After this, for the second foreign language, we had more options but those who hadn't chosen english at first had to take it for there second (compulsory).

 

This is hard to explain as the situation becomes even more confusing with the second foreign language the student has to choose as a second language.

 

I would say it as it is.

 

As for the second foreign language, English would be compulsory had we not chosen it at first; otherwise, all the choices remain open.

 

I would say part of France instead of place, what do you think?

 

parts of france; different parts of France ect...

 

A separate thread for different ways to communicate via sms would be of great help. Thanks ;

 

I think that U R THE specialist and me the "marble" (do you know an expression, a bit familiar & funny, to say "bille", "quiche", "bidon" or something like this ? :D)

10x 40 = thanks for tea :yes:

 

:confused: arrggg (ohh good idea !! After my desire to learn more about the text message....what about the english onomatopoeia ??)

 

Why the by (x) between the 10 & the 40 ??! That's why it was too hard for me to find your joke !

bille= small ball ou quiche= tarte au lard same in English : serving quiche for breskfast ; bidon=recipient= bucket ou bidon=sans valeur= worhtless.

Le jeu de billes is game of marbles though. Go play marbles with chidren like you!

 

 

But I don't know the slang meaning of the words above, only the proper one.

benn desolé mais je croi pas que ca colle trop avec le contexte ..

 

moi je croi que ca donne ca " quelle que un croi que ca vaux la peine de cherché un compromis" mais je suis pas sur ...

 

voila je met tout le paragraphe pour saisir bien le contexte

 

"he end result could be a future deal where some commercial whaling is permitted in return for Japan dropping its Antarctic scientific hunt. Some anti-whaling governments have deep reservations about the new strategy. But conservation groups are divided. Some believe it's worth pursuing a compromise that could result in fewer whales being killed each year, whereas others argue that a total global ban is the only goal worth fighting for. "

 

et merci encor :)

Yes you're right !!

I don't know why I have taken "believe" as a noun and no as a verb :crazy:

merci beaucoup pour ton aide..

mon anglais n'est pas encore bon pour pouvoir répondre comme il faut, ..

 

I suggest this translation: D'aucuns pensent qu'un compromis mérite d'être poursuivi.

 

 

Worth is a noun and a verb at the same time and has the meaning of meriter in French.

 

و البعص يقتطرح السعي للتنازلات أو للحل الوسط

Hello my dear ! It's nice to read you in english and for the few mistakes it's doesn't matter...the most important it's to understand you ! :)

 

So you're right it's called "cover letter" and the "CV" is a "resume"

 

PS : :fish2: it's so cute !

It's rather a job cover letter or a letter of motivation, also there is what is called references and letters of recommandation from your former employer.

ok

Covering letter = "references" or "letters of recommandation"

 

end

job cover letter = lettre de motivation.

 

c'est ca ??:emlaugh:

Wich is different than Employment Application, wich is merely une demande d'emploi. And establishes an interest in the position sought by the employer.
