>> It would be disastrous in a foreign language class if you were told the word for "mother" was "banana". How so? 20 min with a bilingual dictionary(which is more than likely in the back of the textbook) would be enough to verify definitions. Though I don't think it would have the desired effect since it doesn't really promote learning just rote fact checking. |

Learning a foreign language is all about internalization. It takes time and is hard to correct. The last thing you want is to inadvertently internalize the wrong thing. Root vocabulary would be relatively easy to fix, but pronunciation and grammar would be very hard.
