    Dr Strange (Spoilers!) J’ai regardé Dr Strange hier. Je l’ai aimé bien ! C’est un film de genre fantastique dans lequel un sorcier doit sauver le monde contre des démons. Le personnage principal s’appelle ‘Docteur’ parce que au début du film, il était médecin. À cause d’un accident, il a perdu le fonctionnement de ses mains, très important pour un chirurgien célèbre comme lui. Il a perdu tout, sa raison d’être. Cela suscite son quête pour trouver un moyen de se soigner lui-même. Au lieu de découvrir une miracle, il s’embringue dans une guerre sans précédent.

    Difference between according and regarding?

    Hi everybody,


    First of all, Merry Christmas,


    Today, I decided to learn two words which are practically (1) similar in French but not in English.

    These words are according and regarding.

    Indeed, according appeals ressembles "en accord". As you see it's they're (2) quite similar. Now let's talk about their meaning. In English, according generally refers to a speech of someone (or someone's speech). Most of the time, it is about a official member like spokesman member court. In french, the is meaning is quite the same. In fact "en accord" means the same thing.

    Regarding is near similar to " Au regard" in French. In English, this word means if we considerate this the subject of this thing, never mind the subject. Now in French is quite difficult and ambiguous. We can use it for both of them. That really depends of the situation. But "au regard" in French doesn't really fit (suit). For someone who learns French, "regarding" have to translate by "concernant" which close to according. That's why French people can be confused with by these two words.


    Thanks everyone.

     

    (1) you can say something is "practially the same" or "very similar", but "practically similar" doesn't work.

    (2) since there are two words, we use the plural

    illness and wish

    1. I want to express my illness, how can I say that feeling ?
    J'ai mal à la tête = I've got a headache.
    J'ai mal au dos = my back aches.

    Also -> I have back pain. My back hurts.

    Illness usually means a condition that is ongoing. A headache isn't really an illness. Illness might be more like having the flu or something worse.


    2.About what I want :
    J'ai envie de sortir ce weekend = I feel like going out this weekend
    J'ai envie d'acheter de nouveaux meubles = I have a mind to buy new pieces of furniture

    3.Do you have other example of sentences or expression ?

    I'm going to sleep in. (wake up late)


    Thanks you !!

    Journalism & Communication

    I am currently doing a Trillingual Assistant Manager HND. I can also help you to improve your French. I love Communication & Journalism.  I would be glad to debate on different subjects with you and especially to discover your perception of your society.

     

    Notes: "with you" isn't required but I thought it would make it sound better.

    "help" someone + verb : I helped the children read. 

    "help" someone + with something : I help my sister with her homework.

    The Wire Mon ami m'a dit que «The Wire» est une bonne série. J'ai commencé à le regarder et je suis vraiment d'accord avec lui. C'est une serie policier. Normalement, je ne aime pas ce genre de séries. J'aime bien les acteurs et aussi le script. Même les voyous ont de bonté et c'est facile de les aimer. Malheuresement, beaucoup de personnages que j'ai aimé, il sont morts dans l'histoire.
