'Quantificateurs', révision!
Message de kenzo45 posté le 13-09-2005 à 19:10:52 (S | E | F | I)
"Débutants":
Remember?
"lots of", "a lot of","plenty of", "a little", "a few"...
Les "quantificateurs", quoi!!
Alors, dans les phrases suivantes,, certains quantificateurs ne sont pas les bons!!
Therefore, you'll have to correct them, OK ?, "Go ahead"!
1/ I love peas. Can I have a lot?
2/ I don't like orange juice. I only want a lot.
3/ Can I have some potatoes? Yes, there's a little.
4/ Do you want a few potatoes?
5/ There's plenty of ice cream! Well, I only want a little.
6/ Can I have a few water, please?
7/ Can I have a lots of soup?
Good Luck!
Question n°3: outre le quantificateur, qu'y-a-t-il de "bizarre"??
Enfin, que pourrait-on "modifier" pour rendre la plupart de ces phrases: "more polite"??

Using "some" instead of "any".
Enfin, que pourrait-on "modifier" pour rendre la plupart de ces phrases: "more polite"??
We could change the modal by using could, may and also add "please".
Thanks a lot kenzo!

Bonsoir Kenzo,
1. I love peas. Can I have a few more?
2. I don't like orange juice. I only want a little.
3. Can I have a few potatoes? Yes, there are quite a lot.
4. Do you want a few potatoes?
5. There's plenty of ice cream! Well, I only want a little.
6. Can I have a little water, please?
7. Can I have a little soup?
Dans la phrase 3, il me semble qu'il y faudrait plutôt utiliser there are (pluriel).
Pour améliorer encore ces phrases, il me semble également qu'il conviendrait d'utiliser "could" (ce qui me semble moins abrupt) ou même éventuellement "may" ou "might" (ce qui me semblerait encore plus poli, mais aussi plus alambiqué).
Merci, et à une autre fois peut-être.
