French topic!

We have a topic for talking in Spanish. . . . Why not French? Or am I the only one who is learning French/knows it?

*Clears throat* Salut! Je m'appelle Corny. Je suis une fille. J'ecris un livre. (It's in the panning stage, but. . . . Technically, that counts.)

. . . . Okay. Je suis mange un pomme.

something something something apple?

Jetthebinturong · October 16, 2015, 08:41:05 PM

It was "I ate an apple."

Mmmhmm. I'm not very fluent yet. You can probably tell.

I can easily translate the first post and the second so no, it's not that easy to tell. In case anyone was wondering, the first post says "Hi! My name is Corny. I am a girl. I'm writing a book." The simple sentence structure can be solved quite easily. Instead of "Je suis une fille. J'ecris un livre." you could have "Je suis une fille ET j'ecris un livre." Or, something that makes more sense, "Salut, je m'appelle Corny et je suis une fille." or if you wanted to have the whole thing as one sentence you could have "Salut, je m'appelle Corny et je suis une fille; aussi j'ecris un livre."

Wow. Thank you!

Strange question: What exactly is the difference between 'mange,' 'manges,' and 'mangeon'? The course I'm taking got me really confused on that

Is that for the

It's 'Je mange une pomme'. I think 'suis' means have.

"Je mange un pomme" doesn't make sense, it would be "Je mangeR un pomme."

"Je suis mange un pomme." Is the past tense.

Ich habe eine Apfel gegessen.

Or "ein" or "einen", no idea... that's the one thing that bugs me about German

I think so? I'm not sure. Ah, well, perhaps it'll tel me later.
