is to make sure no one cheats. tbf id say i had rather good teachers (theyd take their time with me and were so nice) so i dont know if my experience helps at all for any lol

[@1c3e_130]

So teacher English is just normal English but on the verge of a mental breakdown. Got it.

Teacher language just seems like customer service language, even down to the frequency of emotional breakdowns.

[@tangledcharlotte]

Yeah, it's actually turning into that.

[@LavendersGreenify]

I was about to make a joke about students just being future customers, but I'm pretty sure that surpasses "dark humor" and goes straight into "badly written YA dystopia" territory. ... I've been working customer service too long.

[@06andym06]

@@LavendersGreenify I've worked at both Taco Bell and Starbucks. Taco Bell before and during the pandemic and Starbucks during and after the pandemic. You're completely correct. Sometimes customer service truly feels dystopian.

That second one is often less that, and more "I taught you that six times. I'mma gonna lose my mind you asking me again. And, since this is a test, I really can't help you."

[@antaresmaelstrom5365]

Or also often "I told you what to do. We went through each question when I gave you the assignment. I even asked whether there were questions and there were NONE. And now you tell me you don't know what to do. Tough luck."

[@colleyslimmaz4502]

Not lose my mind. I'm about to lose my shit because I went over that specific thing multiple times, but you continued to ignore and act an ass.

[@dragonblade2375]

The printer one has another translation "I...forgot to print it and realised it too late so you guys get to cheat online"

[@antaresmaelstrom5365]

Or even "I didn't have time (or the required mental fortitude) to make a test for you, but I found a similar one online so we're just gonna do that one."

the printer one is more like "your assigment is gonna be online today because the printer has no ink and we dont wanna fill it up because we dont care and we wanna save some money and the printer smells like fire idk why"💀

[@haleyt05]

This was great. You need to do one where it’s “teacher language” but the kids hear something completely different. Something to explain why they can eff up the simplest directions. Like teacher says “write your name at the top of the paper.” Kid hears “write your name anywhere that I won’t be able to see it.”

[@Wodorotlenekwapnia]

I understood the teacher language immediately.

[@thetruephantomking9823]

It is a lot like retail english

[@lillianbarclay9807]

"I dont know how it always keeps breaking" The kicking may be a problem too, because we all know it was not just you getting mad at the printer lol

[@cover_mystic545]

Printers are truly the most painful portion of workplace experiences

[@susanjeffay3851]

First the supervisor of the printer company comes out to assess the problem. He's wearing Khakis so he isn't going to get ink on his pants, then three days later the actual maintenance guy comes and he's in dirty Dickeys and gets into it. (I'm in the wrong profession!)

[@surlespasdondine]

@@holger_p Not twice the same, the first time they only skim.

[@holger_p]

@@surlespasdondine That's your claim. You changed from "often" to "they do". And me, with a legitimate question, is told "you are bad in reading". ..I just add another perspective.

[@redknight07_]

​@@holger_p thats only true with scientific experiments. We as humans tend to make a lot of mistakes, a reading error is a common mistake for students. Reading it again could come up with something you didnt see the first time

[@holger_p]

@@redknight07_ Yes, I'm aware of that. The point here is, you consider the other as so stupid, they don't get the idea to have read it 2-3 times themselves, before asking a question. In the age of 14, maybe you have heared this "read again" answer 1000 times, and you remember it, and do it ? For me, this answer is actually equivalent to "shut up" or "Don't annoy me". The teacher is not thinking a millisecond about anything.
