Qiii, la réponse d'Audrey est bonne. Si tu veux utiliser un langage plus familier, lorsque tu as une cigarette à la main tu peux demander simplement : "est-ce que tu as du feu s'il te plaît? " ou "est-ce que vous avez du feu ?" Feu remplacera un briquet. En France, tout le monde comprendra.

Hi Julia, Sorry but your question in french is not correct. If you want to say "When are the summer vacations in france?" you have to say "Quelles sont les dates des vacances d'été en France?" or, in a more familiar way : "C'est quand les vacances d'été en France?" To answer your question : "Cette année, en France, les vacances d'été commencent le 2 ou le 3 juillet" The end of the summer holidays depend on the school where you go, and the town where you live. I hope this answer your question...

Ok. I'm a native speaker like marie-hélène. I'm quite surprised to see that marie-hélène only corrected one sentence. So here are my translations : Do you have to go now? (formal) = Vous devez partir maintenant ? Do you have to go now? (informal) = Tu dois partir maintenant ? Tu dois y aller maintenant ? (this one "y aller" is more informal than "partir". For example, "je dois y aller maintenant" is more often said than "je dois partir maintenant" when you speak to a friend. Or you can say "il faut que j'y aille" for "i need to go now".). Don't worry! (formal) = ne vous inquiétez pas Every Monday evening = tous les lundi soirs Maybe you can say "chaque" to translate "every" but it may depend on the sentence's meaning Each monday evening = chaque lundi soir How is the climate? (not weather) = comment est le climat ? Comment est l'ambiance ? You can say both. I am engaged. (with a girl) = we almost never say "je suis engagé", more "Je suis fiancé" ou "j'ai une petite amie"/"j'ai un petit ami" "j'ai un copain"/"j'ai une copine" I am worried. = je suis inquiet ("inquiète" if you're a girl) One way (Traffic sign) = "sens unique" : rue à sens unique / voie à sens unique / route à sens unique Where shall we go ? = Qu'est-ce que tu veux faire?/Où est-ce qu'on va? Will you have tea or coffee? (formal) = Est-ce que vous voulez du thé ou du café ? You can be more "direct" and say "Vous prendrez du thé ou du café?" Will you have tea or coffee? (informal) = Tu veux du thé ou du café? You can say : "what do you want ? tea or coffe ?" -> "tu veux quoi ? du thé ou du café?" I think this answer take all the best from other's answers. I hope it will help to reduce confusion...

Please Biba, Ask in english, because most of french speaking people don't speak arabic...
