I am a 55 year old Englishman and will be living in Paris from March 28 until April 9 whilst I attend a French language school. I am seeking French conversation in the evening after school. I will buy dinner if you can help me with my homework. I am equally happy to help improve your English.
Bill

Re: Paris : French girl looking for english/french conversat

I was bored, so I thought I'd correct your French

> J'aime le music et alle sortir dans le weekend.
J'aime la musique et sortir le weekend. (you'd also say "sortir le soir" as opposed to "sortir dans le soir" ).

> Aussi j'adore a voyager.
J'adore aussi voyager.

>Dans le mars ou avril je vais alle a Paris et strasbourg
En mars ou en avril, j'irai a Paris et a Strasbourg.

> avec mes copaines pour une semaine.
pour une semaine avec mes copines. (the order somehow matters here)

> Est-ce que vous etes deja alle en Irlande?
This one's perfect. Just lacks a couple of accents (you can do them by pressing the "Alt Gr" key and the "e" key at the same time).

> (If you find i'm making any mistakes let me know. I know alot
> of french but i can find it difficult to put sentences together
> as sometimes ot doesn't follow the same pattern as in

C'est la vie, comme disent les francais...

cheers

Re: Paris : French girl looking for english/french conversat

Cheers for that,

Your english is better than my french. Come to think of it, your english is better than my english.

altgr+e= é. Ive been looking for that for ages. I now have the power ééééééééééé

As we say in Ireland

Cheers

To do the other accents, it's a bit trickier, but roughly, you need to install the american keyboard driver for windows. and you can then use some magic combos, as in Street Fighter 2.
[Ctrl] + [,] and then [c] will do the c cedille.
[Ctrl] + [`] and then [a] will do the a with a grave accent.
And the same with ['] and [^] to do the 2 other accents.

The end-level boss it quite tricky though.

 

Re: Paris : French girl looking for english/french conversat

thats cool,

I'll install that if i can tonight.

Je vous remercie de votre aide

Hi I am from America. And I want to learn French. I can suggest you few tips, if you want to learn English. According to me, before starting any language you should go with the fundamentals. Start with the small words like English names and places names and then go for the small sentences. For an English name you can check it here http://www.babynology.com/english_babynames.html.
