je'ais perdu la pomme a la sortir.
If you understand russian, it's pretty funny.
Pourquoi faites-vous capitiliser le pronom "Je" en francais?Je voudrais apprende le russe quant J'etais a l'universite parce que il etais graduit.
N'est-ce pas un anglicism?
(Do you capitilise the pronoun "I" in other languages besides English?)

Je ne sais pas. Ils capitalise "Je" en russe, aussi.
Je ne comprends pas parce que la Russe adorent la Francais. Apparemment, ils ont préféré conduire des affaires dans le discours plus cultivé.Je peux lire Dostoyevski et Pushkin en russe, et Hugo et Balzac en francais. malheuresmant, je ne peux pas parler et ecrire en francais.
(I don't understand why the Russians love French. Apparently, they prefer to speak in the more cultivated language.)

Ce qui est vrai pour la Russe n'est pas toujours ainsi pour le Français.Ils capitalise "Je" en russe, aussi.
(What is true for the Russians, is not always so for the French).
Mais oui Rah, je ne veux pas bannir avec toi un autre temps.

WARNING
IN ORDER FOR THIS NOT TO BE CONSIDERED ANOTHER thread of that prohibited kind.........IF ALL posts made in FRENCH include an English translation, then I won't close it down and other mods may show similar mercy.
If you are truely working on your French, as claimed, then providing a translation probably with strengthen your skill and allow others to learn or check your work.
I'll check back later to see if this SIMPLE request has been complied with.

rah,
you said that all french posts should include an english translation. I'm afraid that at least for me and I'm sure for many others, this is way too much effort and will ultimately kill the thread which has started out nicely and is providing what we are looking for meaning french practice.
I'd ask that you reconsider. For me to try and write in french and then translating everything I wrote in english is really very very hard and tedius. I think for many others too.
modbaiting is soooo last year.
Finnish is alreadyt accepted in Suomithreadis.. why don't you learn that and come there..

Il pourrais que vous avez raison. Je doit admetre que j'oublier s'il faut ecrire le "j" en capital ou pas!Originally posted by Ben Kenobi

N'est-ce pas un anglicism?
Donc j' imagine qu'il ne faut pas l'ecrire en capital?

while translation to english would be great for me, there are of course folks here (other than the Francophones) for whom English is NOT their native language, and they must already do some mental translating to get to english. To have to deal with TWO foreign languages in each post might be an obstacle.

I'm sorry to hear that then. Providing a translation would be tedius and pointless. And would ultimately kill the thread. A pity because it started out very nicely....Originally posted by Ming

And I'm sorry too... the point is that you are currently breaking the rules... it's that simple. So translate or be shut down. The choice is yours.Originally posted by paiktis22

There is no choice I'm afraid. You can shut it down or leave it open for those willing to go through that drag... I think very few will but I may be wrong.
Mes professeurs captilisent le pronom "Je" au debut de la phrase.Donc j' imagine qu'il ne faut pas l'ecrire en capital?
(They capitalise I only at the beginning, and not the middle of the sentence)

Quelle bonne idea
AHHH I need such a thread real bad. I mean I dont even know whats "because" in french. I know it in spanisch but not in french and I studied french for 4 years and spanish just for one now. All this spanish has overriden my french.
I am in between two languages, because I have forgotten a lot of french and I still know not enough spanish. Terrible!
Of course I can read it all what you are writing here and I understand it and get the jokes, but I cant write it... Sólo español veut arrivé a mi mind :-) (I am ready for Europanto/Esperanto I guess :-D)
I like to use Donc, but because is puisque.
There are plenty of ways to make that phrase.

how about this
everyone who posts in french has to translate into another language, but not necessarily English. So if Paiktis wants to translate into Greek instead, thats ok.
Or how about we limit it still further. Since the site owners are a Greek and a Canadian, anything posted en francais (in French) must be translated into one of the other official languages of one of the owners' countries - that would be either English, or Greek

Or someone can do a running translation of the untranslated French posts to English.
