✕Common Mistakes
Die Remote‑Sitzung ist getrennt.
‘ist getrennt’ describes a completed state (the session is already disconnected), while ‘wird getrennt’ indicates the action is happening now.
Der Remote‑Sitzung wird getrennt.
‘Sitzung’ is feminine, so the correct article is ‘die’, not ‘der’.
Die Remote‑Sitzung wird trennen.
Using the infinitive ‘trennen’ breaks the passive structure; you need the past participle ‘getrennt’.

Cultural Tip
German technical language frequently adopts English loanwords like ‘Remote’ and often hyphenates them for clarity. The passive construction sounds more formal and objective, which is typical for system messages and IT support communication. Avoid overly casual phrasing in professional settings.
