The post where we speak only in english

maclem a écrit le 11/05/2014 à 14h21: I have a question : Est ce qu'il y a une différence/nuance entre Thanks et Thanks you ?

It's "Thanks" or "Thank you", and the difference is based on the grammar usage. Thanks is a noun, Thank is a verb. Furthermore "Thanks" is a little bit informal as "Thank you".

Thanks !

Progress is a false friend, your sentence is "I'd like to improve my English". And you said "You can help me?" but it's a question, the right sentence is "Can you help me?". I hope I help you

Thanks ! I know it ! I t's a careless mistake...

As everyone of my age, I have to prepare oral expressions for the BAC, and I have so so so many difficulties to write them I'm a quite good student in english, "précisément" in writing exercices. I love to learn english words, because I think english is a so beautiful language ! But I'm not good in oral expression, because I'm a little bit shy. Moreover, some of my classmates are like big boss in english, we could think they speak english since their birth !! So I don't "ose" to speak a lot in classe Sorry for writing lots, but I have to improve my english for my exam !! Thank you !

I think you've a good english written expression, and this is important. But, when you search a word, try to find an other word. For "précisément" I used "particulièrement" --> "particularly or especially"

This advice saves me a lot of time

"Oser" translate into "Dare".

I've never understood when to use the articles "the" or "a". I don't know when to put it or not. I only know that you don't use these words for general meaning. If anyone here can explain to me...

C'est en vous voyant écrire que je me rend compte que je suis nulle

My English is very bad

Yes, my teacher tell us this every week But I'm always searching words like in french ! I'm not good enough to always make my sentences directly in english (but i recognize that sometimes, I can do it ^^)
I'have noticed that watching english series, even with french subtitles, helps me a lot to improve my language ! Now, when someone is speaking english, I understand most of his speech ! And this makes me so happy

In the future, I would like to do a gap year, just to improve my language, and to chat with people about intersting subjects, not ones we talk about in class ... (I don't care about witches or Mc Carthysm , this is sooooo borring !)

My friend !

Girls, it's just my opinion, but I think you will have the time to improve your language during the next years
I remember when I was in college, I wasn't very good in expression. But I had a wonderful teacher, who turned me into an english lover

So don't worry, and keep trying to improve your english !


And apart from this, this post is such a good idea !! Now I can work for high school and surf on CA at the same time !! This is the beginning of the end

For you show my level English I have go on Google traduction Because I don't "tout" understand you text ...

It's depressing ... (d'ailleurs je m'aide de ça pour quelques mots)

I must advise you to go on WORD REFERENCE, when you search a word or an expression. This website always open when I have to work for english class

I promess, I will post more regulary on this post than the precedent (or previous?)
I make now "wordreference" in my regular tabs (one more , I have currently a dozen of tab sometimes -when my firefox dont crash it's rather around twenty )

Maclem, you are so young to go 2 month in a as far as Australia but I admire you
Are your parents OK?

It's my project in september to go in a country english-speaking with my boyfriend for a year before work really !

I have to translate my summary of traning report when I take it in french .
Will can I take you for correction please?

I hope I don't make so much mistake but I have a very bad level of English in a part because in 4ème and 3ème I had a teacher who prefer that we sleep than we take chaos so we had desorganised lessons

Sorry for the long text !

Maybe you can say :
To show you my english level, I have to go on Google Traduction, because I don't understand everything about your text

Is it right ? I'm surely not a teacher
