Anyone that's very good at French?

Post by heroo »

Hello guys, I'm having a little problem with an assignment. Next week I'm going to paris and I have to interview a citizen of Paris about ''Sport in Paris''. For this I have to make some questions in French. But i suck really really hard at French, so if someone could translate the following questions for me in correct and formal French, I would be very very grateful. You'd help me out ALOT.

This needs to be translated, if you can translate a part of it, It would be also very helpful.

Code: Select all

Good day sir, if you don’t mind I’d like to ask you a couple of questions concerning ‘’Sport in Paris’’. May I have a couple of minutes of your time?

1.   Do you practice any sports?
2.   When answered ‘’Yes’’ > What sport do you practice?
3.   Do you think there are enough facilities for the sport  you are practicing?

4.   Do you think the Rolland Garros tournament benefits the city of Paris?
5.   What do you think of the Tour de France?
6.   Do you think the city of Paris invests enough money in sport facilities?
7.   Do you think enough major sport events are being held in Paris?
8.   Do you think the citizens of Paris are being encouraged to practice a sport? (ask for explanation)
9.   What do you think is the most popular sport in Paris?

10.   Do you think if more people would sport, there would be less social problems, for all those people would be involved in a social activity?
11.   If you could choose one sport event that should be held in Paris, which sport event would it be?

Thank you very much for your time, I wish you a good day.

lohl. I Hope you aren't interviewing randoms. When I went to Paris, I found they weren't the nicest people.

Two particulars come to mind:
1) Getting kicked out of a coffee place after buying something because I wasn't a local.
2) A group of blacks talking shit about my friends because most of them were white as milk, in the subway.

4-pensez-vous que le tournoi de (remove) rolland garros est avantageux pour la ville de paris?



etc.

Preferably you wouldn't use those sentence structures. But I corrected them so they make sense, but they don't sound very French from France.

If it's for a class assignment, the teacher probably wants it in formal textbook french anyway, right? What Ash wrote up for you will work just fine for that, unless you're in advanced or conversational french. Then you should get Dom's help, or maybe, you know, study some French :D

I loled.

Not even the right question.

@heroo

Guaranteed if you ask someone at work (e.g.: a cashier or something), as soon as they hear that you don't have a perfect french accent, they will answer in English.

edit:

10- should be more like...

Croyez-vous qu'il existe une corrélation entre la fréquence des problèmes sociaux et le quantité de temps consacré à l'activité physique?

Do you think there exists a correlation between social problems and the amount of time dedicated towards physical activity?



What he wrote is: "Do you believe more people would do sport if there was less social problems, for all the people involve in the social activity?"

Translator? There are some syntax errors. I guess it doesn't matter considering he will have an accent.

doesn't matter :P

I have lab tomorrow at 8:30am; I don't think I have time.
