Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.
Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.
text check
- as less time as possible -> le moins de temps
quepossible - what do you mean by plaids?
- by "faire des cuissons longues", do you mean you don't cook your food a long time?
- dépenser de l'argent
àpour des choses inutiles
thanks
i meant blankets with plaids
yea thats what i was trying to say with the cuisson phrase
If you mean you use blankets with plaids (as in the pattern) you can say "des couvertures carreautées" instead of "des plaids"
To be grammatically correct, it would be: Je ne fais pas de cuissons longues. But for some reason that sentence sounds a bit weird to me. Maybe something along the lines of "je ne cuis pas ma nourriture longtemps". But it still sounds a bit awkward... And forgot your s in "inutiles" (since choses is plural)
In general your text sounds a bit awkward because we don't really know what you're talking about, and things don't flow so well together. It just looks like you're enumerating random things (especially jumping from showering to blankets to bicycling to cooking). I think to make it better you can make it more clear what it's about, or have a thread of continuity (like, why do we talk about blankets and bicycling in the same sentence? What do they have in common?). If the subject is your life habits, then use that as a thread to connect the sentences/sub-subjects together
Thanks, i forgot to mention the context was a homework asking me to tell what do i do to conserve energy
