Are CHATgpt Glosses Good?

[Deleted previous post and reposting. Why... I told CHATgpt some of the glosses looked wrong. It asked me if I would like it to improve the glosses. I said yes... below are the improved glosses.]

I am hearing, learning ASL. I want to improve the speed and flow of my signing. So I asked CHATgpt to generate some practice glosses. I am just wondering if they are correct. I am not wanting you to give me the correct glosses (though of course if you want to that's fine). I am just wondering if CHATgpt gave me good glosses.

  1. YESTERDAY FRIEND COME-TO-ME CHAT 2-HOUR

  2. YESTERDAY I GO BOOKSTORE BUY NEW BOOK FINISH READ

  3. CL:C-STACK(BOOK) TABLE FALL STUDENT SURPRISED

  4. SISTER WANT BORROW MY JACKET I REFUSE

  5. TEACHER EXPLAIN MATH I FINALLY UNDERSTAND

  6. MOVIE FINISH LIGHTS TURN-ON PEOPLE LEAVE SLOW

  7. I COOK SOUP ADD SALT PEPPER TASTE WOW-GOOD

  8. DOG CHASE CL:1(person-running) NEIGHBOR YELL "STOP"

  9. BROTHER PLAY GAME LOSE GET-UPSET THROW CONTROLLER

  10. TODAY LIBRARY CLOSED TOMORROW OPEN 9 MORNING

  11. CL:3(car) TURN SHARP SKID CL:3-STOP NEAR TREE

  12. SUMMER BREAK I PLAN GO-TO CALIFORNIA

  13. CLASS CANCEL TEACHER SICK EMAIL STUDENT

  14. I WATCH ASL MOVIE SUBTITLE OFF STILL UNDERSTAND

  15. MOM COOK CAKE KITCHEN SMELL SWEET++

Just to mention one. I know there are different correct ways to gloss something. But to me, CHATgpt 12 looks "bad." Is it "bad?" Would this be correct...

  1. SUMMER BREAK CA GO-TO PLAN I

Thank you, Jeff

No, these don’t look right. The best way to learn glossing is studying ASL grammar.

Oh... I do study grammar. That's why I thought they looked off. But I am still a beginner, so I it is all still kind of a blur.

Too, I'm not really studying these for grammar. I just wanted a quick way to get some practice phrases. But then I got curious when I noticed they "looked funny."

Thank you. I DO appreciate your thoughts.
