AI 도우미와 번역

Small tools that makes living a bit easier: I didn’t know what word faff ^[1] means, I can’t recall I would ever even heard it. But thanks for AI helper I got translation right away without need to jump to a browser and bother Google.

I really like that option.

Faff, I like that word.

1. Faff is a rather informal British slang term that refers to wasting time or procrastinating, often in a leisurely or indulgent manner. In other words, to faff around means to spend time doing nothing in particular, or doing something unproductive, often in a relaxed or lazy way. However, in the context of the conversation, it seems the student has taken a liking to the word, possibly because it’s a fun and quirky term, and is using it in a more positive sense to express enthusiasm.

I also just used the “add footnote” feature to add an explanation to your post

Fascinating that the footnote is longer than what is shown in your screenshot.

I think I like the explain feature even more than the translate feature. Instead of providing a German word, it explains the meaning in the context of the post, which is often more helpful for me. (It also explains jokes, plays on words, and sayings)

@Moin

explain feature even more than the translate feature

I’m using explanation same way than Kris demonstrated — to explain terms to my audience if/when there is a risk that it is too difficult or strange.

But translation is purely for my benefit.
