Does anyone know French?
 
Hi everbody, is there anybody that could translate the following paragraph into French for me (not word for word, or done by an online translator please):

My Ideal Future Job.
In the future my ideal job should provide me with a lot money, and also be alot of fun. It also should be very good experience for me and would also bring in a lot of rewards, like a large sum of money. My ideal future job will probably be a self made business, which creates and sales games and software. Also my ideal future job should provide me with enough money to retire at a very young age so that i can do what i want for the rest of my life. The job should not be a big challange but a small one which will not need much people to run.This definitly would be my ideal job in the future as it will be easy, should provide high pay and will let me have an early retirement.

Lightning can handle this. But before you do French, how about proper English?

In the future, my ideal job should provide me with lots of money, and be a lot of fun. It also should be very good experience for me and would bring in many rewards, like a large sum of money. My ideal future job will probably be a self-made business, which creates and sales games and software. In addition, my ideal future job should provide me with enough money to retire at a very young age so that I can do what I want for the rest of my life.

French stinks. If I were president my first plan would be to: CRUSH FRANCE! MUAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

edit:And Just so that you know: I don't know french I plan to never learn french. (sorry for being off topic in the first spot and KINDA spamming in the beginning)

*offtopicalarm*

À l'avenir, mon travail idéal devrait me fournir un bon nombre d'argent, et soit beaucoup d'amusement. Ce devrait également être une expérience très bonne pour moi et apporterait beaucoup de récompenses, comme une grande somme d'argent. Mon futur travail idéal sera probablement des affaires individu-faites, qui créent et les jeux et le logiciel de ventes. En outre, mon futur travail idéal devrait me fournir assez d'argent pour se retirer à un âge très jeune de sorte que je puisse faire ce que je veux pour le reste de ma vie. Le travail ne devrait pas être un grand défi mais petit, qui n'auront pas besoin de beaucoup de personnes pour courir. Ce certainement serait mon travail idéal à l'avenir car il sera facile, devrait fournir le salaire élevé, et me laissera avoir une retraite anticipée.

I Babelfished it.

Jess June 8th, 2004 11:49 AM

lil`jose your spamming *Lookies at nice Report button*

And yes I know french. I have been taking it for 6 years now.And I will try my hardest to translate that...XD

edit: Ack.. Porygon beat me..XD

Porygon June 8th, 2004 11:53 AM

LOL! You were posting that as I translated it, eh?

Cherrim June 8th, 2004 12:08 PM

<_< You know I really shouldn't be doing this, since it looks like a big homework assignment of some sort. Plus, you won't learn anything unless you do it yourself, but... I'm bored. x.o;

Dans le future, mon travail idéal doit pourvoir moi avec beaucoup de l'argent et être amusant. Il doit être une bonne expérience et donner beaucoup de récompense comme une grande somme de l'argent. Mon travail future idéal probablement sera une [self-made] affaires qui crée et vend les jeus et les logiciels. Mon travail futur idéal doit aussi pourvoir moi avec l'argent suffisant pour permettre moi à retirer à un jeune âge donc je peux faire quelque chose pour la reste de ma vie. Le travil ne doit pas un grand défi mais un petit défi qui je n'ai pas besoin de beaucoup de personnes qui doivent diriger. C'est définitivement mon travail idéal dans le future parce qu'il sera facilement, il pourvoit beaucoup de monnaie, et il me laisse un retrait précoce.

@[email protected];; Er... yeah. I dunno what your level is supposed to be, so if you have no idea what "sera" or "me laisse" means, you should probably switch the stuff out for whatever you do know. And I didn't know how to say "self-run" because looking that up would have taken too much effort. x.o; And don't expect everything to be right. =P

edit: Babelfish isn't as good as everyone says it is. It's still only a computer, so most of the time it'll use words far too advanced or it won't make any sense. Plus, jaz_jaz asked for no onling translators. o.o;

TRIFORCE89 June 8th, 2004 12:42 PM

Ah yes, this could very well be something homework related. Err...sorry for "suggesting" you Lightning.

Cherrim June 8th, 2004 12:47 PM

Ah, think nothing of it. ^_^; I was already beginning to translate that before anyone replied to the thread so... =P

Google and Altavista have language translators, but you have to use proper (sp? LOL) grammer for it to work.

Miyu-chan June 8th, 2004 1:40 PM

*Is taking French but has a horrible grade in it.*

-_- and spelling... It's "grammar" not "grammer".

Rift June 8th, 2004 1:46 PM

i know Wee-wee and bonjour but i dont think that could get you very far though :P

Cherrim June 8th, 2004 2:04 PM

Actually, it would be "oui oui" XD;;

=P French is essential in Canada if you want to be able to read the sides of cereal boxes and the like. Er... but only if you're too lazy to flip it to the english side. *is that lazy sometimes* XD

Dizzy June 8th, 2004 2:11 PM

I'm taking French my Junior Year, just because I was born there, i want to know the language. I know very little words in French, but i can just start a conversation.

jaz_jaz June 8th, 2004 10:55 PM

Thanks everybody, i spose ur right, i will do this myself, if you want you can delete/remove this, i don't mind.

Cherrim June 9th, 2004 12:17 PM

And just another hint if you ever need it: NEVER write it in English and then expect to translate it into French. Always write it in French to begin with. It helps you understand the sentence structure a little better and it's easier to make the sentences work that way. x.o;

Frostweaver June 9th, 2004 12:20 PM

*points at the above* too true... you can plan what you say in english, but don't write a draft of it in english and then translate. Or else you'll be trying to translate word for word like an online translator...

DarkMage31 June 9th, 2004 4:03 PM

No one's mentioned www.freetranslation.com yet!

It flips the adjectives/nouns for you and conjugates all the verbs, so most of it is actually gramatically correct!

Frostweaver June 9th, 2004 4:19 PM

nope it doesn't (well some)... tried it already and even I can pick out grammar mistakes by that thing... at least the free version that is. But it does beat Babelfish by a lot.

Cherrim June 9th, 2004 6:17 PM

Even if there were a translator that would translate it perfectly, it still wouldn't be a good thing to use for schoolwork and stuff. The language it would use would likely be at a much higher level than what you'd be learning. And things like that are easy for teachers to pick out. XP

^_^; I remember once when I was younger, I was pulled aside because my teacher thought that I'd used Babelfish or something to write this science assignment when I'd only used my dictionary (mwahaha~ *is great* XD). Of course, after she told me this, I learned of Babelfish, so if she hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have been tempted to cheat afterwards. @[email protected];;

Although, I can't remember if I DID cheat after that. Probably. <<

Greed June 9th, 2004 6:30 PM

I dun wanna learn French, but in mah school its required to get graduated XP So I have to get it when I start school @[email protected]; *envies Lightning for her perfect French* X3

*dies*

Kairi June 9th, 2004 6:31 PM

Lol, I was talking to frosty and I was like “Erica even translated this thing for a guy in OC” and he ran to her instantly for help on his test. XD;

Cherrim June 9th, 2004 6:41 PM

oO; It sounds like you're bragging about me, lol.

XP I'm actually not gonna win the french award at school because I'm "only" getting 94. <_<; And it's *not* my fault for not having a 98 or whatever I should be getting, but I'll vent... not here. XD;

._. And I couldn't really help him because I only learned one part of what his test was on this year... XP
