Je parle très peu le français. J'utilise un français au dictionnaire anglais et un pas si bon traducteur. J'utilise un français au dictionnaire anglais et un pas si bon traducteur.

Merci Beaucoup,

Je parle très peu le français aussi. Perhaps your post has no mistakes and that's why nobody has responded. Maybe you should try to write something more complicated. Wink

I think nobody can unsterstand what you are saying. What is the meaning of " J'utilise un français au dictionnaire anglais" ?

Thank you very much for correcting my english. My english is so bad that you are going to have a lot of work ! I learnt it at school but I have been 23 years without using it, so I can understand hardly (with many difficulties) a text but I cannot write easily neither express what I want to say with all the nuances I would agree to.

(Everybody will think that I am a very old and white haired woman, without teeth and using a stick and glasses !)

Corrections: Thank you very much for correcting my English. My English is so bad that you are going to have a lot of work ! I learnt it at school but I have been 23 years without using it (I haven't used it in 23 years), so I can barely understand (with many difficulties) a text but I cannot write easily or express what I want to say with all the nuances I would like to. (Everybody will think that I am a very old, white haired woman, without teeth, carrying a cane and wearing glasses !)

I am very happy because my english is not so bad that you couln't understand ! Thank you very much for correcting. I am also very surprised because my english teacher used to say that it was bad education to use the ' (for example isn't it) and she forbidden it. If I had to write to an important person must I used the ' or not ? Is it only used between friends or in a forum?

Corrections: I am very happy because my English is not so bad that you couldn't understand me/it! Thank you very much for correcting me. I am also very surprised because my English teacher used to say that it was bad manners/form/style to use the ' (for example isn't it) and she forbid/forbade it. If I had to write to an important person should I use the ' or not ?

Comment: We use the apostrophe to form contractions which are used in informal, mostly spoken English. Contractions should not be used in a formal, serious situation. Wink
