Hello Dave,
How to contribute to the French Cheat Sheet? I noticed some few mistakes.
Hi LeDavid. You can leave a comment here, or email me at dave@addedbytes.com. Or you can make a better one! :)
This one is good enough. There is no need to make another one.
I think we can just make this one perfect.
I will email you asap...
Hello, here are some corrections (I'm french) :
- 17 is "dix-sept", not "six-sept"
- "père, mère" instead of "pere, mere"
- "frère" instead of "frere"
- "Merci de m’avoir aidé" instead of "Merci de m’avoir aider"
- "A quelle heure est le prochain train?" instead of "Quelle heure est le prochain train?"
- "Aidez-mois, s’il vous plaît." instead of "Aidez-moi, s’il vous plaît"
- "Où est la gare routière?" instead of "Ou est la gare routière?"
- "Puis-je avoir un horaire?" instead of "Puis j’avoir un horaire?"
- portefeuille instead of portfeuille
Thanks for your work !
Sorry...
- "Aidez-moi, s’il vous plaît." instead of "Aidez-mois, s’il vous plaît"
Hi eduens. I've corrected those issues. Thanks for letting me know about them.
In the essential phrases you could add something for going to the restroom/washroom :
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir ?
;-)
Good idea about the washroom bit.
Sorry, but even though the idea is good, I can't reward you for it like that ... :)
"C’est combien pour un verre de vin ?" instead of "C’est combien pour une verre de vin ?"
Quite right - thanks Faruk, I've corrected that.
Hi, just for information there is 2 way to say 70 and 90
French from France (see up)
French from Belgium and Switzerland : 70 : "septante" and 90 : "nonante"
:)
