I chose this audio sample as the better of the two because I feel that it is the more legitimate of the two. My second sample contained a lot of English and this one was completely German. Honestly, I'm very proud of this audio sample. I had to listen to the man's voice many times and was able to write down what he was saying accurately (with the exception of L.L. Bean/Bohne, which was slightly confusing). Afterward, I recorded myself countless times. I worked diligently to perfect my imitation of the native speaker. I truly feel that because I had to listen so closely to the man, I picked up on the little things of a German accent that I otherwise would not have noticed. Therefore, I think that this audio demonstrates my ability to listen to and speak German. I enjoyed making this audio sample.
