Fluent in French?

[Keroin]

I need someone to verify that a few French phrases I've used in a short story I've written (not for Lit) are accurate. My French is...not so bien.

It would only take a few minutes of your time. Let me know if you can help a poor uni-linguist and I'll pm you with the phrases.

Merci,
K

Snowy Ciara is french canadian. One of her parents only speaks english, so she isn't REALLY fluent, but she speaks it well enough to (probably) verify french phrases. PM her and ask.

Thanks Gracie, I will.

I'm submitting this one to a fairly large publication so I do NOT want to fuck up the French bits.

ETA: Oh wait, doesn't Etoile know French?

Um, not sure. I know she knows ASL. I don't recall her knowing French, but that doesn't mean she doesn't.

I'm pretty sure Etoile knows more than one language, but not sure if French is one of them. She signs for a lot of different groups. Either person is a good bet your phrase can be verified.

 

[DVS]

This is from Etoile's blog so I'd assume she could help you.

My first language is English, but I studied French for about seven years in school.

If they haven't been translated yet, PM me with the phrases. A friend of mine has a bachelor's in Le French.

Will do! Thanks.

I speak french, but I am a little rusty.
If you go over to the french Lit forum I'm sure you can find someone to help you. I remember seeing someone on there who was american, french speaking. I was impressed with how well they wrote in french (writing in french, not my forté).
And, if all else fails, try babel fish on yahoo. It isn't great, but it can generally give you the gist of a phrase.
Good luck!

I'm looking for someone to stimulate my brains via deep conversation in the German language.

QFT, but fixed.

 

[Etoile]

desolee que je reponds si tard...unfortunately I don't think my French is good enough for this! I appreciate the multiple people who thought of me, but my French is so rusty that if you touch it, it will crumble.

You're welcome to try me but I make NO promises.

Shouldn't be a problem, we have a few German speaking guys around.

I'd like to fuck a French woman's bits, too. No translation necessary.
