Message de here4u posté le 08-01-2023 à 23:36:58 (S | E | F)
Hello, dear workers!

Here is the new topic for you to write about... I hope many will participate enthusiastically... This topic is a little more difficult than the preceding ones...

You mustn't be afraid of making mistakes... We LOVE mistakes, because they give us an opportunity to explain and correct!

Here is today's topic, seen in the press while I was reading...

"Who are you? Describe yourselves, either physically, or telling us about your qualities and flaws." (150 to 170 words) (No confession is required... You may invent any characteristic or trait. You may also choose humour, irony, caricature, parody, etc.) You have FREEDOM...


Voici le rappel des modalités de la première partie de l'exercice :
1. Je vous demande une EXPRESSION sur le sujet proposé à m’envoyer en mp dès que possible
2. Le plus tôt possible, cette première expression sera publiée sur le Forum, et CHACUN sera libre de « corriger » UNE FOIS ( en collant le texte et indiquant les erreurs EN BLEU, et en soulignant ce qui vous semble maladroit et que vous voudriez changer, sans donner la « correction » (forme correcte), à ce moment là, comme il se doit.) Si un autre membre a déjà indiqué des erreurs en bleu, VOUS DEVEZ repartir de cette correction et la confirmer ou la corriger ... Un seul devoir à la fois sera publié pour corriger … Vous pourrez ensuite donner vos suggestions de correction (en vert!)

IMPORTANT! Pour me faciliter le transfert de vos travaux sur le site, pourriez vous m'indiquer par un "(" la correction qui s'impose à vous, s'il vous plaît ?
ie. (I'm repeating for years... ou (was not only to want something,... Pourquoi ? Simplement parce que le site ne "garde" pas les indications de couleurs ou de soulignement etc. dès que l'on copie ... Donc, je prends vos travaux, je les corrige avec les codes "bleu" ou "souligné" ou "vert", mais au moment où je vous poste la correction, je perds tout mon travail ... et dois tout refaire mot à mot avec deux fenêtres ou même deux écrans pour un travail fastidieux de copie point par point ... Merci de votre aide !

Les modalités complètes sont accessibles sur le lien suivant :
Lien internet


( Je vous les rappellerai au fur et à mesure de la progression du travail )
Cet exercice sera ... ce que vous en ferez : ou ou Do your best, I trust You!
Correction en ligne le mardi 24 janvier 2023.
J'attends vos envois en mp et publierai le premier dès que possible.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU and with US!

Hello dears!

Here is EXPRESSION N°1! That was quick, wasn't it? Please indicate possible mistakes in blue, and underline what you think is clumsy...

I was born in April several decades ago, and though I'm not very interested in astronomy, I must admit that I have a real Aries personality: willing, enterprising, bold and sporty.
You will tell me:" Good things! "Sure, but these qualities can easily turn into flaws. The volunteer becomes stubborn quickly, and the go-getter often lacks of discernment.
How many times have I regretted not weighing the pros and the cons before embarking on an adventure?
I am also very direct, and I can't hide very long when someone or something doesn't please me. Being frank is a good thing, but lacking of diplomacy can play tricks or make others feel bad.
My friends will say that I am faithful in love as in friendship, I am generous and I have a good heart. Yet, I look askance at those who step on my toes!
I hope, if we meet, you won't run away because of my temper. 158 words

for your help!

Hello dears,

More work for you...

EXPRESSION N°2: Please help us... Indicate possible mistakes and underline what may look clumsy.

As Alphonse Karr wrote: every man has three characters: that which he exhibits, that which he has, and that which he thinks he has.
My being a very tall middle-aged man is undeniable.
Yet, you might be surprised to learn that I have always been very reserved and shy. I'm also very calm, quiet and wise. You would never see me try something dangerous or risky: extreme sports are definitely not for me! I admit I'm a stay-at-home person who prefers routine to ever-changing situations. Unfortunately, a leopard can't change its spots, can it?

Another aspect of my personality is that I don't like wasting (food, clothes, etc.). I re-use as much as possible; throwing things away to make room breaks my heart especially for objects that remind me of my childhood. I must say I'm a little nostalgic, dreamy and... romantic!
Finally, I'm extremely faithful in every area of my life, more than you would ever imagine..168 Words

Thanks for your help...

Hello dears!


Here is EXPRESSION N°3: Please, help us correct the mistakes... (indicating them in blue and underlining what is clumsy.)

When my friends tell about me, they tell I’m a good people of course, well-bread and enough polite ….
I like fun, music, dancing and eat junk food with my friends. I go running with my dog in the morning and in the evening. I live near to a little wood and we like it. I am tired and out of breathing before him, and we finish the promenades in walking… and after, we play together with sticks and little branchs which I’m throwing.
I have my dog for 5 years and we love ourselves. He has a great part in my life. I have adopted him when I seen him in a refuge. He is not very beautiful, is a bastard, but I love him really. It is very impossible I live without him. I’ll never let him. 146

A noter que l'utilisation de he/him (au lieu de it) pour ce chien tant aimé par son maître est justifié

(0) to say sth / to tell sb sth
(1) en l'absence d'info, on ne peut préciser si c'est man ou woman
(2) 2 possibilités : rather/quite + adjectif ou alors : adjectif + enough
(3) c'est l'action de manger => Verbe en ING
(4) next to ou bien near sans to
(5) j'ai supposé que we était mis pour l'auteur + son chien ... (sinon, il aurait fallu préciser)
(6) plusieurs possibilités: Then / Afterwards/ After that. Mais after doit être suivi de qqch
(7) Le présent progressif impliquerait que l'auteur est en train de faire l'action. Alors qu'il s'agit d'une généralité, d'une habitude
(8) I've got a dog. Mais si on précise que la possession actuelle date depuis un certain temps, il faut le present perfect
(9) we love ourselves serait de l'amour de soi-même et non de l'amour réciproque
(10) ici, le present perfect aurait pu convenir si la phrase s'était arrêtée à :
I have adopted him. (je l'ai adopté) qui est le bilan de l'action.
Mais comme on situe précisément l'action dans le passé, le prétérit s'impose.
(11) bastard est une insulte vulgaire
(12) plusieurs possibilités : I really love him ; I love him, really I do!
(13) là encore, plusieurs possibilités : I can't/couldn't (possibly) live without him
It is absolutely impossible that I live without him (very ne convient pas. quite serait mieux)
It is impossible for me to live without him
(14) Je ne le quitterai pas => I'll never leave him
Je ne le laisserai pas tomber => I'll never let him down

My suggestions :
- un volontaire : a head-strong person
- un fonceur : a go-getter
- «A lack of money»(lack : nom) BUT «to lack money» (verbe).
«a lack of discernment»??? lack of judgement/ insight/ vision/ common sense/
- look askance; to be suspicious of/ be wary of/ distrust sth/ don’t trust sth/ to frown on stg/.
- tread on my toes/ trample on sb/ walk all over sb/

EXPRESSION 3: suggestions N°2:

When my friends (talk about me, they (say (0) I’m a good (person (1) of course, (well brought up and (rather (2) polite ….Bien.
I like fun, music, dancing and (eating(3) junk food with my friends. I go running with my dog in the (morning and in the (evening. I live (near (4)a little wood and we (5) like it. I am tired and out of (breath before (he is,(Bien amélioré, mais on peut encore mieux faire sans trahir l’auteur …) and we (generally end up walking…B (Then (6) we play together with sticks and little (branches (that I throw (7) [and what about the dog?].
(I've had (8) my dog for (five years B and we love (each other (9). He (plays a great part in my life.B I (adopted (10) him when I (saw him in a (refuge. He is not very beautiful [Ca, ça ne va pas du tout …], (he's a mongrel (dog) (11), but I (really (12) love him. (I can't possibly (13) live without him. I’ll never (let him down TTB (14). 146

A noter que l'utilisation de he/him (au lieu de it) pour ce chien tant aimé par son maître est justifiée [Je crois aussi…]

(0) to say sth / to tell sb sth/ [to speak/ talk about somebody]
(1) en l'absence d'info, on ne peut préciser si c'est man ou woman [OK !]
(2) 2 possibilités [pas vraiment]: rather/quite + adjectif ou alors : adjectif + enough [j’aurais choisi « quite »…] Lien internet

(3) c'est l'action de manger => Verbe en ING [C’est un gérondif : valeur de nom qui signifie « le fait de manger ».]
(4) next to ou bien near sans to OUI.
(5) j'ai supposé que «we» était mis pour l'auteur + son chien ... (sinon, il aurait fallu préciser) [je pense comme toi !]
(6) plusieurs possibilités: Then / Afterwards/ After that. Mais after doit être suivi de qqch [de quoi ?]
(7) Le présent progressif impliquerait que l'auteur est en train de faire l'action. Alors qu'il s'agit d'une généralité, d'une habitude. [Oui, mais il y a mieux … ]
(8) I've got a dog. Mais si on précise que la possession actuelle date depuis un certain temps, il faut le present perfect
(9) we love ourselves serait de l'amour de soi-même et non de l'amour réciproque B
(10) ici, le present perfect aurait pu convenir si la phrase s'était arrêtée à :
I have adopted him. (je l'ai adopté) qui est le bilan de l'action.Oui.
Mais comme on situe précisément l'action dans le passé, le prétérit s'impose.OUI
(11) bastard est une insulte vulgaire [C’est vrai, mais pas seulement !... Lien internet

(12) plusieurs possibilités : I really love him; I love him, really I do! OK
(13) là encore, plusieurs possibilités : I can't/couldn't (possibly) live without him
It is absolutely impossible that I live without him (very ne convient pas. quite serait mieux) It is impossible for me to live without him
GrammarImpossible is not used with ‘very’. You say:It was an absolutely impossible task.✗Don’t say: It was a very impossible task.

(14) Je ne le quitterai pas => I'll never leave him
Je ne le laisserai pas tomber => I'll never let him down

Hello Here4U
Merci pour tes remarques mais (en tout cas personnellement), je reste frustré de ne pas avoir tes propositions là où tu as trouvé cela maladroit

Par exemple,
expression 1 : par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(when someone or something doesn't please me.

expression 2, par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(the character he exhibits, (the character he has, and (the character he thinks he has.

expression 3, par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(every morning and every evening.




Réponse : Let's Suggest/30 de here4u, postée le 07-02-2023 à 11:25:04 (S | E)
Hello dear Maxwell! [ Je commence 07/02 à 10H30. Ca va prendre temps et réflexion... PATIENCE ! ]

I certainly don't want you to get frustrated because of me... BUT, what I've been trying to make you understand whenever you asked for MY solution (in an EXPRESSION) is that there is no ideal solution. It will be MY solution... but it can't be THE solution... and my solution will be satisfactory for me, but may not be for other people...

What I find clumsy may well not be seen or heard as such by someone else... and what I would say may well be... There are hundreds of ways to develop one idea and none is right or wrong (if it doesn't contain mistakes!) The words and expressions you use correspond to what you're feeling facing a situation, at a certain moment, experiencing emotions that someone else wouldn't. (but they would have others...)

If I take your "questions" ...

Par exemple,
expression 1 : par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(when someone or something doesn't please me.

Je ne dirais jamais "someone doesn't please me..." Je l'ai cherché un peu partout, ai demandé autour de moi ... et pas trouvé ... mais d'autres expressions viennent à l'esprit : expressions plus "simples", moins calquées sur le français du genre : I don't like someone (Eh oui, désolée, mais c'est comme ça ! Les anglais aiment la simplicité dans la conversation...) ou "that person makes me feel uncomfortable/ ill at ease/uneasy/ etc." Il n'y a pas de "faute", mais ça ne se dit pas ... Regarde bien comment "please/ to please" s'emploie ... Lien internet



Pour ta deuxième demande, c'est plus facile à répondre :
expression 2, par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(the character he exhibits, (the character he has, and (the character he thinks he has.


Tu as une citation ... et si tu respectes bien les règles des citations - ce que tu n'as pas fait - la construction initiale est excellente. Elle correspond à la "traduction officielle" qui tient compte de la période où l'auteur de la phrase s'est exprimé et du style qui s'imposait dans la société à ce moment là ...

MAIS, si tu ne mets pas les guillemets de la citation, tu es censé t'approprier la citation et la reformuler "using your own words", ceux qui correspondent à notre époque et à ton état d'esprit quand tu écris ... Tu me suis ?

C'est difficile et long d'expliquer tout ça par écrit ... En classe, c'est vite fait, et on donne un exemple, on répond en direct aux questions/ objections ... il y a immédiateté et interactions, mais par message, c'est très différent ... Je ne peux pas exprimer mon ressenti à chaque mot utilisé (ce serait affreusement long, et très irrespectueux du ressenti des auteurs qui ont choisi "their right words")

3è demande :

expression 3, par quoi aurais-tu remplacé :
(every morning and every evening:
plus simple et plus clair : I walk my dog/ I run with my dog/ in the mornings and in the evenings!
Ne pas oublier cet emploi du pluriel qui indique qu'une action se passe tous les matins, tous les soirs On Mondays: tous les lundis etc. Every n'est pas faux, bien sûr ...



Réponse : Let's Suggest/30 de maxwell, postée le 09-02-2023 à 20:10:06 (S | E)
Hello!
Merci beaucoup pour ces réponses, mais pour le point 2, sans les guillemets, comment aurais-tu exprimé exactement cette idée avec tes propres mots, de façon moins "lourde" que chacune des propositions qu'on a faites ?



Réponse : Let's Suggest/30 de here4u, postée le 10-02-2023 à 13:36:14 (S | E)
Hello dear Max!

Qu'est-ce que je dirais ? Je ne dirais pas ! pas cool...
mais s'il fallait vraiment que j'exprime cette citation en me l'appropriant, je dirais quelque chose comme :

"... the personas they show, the persons they really are, and the ones they'd wish to be..." No I definitely wouldn't write (or say) that... L'idée est claire, mais je me serais arrangée pour ne pas avoir besoin d'employer le pluriel [ne me demande pas comment, sinon, je devrais réécrire toute l'expression, et CE N'EST PAS L'EXERCICE, ni mon rôle !] Hope you'll be satisfied, (or will have understood!)
