Hi my name is Max, and I'm Chinese girl currently living in US for school. I am trying to learn French on my own because I love French musicals, and hopefully one day I can understand them without translation. I speak perfect Chinese and fluent English if you need help with those two languages, or if you just curious about what life is like in America, we can be friends! A little bit about myself: I love reading, hiking, cooking, and music my favorite books:Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny, The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkien, all cthulhu novels, all Neil Gaiman's work my favorite music: Mozart L'opera Rock!!!!!! what else... oh don't expect me to help you with your grammar we Chinese don't do grammar it's a free language

    【两个月中文写作挑战】【第一星期:过节】【今天:法国新年】(2/61)

    大家好,两年前我做了30天中文写作挑战。现在,我想尝试花两个月中文写作挑战。我希望我的中文变得更好。请你们帮助我改善我的短文写作。如果你们不能懂句子的意思,请你问我。谢谢!

    我用的生词生词:鸭鹅肝,香槟酒,舞会,总统,亲亲,恐怖活动


    【第一星期:过节】【今天:法国新年】

    在法国,当圣诞节我们会跟家人庆祝,新年我们会跟朋友们庆祝 (比如跟好朋友们还是(或者、以及)跟好久不能见面的朋友们)。

    有的人喜欢在家里庆祝:人们常常准备一个餐,跟鸭鹅肝和香槟(人们常常会准备一顿大餐,有鸭肝、鹅肝和香槟)。他们也会玩,看电视新年节目,而且(或者/以及)听音乐。

    有的人最喜欢出去在(去)餐馆还是在和舞会。餐馆会服务提供特别新年的菜(I recommend "年夜饭"here...I guess you want to say "new year special dishes" but I couldn't find proper translations in my mind now ), 也可以会有一个表演。
    一个表演 is to specific
    在晚上8点 , 法国总统会在电视上给法国人他的(grammatically correct but we don't say it that way)新年祝福。

    在午夜,大家对他的朋友们祝新年快乐而且亲亲(午夜的时候,大家与朋友们互相祝福新年快乐,并且互相亲吻。)人们很晚睡觉还是(或者)不睡觉。

    亲亲is too informal here. I like this word though

    之前(从前/以前/过去),在大城市有会放烟花, 可是现在因为恐怖活动这样的项目被禁止了。

    之前is more like "before". You need to give a reference point, like, "xx恐怖活动之前"

     not terrorist activities ban this activity, but this activity is banned because of  terrorist activities
    次日(第二天),人们对给亲友们发新年短信或者打电话。很多法国人喜欢做新年决定许新年愿望, 比如更好吃吃更多好吃的,多运动,找一个新的工作……

    次日is too formal here. I only see this word being used in news or literature.



    Hope this helps!

    It's interesting to learn the logic of my mother language by correcting essays by foreigners...

    I can tell you have a hard time understanding how to use "and " "or" in Chinese. hahaha it's just, hard.

    Notice that when introducing traditions, we seem to use a lot of future tense. Like, "we will celebrate with families" "there will be fireworks" "people will stay up late"etc. I don't know if this is officially correct, but it's our habit.

    good luck with your study!
