I work in ecology science and I am passionate about a lot of stuff ! animals, music (Lo-Fi, Trip-Hop, Traditional, 90s Hip-Hop, Classical...), languages, mythology, and other stuff. I've been speaking french for 28 years as it is my native language. I am fluent in english (I've worked in the US) with a pretty good accent for a frenchy (Ha!). Japanese has always sparked my interest and I'd love to find people who could help me discover the language and its culture. Please don't hesitate to reach out !

    Je n'ai pas passé assez de temps dehors cet été. J'ai été coincé à l'intérieur parce que j'ai dû préparer mon CV et mes applications d'emploi pendant 3 semaines. J'espère bientôt pouvoir m'échapper. (I hope I can escape soon. is that what you meant?)

    ps : "préparer mon CV et mes applications". If  "CV" is in the singular form and "applications" in the plural form, you must use an article again to specify it, this is why I added "mes" to your sentence. Not using the article in front of applications means that your sentence would be the equivalent of "mon CV et mon applications" which is impossible since "mon" is a singular form. hope it's clear :).

    Postuler pour un emploi peut être stressant. Il faut réviser son/votre CV plusieurs fois pour s'assurer qu'il est parfait. Il faut regarder de votre mieux dans l'interview de emploi. Le plus important, C'est d'avoir confiance en soi/soi-même.


    Comment : I don't understand what you are trying to say here. Do you mean that someone has to keep eye contact during the interview? That could be "Il faut regarder votre interlocuteur dans les yeux pendant l'interview/l'entretien "
    If you were aiming at another meaning, don't hesitate to comment and I will translate it for you.

    Les expressions françaises. (Merci pour la correction) (the word Idiome in French is a false friend, it does not share the same meaning as the english word Idiom. We say "une expression"  ...ou "un proverbe" which is more like "a saying" )

    1. Tu n'imagines pas qui j'ai vu ce matin... Le monde est petit!
    2. Hier, je n'ai pas marché parce qu'il pleuvait à seaux. (While it exists, it's probably an old idiom, never heard anyone use it. "Pleuvoir des seaux" ou  "Pleuvoir des cordes" would work better in a casual conversation)
    3. Tu ne dois pas t'inquiéter. Il vaut mieux que tu te couches... La nuit porte conseil!

    I second the Evernote advice.
    I've been using it for several months now and it is an awesome tool.

    - 1 note = 1 lesson
    - 1 paragraph = 1 topic within the lesson
    - I can embed in each note the corresponding pdf worksheets my teacher gave me for each lesson.
    - the title of the note is yyyy/mm/dd + the topics of the lesson so I have them sorted by date automatically and can easily go back to a particular subject.
    - I can write at the end of the note the homework I have to do for the next lesson so I don't forget it
    - I make additional notes "mnemonics", "useful links", etc, so I can store a lot of information efficiently

    Too many notes accumulated? Evernote lets you create groups of notes (notebooks I believe). You could have one notebook per month, year, language, you decide according to your need.

    What's your method?  :)

    There are not a lot of cinemas playing movies I know well in Irish Gaelic where I live in eastern Quebec.
    Yet another article tailored for english learners ! :)
    On topic, I always like homework even if I don't need the language for work. Even "old school" homework. If you can't spare 30 minutes in your week to do it, your interest for the language is questionable.

    I love how french people are straightforward when they don't like something, they are not afraid to be sincere even if it comes off negative.


    I however hate how chauvinistic they can be when it comes to other cultures.
