  • Statistical jargon for checking model error patterns.
  • Essential for academic writing and data science reports.
  • Uses the passive voice to sound objective and professional.

This phrase is used in statistics and data science. It means you checked if the 'errors' or 'leftovers' in your data model follow a standard bell curve shape.

문화적 배경

The normal distribution is deeply tied to German history through Carl Friedrich Gauss. His face was even on the 10-Deutsche-Mark bill alongside a bell curve. In German culture, 'Gründlichkeit' (thoroughness) is a virtue, and checking your residuals is the ultimate sign of a thorough researcher.

💡

The 'Auf' Rule

Always remember the preposition 'auf'. It's a common mistake to use 'für' (for), but in German statistics, you always check 'auf' a distribution.

⚠️

Don't over-pluralize

The singular is 'das Residuum', but you almost always use the plural 'die Residuen' because models have many data points.

What It Means

Imagine you are trying to predict house prices. Your model isn't perfect. The difference between the real price and your predicted price is the Residuum (residual). To trust your model, you need these errors to be random. In the world of math, 'random' often looks like a bell curve. This phrase says you did the work. You checked those leftovers. You made sure they behave like a proper Normalverteilung. It is the mark of a careful scientist.

How To Use It

You will mostly use the passive voice here. Die Residuen wurden... überprüft. It sounds professional and objective. You can swap überprüft for getestet if you want. The key is the preposition auf. In German, you check something *on* a quality. You are checking the residuals *on* their normal distribution. It sounds a bit like you are putting them on a scale to see if they fit.

When To Use It

Use this in your Master's thesis. Use it during a presentation at a tech company. If you are a data scientist, this is your bread and butter. It shows you know your stuff. It belongs in the 'Methodology' section of a paper. You might also say it to a study partner. It’s a way to prove you didn't skip the boring parts of the analysis. It is pure academic gold.

When NOT To Use It

Do not use this at a first date. Unless you are both statisticians, it is a mood killer. Don't use it at the supermarket. 'The weight of these apples was tested for normal distribution' will get you weird looks. It is too heavy for casual small talk. Avoid it in creative writing or poetry. It is cold, hard logic. It has no place in a heart-to-heart conversation.

Cultural Background

Germans love precision. This phrase is the peak of linguistic and scientific precision. Remember Carl Friedrich Gauss? He was a German mathematician. He basically 'invented' the normal distribution. In Germany, it is often called the Gauß-Verteilung. There is a sense of national pride in this math. Using this phrase correctly shows you respect the rigors of German academia. It’s about being gründlich (thorough).

Common Variations

You might hear Die Residuen sind normalverteilt. This means the check is done and they *are* normally distributed. Another one is Die Prüfung der Residuen auf Normalverteilung. This is the noun version. You might see it as a heading in a report. Sometimes people just say Residuenanalyse. It covers the same ground but is less specific about the bell curve.

사용 참고사항

This is a high-level academic expression (C1/C2). It requires the passive voice construction 'wurden ... überprüft' and the specific preposition 'auf'. Use it only in professional or educational settings.

💡

The 'Auf' Rule

Always remember the preposition 'auf'. It's a common mistake to use 'für' (for), but in German statistics, you always check 'auf' a distribution.

⚠️

Don't over-pluralize

The singular is 'das Residuum', but you almost always use the plural 'die Residuen' because models have many data points.

💬

The Gauss Factor

If you want to sound even more 'German' in your math, call it the 'Gauß-Verteilung'. It shows you know the local history of the bell curve!

This is the classic academic use case.

A common 'nerdy' interaction between students.

#4 A humorous comment among colleagues

Mein Kaffeekonsum ist so hoch, selbst meine Residuen wurden auf Normalverteilung überprüft!

My coffee consumption is so high, even my residuals were tested for normal distribution!

A joke about being overly analytical or stressed.

#5 Writing a formal lab report
👔

Wie in Abbildung 3 ersichtlich, wurden die Residuen auf Normalverteilung überprüft.

As seen in Figure 3, the residuals were tested for normal distribution.

Standard phrasing for written reports.

Ich verstehe das nicht! Die Residuen wurden auf Normalverteilung überprüft, aber der p-Wert ist trotzdem schlecht.

I don't get it! The residuals were checked for normal distribution, but the p-value is still bad.

Expressing frustration with statistical results.

셀프 테스트

Fill in the correct preposition used with 'überprüft' in this context.

Die Residuen wurden ___ Normalverteilung überprüft.

✓ 정답! ✗ 아쉬워요. 정답: auf

In German, you check 'auf' a specific quality or condition (auf etwas überprüfen).

Complete the sentence with the correct noun for 'residuals'.

Die ___ müssen auf Normalverteilung überprüft werden.

✓ 정답! ✗ 아쉬워요. 정답: Residuen

'Residuen' is the specific statistical term for residuals; 'Reste' is too general (leftovers).

They are the differences between observed values and the values predicted by a model. In simple terms, they are the 'errors' of your prediction.

Many statistical tests assume that errors are normally distributed (bell-shaped). If they aren't, your results might be unreliable.

Yes, Die Residuen wurden auf Normalverteilung getestet is perfectly fine and very common in scientific contexts.

Almost never. It is strictly limited to academic, scientific, or professional data-related environments.

The singular is das Residuum. However, you will rarely hear it because a check usually involves a whole set of data points.

You say Die Residuen sind normalverteilt. This is the statement of the result, rather than the action of checking.

Not if you are discussing work. In a professional setting, überprüft is the standard, appropriate term.

Using the wrong preposition, like überprüft für. Always stick with auf.

Only as a joke. For example, 'I checked my fridge for leftovers' would be Ich habe meinen Kühlschrank auf Reste überprüft, not Residuen.

Carl Friedrich Gauss, the German 'Prince of Mathematicians', who popularized the normal distribution curve.
