Contexte culturel
Red ink is the traditional color for corrections in schools, which can feel quite harsh to students from other cultures. Swiss German speakers often use 'verbessern' more frequently than 'korrigieren' in casual speech. Austrian German is very similar to standard German regarding this phrase; it is used in all formal contexts. In universities, 'korrigieren' is the standard term for a professor grading an exam.
