Stress-test the German script
Check compounds, numbers, and borrowed terms
Use the most demanding lines from the project as your preview. Long compounds and compact notation reveal more than a generic sample sentence.
Long compound nouns
Preview technical terms and long compounds in a complete sentence. Add a pronunciation replacement if the word is divided or stressed poorly.
Dates, decimals, and amounts
Listen to dates, prices, percentages, measurements, and version numbers. Spell out any notation that produces an unintended reading.
Initials and English terms
Test abbreviations, product names, and borrowed English words inside German syntax instead of previewing each item alone.
Keep the form of address consistent
Proof-listen the full script for accidental switches between formal Sie and informal du before publishing customer-facing audio.
