Hi, I'm from France (Bordeaux), my name is Pierre, I'm a graphic designer currently working and living in London, UK. I speak French and English, and I want to learn Mandarin Chinese to get a chance to connect with more people, in London and in the world, and discover Chinese culture more in-depth. I'm on italki to learn to speak Mandarin (currently beginner, learning online, with Pinyin, but improving everyday), I don't know how to write it but I feel like speaking first (like children) is a good way to start rather than losing myself in Chinese characters. (another fascinating subject that I feel will be the next step after a bit of talking) I can also give tips and have conversations in French and English for people learning these languages.

    C'est presque ça, c'est même meilleur que "chouette" Il en jette! = He looks dashing, he is dashing! On l'utilise pour quelque chose ou quelqu'un qui est super beau. En jeter = infinitif (no conjugation) Jette = tu en jettes, il/elle en jette, etc...

    Bonjour! That's interesting, because I still don't get the ending either. (and I'm French. and I've seen the film 2-3 times) It still doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

    What I do know is that the deep meaning behind it would be about how people behave in front of love and a chance for happiness, and what they choose to make of it.

    I like "Ru Paul's drag race" (it's just plain fun with gorgeous dresses), that's the first one that comes to my mind. I don't watch TV that much (Netflix is my new TV), I feel like for me, Youtube has become my new TV. On Youtube I like to watch Tedx talks too, always very inspiring!

    The content is the same as it would be in English to be honest. There's no difference apart from it being in another language! ;-) Your strenghts, your goals, what you hope to achieve doing this job, etc, etc!

    Text with corrections, the below is correct: Il ya trois semaines, nous avons parlé du jour nous nous rencontrions. J'étais impatient de sentir votre peau contre la mienne. De voir votre visage pour la première fois, à nouveau. Je voulais sentir votre parfum. Nos conversations de luxure et notre amitié ont évolué en papotages maladroit. Je n'entends plus les émotions dans vos appels, je ne sens plus la passion que vous aviez autrefois. Je me suis senti mort quand vous avez dit que vous ne m'aimiez pas, mais je vous remercie pour ce soir.

    I've learned English because I was passionate about the culture, the history, about cities like London and New York that I find exciting. At school the teaching wasn't good, so I decided to learn how to speak properly by myself. By watching films, tv shows with subtitles first, then without gradually. I began with Disney films because I know them well and the language is easier to get for beginners. Same with Italian, and again the same with Chinese that I'm learning now. Hope it helps :-)

    Dans une conversation "casual", ils ont a peu pres le même sens. Mais "savoir" a plus d'importance. "Au courant" : = "je sais" mais a utiliser plutôt dans des conversations "casual" (english equivalent could be: to be aware of) Savoir : to know. être sûr de quelque chose, posséder un savoir.

    Le français de ces phrases est exact. (attention par contre, dans des affirmations positives on peut aussi trouver "de + l' " si le mot commence par une voyelle)

    Parfois traduire dans une autre langue permet de mieux comprendre: Pour le moment = For the time being (quelque chose qui est encore valable, mais susceptible de changer) En ce moment = Right now (ce qui est en train de se passer maintenant, au moment ou l'on parle)
