As German uses many long words, multiple spelling mistakes should be expected. However, in the “free writing” term final essays in the presenter’s German for beginner’s courses, learners often make one single mistake each (in various places) in words of varying length. This presentation considers seven spelling difficulty prediction features for Japanese, English, and German and analyzes the spelling mistakes in writing assignments of various lengths.
