30天中文写作挑战 (18/30) – 在法国学习外语
人们人经常说法国人不可以说不好外语。我觉得不是对。从两年级及,小学生开始学习英语。
中学里, 学生需要选择得点第二种个外语, 常常是德语或还是西班牙语。
有时高中的学生可以选有第三种个外语,或者 还是改变变化他的 第二种两个外语 : 一些高中提供中文,俄语,葡萄牙语人 ……
我学习了英语和西班牙语。
因为我的高中没有中文, 所以我在大学开始了学习中文。
我觉得年轻人后生至少要可以说英文。
可是我也觉得法国教的外语的方法部不是很有效。
实在,老师更集中语法,与其说话。事实上,老师们会更加注重语法,而不是把重点放在如何去说上。
PS.I think that learning a language requires a language environment, if you have a Chinese friend, then the progress will be much faster( what do you think about this sentence? Are there any mistakes?)
30天中文写作挑战 (18/30) – 在法国学习外语
人们经常说法国人不会说外语。我觉得不是对。从两年级,小学生开始学习英语。中学里, 学生的第二个外语, 常常是德语或者西班牙语。有时高中的学生可以有第三个外语, 或者更换第二外语 : 一些高中提供汉语,俄语,葡萄牙语 ……我学习过英语和西班牙语。因为我的高中没有汉语, 所以我在大学开始了学习中文。
我觉得年轻人至少可以说英文。可是我也觉得法国外语教学不是很有效。实在,。因为老师更注重语法,而不是口语。

blue: a better version
red: correction
pink: spelling error
1. 不可以 indeed means "cannot", but in this context, it means someone has certain ability to do something, ability> 能néng/会hùi, so the negative is 不能/不会
2. something is not + adj. > xxx + 不(bù) + adj. (in certain context, 不 sounds like "bú", not "bù", such as 不对 bú dùi(√); bù dùi(x)
it is not good> 不好, it is not sweet> 不甜, it is not cheap> 不便宜
3. 第二个外语 is not a wrong phrase, but "the second/third/fourth language", we often leave out the word "个"
4. or> 或者, not 还是
5. 中文> Chinese written form, not Chinese language, language and writing characters are different things, but it's okay because many Chinese mix these concepts.
6. 葡萄牙人> 人 means person/people
7.后生, this sounds a little old-fashioned in spoken language, well at least in Mandarin it's out of date, it usually only appears in literature or some old works, or maybe in other Chinese languages, but not in Mandarin, I never use it
8. do something rather than do/doing something> (更)....而不(bú)是..../宁愿...也不...
I would drink tea at my apartment rather than staying outside in this rainy day> 下雨天我还是喜欢在家待着, 而不是在外面(待着)
9. use of 了 and 过 is a little tricky, I know when to use but I don't know how to explain it properly because I'm not focusing on Mandarin linguistics anyway, so if I find more info about them, I'll let you know.

Today is day 18 of my challenge, I talk a bit about learning a foreign language in France. I hope you enjoy it, thank you in advance for your help! Here is the English translation :
People often say that the French cannot speak foreign languages. I think it is not true. In their second year, elementary school students begin to learn English. In middle school, students must choose a second language, often German or Spanish. Sometimes in high school, you can choose a third language, or change your second language: some high schools offer Chinese, Russian, Portuguese … I studied English and Spanish. Because my high school did not have a Chinese option, I started learning Chinese in/at college. I think that the younger generation (in France) can at least speak English. But I also think that the French way of teaching foreign languages is not very effective because teachers will focus more on grammar rather than focusing on speaking the language.
