During a 10-minute 180 wpm drill on Case CATalyst, my students lost it when the feed rendered “public defender” as “puppy defender,” so we turned the laugh into a mini-lesson on conflict resolution, real-time priorities, and a quick three-pass readback. What family-friendly mistranslates have you used to boost engagement, and how did you teach the fix — dictionary edit, brief tweak, or targeted finger drill?
At 180 wpm, ‘statute’ became ‘statue’; fixed via dictionary edit + backup brief, but I also teach conflict pairs…
Had ‘closing argument’ turn into ‘clothing argument,’ so we made a phrase brief for the real thing and pushed the homophone down in Case CATalyst. I run a 60-second ‘spot the puppy’ pass where they flag implausible nouns, read back, and submit one conflict pair they fixed, @v_davis34. Briefs are great, but if you’re swapping machines or macros, a simple dictionary priority edit travels better.
