Hello

Voici un thème assez facile pour toutes et tous
Enjoy yourselves!
Niveau
Correction vers le 25 août

Les grandes vacances ont commencé début juillet, et Kevin adore cette période. Il fait ce qu'il veut, enfin, presque, parce que Maman veille. Mais en général nous préférons lui faire plaisir plutôt que l'empêcher de profiter des vacances. Un jour je l'ai emmené dans un restaurant japonais car je sais qu'il aime manger des sushis. Nous avons beaucoup aimé ce déjeuner juste pour nous deux. La semaine prochaine il aura 6 ans. Comme le temps passe vite!
Il est parti pendant quelques jours avec ses parents. Quand il reviendra, il aura une grande fête pour son anniversaire. Il aura des cadeaux aussi. En février dernier il m'avait donné une liste de choses entre lesquelles je pouvais choisir ce que je voulais lui offrir. Il est toujours bien organisé!

Hello,

The summer holidays started beginning of July, a time Kevin particularly loves. He can do whatever he wants, well, almost, for Mum is watching. We usually prefer to let him have fun, rather than prevent him from enjoying his vacations. One day I took him to a Japanese restaurant, for I know how much he loves sushi. We enjoyed this lunch-for-two enormously. He'll be 6 next week. Time flies by so quickly!
He's now gone with his parents for a few days. When he returns, he will have a big party for his birthday. He'll get presents too. Last February, he had let me have a list of things among which I could choose what I wanted to give him. He is such a well-organized little boy!

Hello Lucile,

Thanks a lot for this new exercise

Nearly 6 years old ...

The summer holidays started at the beginning of July and Kevin loves that period.
He does what he wants, finally, almost, because his Mum takes care. But generally we prefer to please him rather than to prevent him from enjoying holidays.
One day I took him along in a Japanese restaurant because I know he likes eating sushis.
We liked that lunch very much, right for us two.
Next week he will be 6. How time passes quickly!
He left during a few days with his parents. When he returns, he will have a big party for his birthday.
He will get gifs too.
Last February, he had given me a list of things between which I could choose what I wanted to offer to him.
He's always well organized!

Have a nice day.

Hello Lucile,

At beginning of July, the summer holidays started. Kevin, a six-years-old boy loves this time enormously. He can do whatever he likes, well, almost! Mum keeps eye on it.
We usually prefer to let him enjoying his vacations and not to prevent him to have fun.
One day I decided to go eating with him to a Japanese restaurant. I know how much he loves Sushi. We were enjoyed from our diner juste for us two.
Now he's gone for a few days with his parents. Next week he will be six years old. So quickly, time flew over! When he comes back, he will have a great birthday-party.
Last February he gave me a list of things and I can choose what I will offer to him. He'll get presents from his friends too.

and here my proposal :

The summer holidays began early in july and Kevin loves this period. He does what he likes, but nearly so , as Mummy keeps watching over. But mostly we prefer to please him rather than prevent him from making the most of his holiday. One day I took him in a Japanese restaurant because I know he loves eating sushis. We enjoyed very much this lunch just for the both of us. Next week he will be 6 years old. How fast does the time pass !
He left for a few days with his parents. When he gets back there will be a big festival for his birthday. He will get presents as well. In last february he had given me a list of things I could choose between what I would offer him. He keeps always well-organized !

Hello,

The summer break started at the beginning of July and Kevin loves this period of the year. He does what he wants, well, almost, because Mom is always there to check. But most of the time we prefer to please him rather than not letting him enjoy his vacation. One day I took him to a Japanese restaurant because I know he likes eating sushi. We really enjoyed that lunch just for the two of us. Next week he is turning 6. Time goes by so quickly! He's gone away for a few days with his parents. When he gets back he'll have a big party for his birthday. He'll get presents, too. In February he gave me a list of things and he told me to pick what I want to offer him. He is always well organized.

Lucile!

Good evening

The summer holidays have started at the beginning of July and Kevin adore that time. He does what he wants, well, not really, because Mum looks after him. But usually we prefer to make him happy rather than prevent him to enjoy holidays.
One day I took him to a Japanese restaurant because I know he likes eating sushis.
We really have enjoyed this lunch just for the both of us. Next week he will be 6. Time flies !
He is gone for some days with these parents. When he comes back, he will have a big birthday’s party.
He will have presents too.Last February he had given me a list of things from which I could choose what I wanted to offer him. He is always organized.

Thank you very much for your exercise!

Hello

Merci à vous toutes, tous, d’avoir participé malgré l’appel de la piscine ou de la mer, ou du soleil…On aura encore de belles journées (il faut un peu de pluie quand même).
J’ai remarqué que beaucoup savent déjouer les pièges tendus par mon innocent clavier ! bravo !
Si vous avez des questions sur vos traductions, une correction que vous ne comprenez pas, vous pouvez me demander, je vous répondrai volontiers.
See you later

Voici ma proposition:

Summer holidays started at the beginning of July, and Kevin loves this period. He can do all that he wants, well, not exactly all, because Mother is watching him. But we generally let him have fun rather than prevent him from enjoying his holidays. One day I took him to a Japanese restaurant as I know he likes eating sushi. The two of us really enjoyed having lunch together. Next week he will turn 6. How time flies!
He has gone with his parents for a few days. When he comes back, he will be having a great birthday party. He will be offered gifts too. Last February he gave me a list of things from which I could choose what to get him. He is always well-organised!

Quelques commentaires:

-The summer holidays have started…non, on doit employer le prétérit; action passée, datée et terminée.
-Sushis en français devient sushi en anglais, pas de pluriel.
-Next week he will turn 6 plutôt que he will be 6 sinon ça me fait penser qu’il va rester bloqué à 6 ans toute sa vie…mais non je ne suis pas maniaque.
-Prevent from + -ing.
-How time flies suffit car le verbe fly ici exprime la vitesse et il est inutile de rajouter fast ou quickly.
-Last February, he had given…oops; le prétérit est de rigueur. L’action est passée, datée et terminée. C’était un gros piège du français…sorry.
-When he will come back … oops !! un autre gros piège.
-Choisir entre X ou Y =choose between X or Y. Choisir entre plusieurs choses = choose from several things.
There are plenty of restaurants to choose from.
choose between A and/or B She had to choose between staying in the UK or going home.
Lien internet

-Well- organised avec trait d’union. Avec un s en British English, un z en American English.

Hello

Sorry I didn't get around to posting this sooner...

Summer vacation started at the beginning of July and Kevin loves this stretch of time. He can do what he pleases, well, almost because mom is watching. But in general we like for him to have fun instead of keeping him from enjoying his vacation time. One day I met him at a Japanese restaurant because I know he likes sushi. We very much liked our lunch, just the two of us. The following week, he'll be six. How time flies! He left for several days with his parents. When they return, he will have a big birthday party. He will get some gifts too. Last February, he gave me a list from which I could choose what to get him. He is so well organized.

Bonsoir Lucile,
C'est vrai, c'est bien d'avoir une autre version, cela permet de voir d'autres tournures, d'autres mots, merci notrepere.

Je me demandais aussi s'il vous plaît,si c'est possible de poser des questions plus tard, c'est que j'en ai et vous avez mis "volontiers"...alors du coup ça me tente! mais c'est que ça tombe mal pour moi en ce moment, je manque un peu de temps...Si je pose mes questions avant la fin de semaine, ça ira pour vous ? ce n'est pas trop tard ?
Merci.

Bonjour,
J'ai vu le sujet trop tard pour proposer une traduction entière mais j'ai deux questions :
- n'aurait -on pas pu traduire :his mum watches out ( en considérant que c'est son habitude de le protéger !)
- de même que la dernière phrase : He has always been a well-organised little boy! ( avec un sourire à la clè )

Merci

Bonjour moka81,

- Mother/Mum is watching him exprime au contraire la surveillance permanente et en plus c'est un clin d'oeil au célèbre 'Big Brother is watching you' de G.Orwell dans son roman 1984.

- He is always well-organised est un état permanent, avec le verbe to be qui ne sera pas mis au present perfect de ce fait, mais laissé au présent.

Bonsoir Lucile,

Ce que je me demandais, c'est au sujet de "enjoyed having" ...je ne comprends pas le "having" dans la phrase pourquoi est il mieux d'écrire avec la forme "ing" pourquoi pas avec "to have" ?
- The two of us really enjoyed having lunch together.
Et puis sur cette phrase aussi :
- He will be having a great birthday party. Pourquoi ne pas le traduire par un futur simple ?
Et puis la dernière question que je me posais :
- I could choose what to get him.
Je ne saisis pas, pourquoi "get" dans cette phrase...Je n'arrive à le traduire.
Merci beaucoup!

Hello sanna,

- The two of us really enjoyed having lunch together. ...enjoy est suivi d'un gérondif; voici une liste de verbes suivis du gérondif:
Lien internet

- He will be having a great birthday party. Pourquoi ne pas le traduire par un futur simple ? ...c'est un choix personnel car je sais par expérience que les anniversaires de nos chers loulous durent longtemps, et j'ai voulu souligner l'idèe de longueur; will have est très correct aussi.

- I could choose what to get him....voir ce lien
Lien internet

bring
4 [transitive]
to go to a place and bring somebody/something back
Synonym fetch
get somebody/something Quick— go and get a cloth!
Somebody get a doctor!
I have to go and get my mother from the airport (= collect her).
get something for somebody Get a drink for John.
get somebody/yourself something Get John a drink.

Get a de nombreuses significations, dont celle d'apporter/donner; dans le passage en question j'avais déjà employé 'give' et je voulais éviter aussi la répétition de 'offer'.
He will be offered gifts too. Last February he gave me a list of things from which I could choose what to get him.
J'ai donc utilisé get qui est passe-partout et a servi de synonyme aux 2 autres verbes.

J'espère avoir répondu à vos interrogations, et vous remercie encore pour tous vos efforts, sans oublier les autres participants.
