In reply to Janet Baraclough ) who wrote this in
, I, Marvo, say :
"Et toi, tu jardines? Je vois que tu visites les literaires. Mon
Francais n'est malheureusement pas a la hauteur. Je crois que je
parle/ecris comme une etrangere. D'ailleurs j'ai un accent anglais
et les francais me disent qu'ils aimeraient bien parler aussi bien
l'anglais que moi je parle le francais. C'est deprimant."
As someone who worked en Paris for a good long time, I'd like a shot at
translating this myself, using the collouqial and idiomatic forms which it
embraces.
"And you, you garden? I see you are in the library. My French is sadly not
naughty. I think, I write and I speak like an alien. I sound like a Manc and
the French don't like me much but Australian English is easier for me than
French. My hovercraft is full of eels".
