  1. Bonjour,

    il y a 45 minutes, Ranio a dit :

    Bonjour, 

    Merci pour votre réponse, est-ce que les dialogues représentent bien les situations où on utilise le mot ? 

    Oui et je dirais même que " tu as envoyé le bouchon assez loin ". ?

    Pour good riddance =bon débarras c'est un peu traduction mot par mot non ?  En quoi est-ce gênant ? En français, tu peux dire aussi "bon vent" dans l'exact même sens.

    Melted into thin air, on peut dire aussi  Vanish into thin air ? Tout à fait

     

    Merci My pleasure! :)

     

     

  2. Bonjour,

    Il y a 13 heures, Ranio a dit :

    Bonjour à  tous !

    Alors voilà j'ai un travail à faire sur les expressions de Shakespeare, voici ce que j'ai fait, si vous pouviez me corriger merci beaucoup !

    Questions:

    1. Which Shakespearean plays do these expressions come from?

     

    The be all and end all - This expression appeared in the English playwright William Shakespeare’s play Macbeth, in the year 1605.

    Good riddance -This phrase originated in Shakespeare's 1609 play "Troilus and Cressida."

     

    Heart of gold -The use of the term ‘ heart of gold ’ is in common usage today, having been first used in Shakespeare’s play, Henry V. 

     

    Melted into thin air -The phrase comes from Prospero's famous speech in The Tempest(1610-1611)

     

     

    2. Translate the expressions into French.( You can’t translate word for word, You have to find the ‘sense’ of the Shakespearean expression and give a French equivalent)

    The be all and end all - Le but ultime (je ne suis pas sûre) ou bien "le but suprême"

     

    Good riddance - Bon débarras

     

    Heart of gold -une personne de nature pure et aimante.( un coeur en or  je ne sais pas si je peux le mettre )

    Melted into thin air -Disparaître sans laisser de traces.

    3.For each of the 4 expressions imagine a situation where you would say them , Describe each situation (ici si on choisit des dialogues ça marche ?)

    Première expression : The be all and end all :  

    James: So Sophie, what did you want to tell me?

    Sophie: I have a list of 100 reasons why I should be allowed to get another dog.

    James : Let me save you some time. You did a good job training your last dog, which is great! However, your school grades have not been great this year.

    Sophie: So? Grades aren’t that important? It’s more important to be a good person.

    James: That may be true. However, The be all and end all in regards to you getting a new pet is your report card. If you get all As in your classes this semester, I will let you get another pet.

    Sophie: Okay. It’s a deal!

    Deuxième expression : Good riddance :

    Sophie: Have you seen my sweater?
    Amelia: Which one?
    Sophie : Don't play innocent, if you're the one who took it from me, give it back to me now !
    Amelia: Stop accusing me without proof, I've got more sweaters than you anyway, so I don't care about your sweater, go attack someone else!
    Sophie : You've always envied me anyway, so it wouldn't be surprising if you threw it away or even hid it!
    Amelia: I don't have that much to do, so look elsewhere!
    Sophie : I'll accuse you until I find it, come on Manon, I understand your little game! You're jealous of me, aren't you?!
    Amelia: I have absolutely nothing to envy you, and even less your nastiness!
    Amelia: If you find him it I'll be waiting for your apology, otherwise you're leaving the studio!
    Sophie : Allright, good riddance!

    Troisième expression : Heart of gold :

    Sophie: This email tells us that we have to attend a meeting, but it doesn’t tell us when or where this meeting is.

    Amelia: I guess you should just email the boss’s secretary to find out the details.

    Sophie: I would, but she scares me a little. She seems really grumpy all the time.

    Amelia: She comes across as being cold, but when you get to know her a little better, you find that she has a heart of gold. She’s actually very kind and helpful.

    Quatrième expression : Melted into thin air :

    James: May, hurry up! We're gonna be late!
    Maddie: It's okay. It's polite to be a little late to the holidays.
    James: Well, where I come from, it's polite to be on time. What's taking you so long? 
    Maddie: I'm just making some last-minute adjustments to my outfit.
    James: It's not as important as being on time!
    Maddie: Are you kidding me? It's much more important.
    James: It's not important at all! We're gonna have fun, no matter what you're wearing. 
    Maddie: Fun for me, yes, but fun for you? You're kidding me. I hope so. Last time we were here, you melted in the air. I was worried.
    James: I had an unscheduled appointment.
    Maddie: Well, I thought you were kidnapped. You seem to be taking this lightly.
    James: I wasn't gone long.
    Maddie: Not too long, long enough to go to the police about your disappearance.
    James: You've done too much but you're right I'll be careful next time; let's not waste time.

     

    Merci encore

     

     

  3. Bonjour Maël,

    Impossible pour moi de me mettre dans les baskets de ta professeur...

    Quant aux enfants qui sont des rebelles... ben comment te dire... ça sent le cliché, j'ai failli écrire "pue"...

    J'ai peine à croire que tu aies pu faire partie des jeunes à qui leurs parents disaient "Tais-toi et mange, c'est bon pour toi" et qui répondaient aussi sec "Na" ! ?

  4. To conclude, if Jamie Oliver wants  (*) to be successful, he will need some help, he will be patient and he won't lose heart.

    (*) N'oublie jamais le -s final au présent simple d'un verbe dont le sujet est au singulier.

    La seule et unique exception à cette règle, c'est les auxiliaires modaux.

  5. Bonjour,

    As far as I'm concerned,Jamie Oliver won't be successful.

     

    ·       Americans won't want to eat home-cooked meals because they love junk food and fast food is simple.

    ·       To me, it will be more easy easier for parents to change their habits than (for) children because they know it's good for their health. <easy (2 syllabes en -y) est un adjectif court dont le comparatif de supériorité se fait en -ier.

    ·       It will hard for him to persuade schools to change meals at the canteen because it will be too expensive.

    ·       I don't think that he's going to be successful because everybody doesn't want to change their habits.

    ·       If you want to change your unhealthy eating habits you will have an iron will. <Même si ton exercice porte sur l'expression du futur, ce que j'ignore, la logique de la proposition principale voudrait qu'on emploie plutôt le modal must à la place de will  >> you must have an iron will => il vous faudra une volonté de fer.

  6. Bonjour Youri,

    il y a 25 minutes, Yourialexeievitchgagarine a dit :

    Je n'ai pas un bon niveau d'anglais malheureusement... Je dois souvent adapter ce que je veux dire pour que cela soit plus facile à formuler et je dois aussi chercher sur internet pour la grammaire par exemple. J'espère que cela m'aidera à m'améliorer.

    Je pense que tu te sous-estimes car je vois souvent des écrits qui n'ont qu'une vague ressemblance avec l'anglais, hélas. ☹️ Ton texte est loin d'entrer dans cette catégorie-là.

    Comme je suis souvent amené  à le rappeler, il faut oublier sa langue maternelle quand on écrit en anglais.

  7. Bonsoir,

    Le 18/04/2020 à 16:46, Yourialexeievitchgagarine a dit :

    Bonjour !

    Je dois préparer un texte en anglais  pour me présenter avec plusieurs critères (en gras dans le texte: différents temps, des comparatifs et superlatifs, une date et heure, adverbes de fréquence ...). Je dois aussi commencer mon texte par un objet que je dois apporter.

    Auriez-vous le temps et la gentillesse de me corriger mon texte ? Je vous remercie beaucoup pour votre aide !

    The object that I brought with me is a judo medal. I won it last year. I began judo when I was 4 years old. I have now the blue belt but I have to pass the exam for the brown belt soon.

    
    I practise judo in a club twice a week. I think judo is one of the most complete sports that exist and I love this sport for his (1)  its strong moral code that includes respect, self-control, 
    courage and honor. (1) Souviens-toi qu'il y a 3 genres en anglais : masculin/féminin/neutre

    There are sometimes tournaments that usually take place on weekends. It is over there I won this medal. The next tournament will take place <(2)> happen/occur on Sunday 20 th September at 10 a.m. (2) Dictionnaire bilingue gratuit en ligne : https://www.wordreference.com/

    I have other hobbies than judo for example : playing tennis, going to the cinema, reading, watching films on TV, surfing the net, listening to music and going to the swimming pool in summer.

    With my Being 14 years old, (3) I'm the youngest  one of in my family. I have got one sister who is 22 (years old) and one brother who is 20 (years old). They are very kind and I get on well with them. We have the same character: the three of us are reflective, conciliatory and very calm. It is/That is the reason/ why we spend a lot of time together. (3)  "years old" n'est pas indispensable pour exprimer l'âge, le chiffre suffit après le verbe be.

    I also have pets at home. I have fishes and four degus.(*) Degus are rodents from the same family as chinchillas and guinea pigs but they are smaller than both the latter. (4) I love those animals because they are very sociable and the most curious animals that I have never (5) seen. I would also like to have a cat or a dog but my father doesn't agree with this. (4) the latter = ces deux derniers (5) quand jamais a un sens positif  comme ici, il se rend par ever // never est de sens négatif = ne...jamais

    (*) Je connais le nom octodon mais j'ignorais le nom degu. Merci de m'avoir donné l'occasion de l'apprendre.

    At school, I'm in the class 11VSB4. My favourite topic is mathematics. I really find it funnier and more interesting than all the other topics. After this year, I will go to the Gymnasium.

    When I was younger I wanted to be a veterinary surgeon/vet. Now I have changed my mind because I realized that I am too sensitive for this job. I don’t know yet what I am going to do but I want to do a job in touch with mathematics or physics. = les sciences physiques

    Thank you !!!!! You're welcome ?

    Connaissant ta classe à présent, je suis épaté par ta maîtrise de l'anglais, bravo. ?

    Bonne continuation.

    Petit clin d'oeil ci-dessous ?

  9. Bonjour,

    1) The document presented is a caricature entitled "Lance Armstrong" drawn by Steve Sack, an American designer. In addition, this cartoon was published in 2012. This document shows us behind the scenes the backstage area <les coulisses with some athletes during cycling competitions because they use doping as a method to win all the races in which they participate take part in their field.
    Why do many athletes use this method?
    What is the impact of doping in the world of sport?

    2) We can see a man on a bicycle. This man is dressed  in/is wearing sportswear from head top to toe bottom: a helmet, gloves, tights/shorts and a jersey. With Judging from his outfit, we can then assure/confirm/affirm that this gentleman is a cyclist and not the least one because by looking at the name inscribed on his jersey, we conclude that this man is Lance Armstrong, an American cyclist very well known throughout the world. This caricature represents him, certainly doing a race. In addition, by analyzing the expression on his face, we can see that he looks happy, joyful. Finally, if we focus on the bike, we can observe that it is an almost normal bike but a part has been changed, its composition does not seem usual. We can thus discern notice that what partially composes the wheels spokes (*) have been replaced by several syringes. (*) les rayons

    3) The cartoonist's intentions are quite clear. Through this caricature, the author wants to warn/alert the world of sport as well as all those who do not know the dark side of sporting events and what athletes do to achieve their ends, win all possible competitions. He then denounces one of them, the famous sportsman: Lance Armstrong. Steve Sack has therefore revealed this part which everyone doubted suspected. Athletes of all kinds, in all areas that may exist, use the doping method. This method involves absorbing chemicals or using medical procedures to increase the physical and mental performance of an athlete. This approach makes it possible to increase its one's strong points and therefore to have sufficient capacity to win all the competitions and all the contests in each every sports field. However, we know that this is completely prohibited and that it is an act that can have very serious consequences. The author therefore wanted to denounce the negative aspects of the competitions and the disgusting manner which allows certain athletes to win them just like Lance Armstrong did. The author uses satire in his caricature in order to criticize and denounce this type of practice.

    4) In my opinion, this cartoon denounces, as the author tries to convey to the general public, that everyone had doubts without saying it. He finally opens his eyes to the public people's eyes and exposes all the athletes who illegally use doping as a method to surpass themselves and overtake all their competitors. I find think that this image is a good way to unmask the forbidden secrets of some people and make them understand that it is a sanctioned practice that can cause grave dangers and even prison terms to all those who use it. For To me/To my mind, doping is far too easy a method to win competitions, that it is absolutely not fair play towards these adversaries and that it is above all something that can endanger the health of all resulting in in some cases in the death of the individual. This cartoon is a good way to make it clear that many athletes like Lance Armstrong use doping and that it must be stopped before it is too late. For To me, this satire is a intermediary means to reveal the truth at best and therefore makes it possible to raise public awareness of this practice.

  10. Bonjour,

    Voici ton texte corrigé. Mets-toi vite au travail et oublie le français !

    I would love to try its these activities in New Zealand, each one of its own kind in turn <<<chacune à tour de rôle

    But a bungee jump that looks like/must be a pretty unique experience because it means we have to throw ourselves leap into the void.

    In the void attach this Being tied up to the bungee cord can be scary, the so that hesitation before jumping into the void is quite understandable.

    But the sensation when feeling we must experience at the time of the jump, the rush of adrenaline must be so intense to the point of  wake up the dead throughout the activity that we no longer think.

    At the end of the such an activity we must probably be a little shaken (*)  but will that would be an unimaginable experience.

    (*) Il faut connaître parfaitement tous les verbes irréguliers de façon réflexe, c'est indispensable.

    Then the activity of the I would also like to play a Ki-o-Rah ball game which is not not an activity has sensation but it’s a ball game made up of two teams that mix rhythm in a feminine team of seven. It seems speed to be a quick and a fairly fun activity to do with friends or compete.

    Other activities also look good but it’s  these two activities have look particularly look awesome!

     

  11. Bon, sans vouloir te vexer, tu as écrit ça en le "traduisant" du français et bien mal qui plus est.

    Quand tu auras le temps, je t'invite à parcourir quelques unes de mes recommandations à ce sujet.

    Pour faire court, écrire en anglais ne consiste surtout pas à "traduire" du français, c'est carrément contre-productif puisque les deux langues n'obéissent pas aux mêmes règles.

    >> Sujet + verbe + COD + un éventuel COI et basta ! Quand tu maîtriseras ce B.A.-BA, alors tu pourras passer à l'écriture de phrases complexes.

    Mais pour l'amour du ciel, OUBLIE le français quand tu dois écrire de l'anglais.

    Reprends ton texte, et remanie-le complètement en appliquant la "recette" ci-dessus puis poste-le à la suite.

    Ce soir ou plutôt demain dans la matinée, je reviendrai te donner ta version éventuellement arrangée et corrigée.

    Au plaisir de te relire. ?

  12. Bonjour Lina, bienvenue sur e-bahut. :)

    Au risque de te décevoir, aider quelqu'un ici ne consiste pas à faire tout le travail à sa place.

    Personnellement je suis tout à fait disposé à t'aider si tu commences par soumettre ton travail personnel.

    Dans l'expression écrite que tu dois rendre, il n'y a rien que tu ne puisses ni saches faire.

    >> Aimerais-tu essayer ces activités en Nouvelle Zélande ? Oui/non, pour quelles raisons ?

    Tu n'es pas obligée de les traiter toutes ; 2 ou 3 devraient suffire à atteindre et dépasser les 150 mots.

    Ci-dessous, tu trouveras des liens pour t'aider.

    Bon travail et au plaisir de te lire.

    Je m'entraîne beaucoup pour l'anglais, un de mes points faibles à l'écrit comme à l'oral!

     

    Je te rassure, ton niveau est très éloigné de faible. :)

    Depuis que je sévis sur le forum, par contre j'ai lu et continue de lire bien pire. ☹️

  14. "Faute avouée est à demi pardonnée", selon le dicton.  ?

    Je sais trop bien que penser en anglais est difficile puisque nous sommes francophones mais il faut absolument que tu fasses l'effort d'en être consciente toutes les fois que tu dois écrire en anglais.

    Au moins dans un premier temps, compose des phrases simples : sujet + verbe + compléments.

    Les complications/complexifications viendront plus tard, en temps et en heure.

    Comme pour le sport, c'est en s'entraînant régulièrement qu'on progresse.

  15. Bonjour et bienvenue sur le forum anglais. :)

    Sans aucune précision sur ta classe ni ton niveau actuels, <=(j'ignore quel est l'équivalent français de Quatrième en Suisse) je mets ci-dessous plusieurs liens vers des exercices susceptibles de répondre à ta demande.
    Au plaisir de te lire.
