Saluut ! do you feel comfortable speaking in french while i explain your mistakes or would you rather stay in english ?

[terse dagger]

Hii! My french is quite poor, I'm not sure if I would be able to understand it. I'd prefer in English if possible!

[livid dock]

yea of course

your text is already pretty good you only did some little mistakes

" pour finir j'explique" here you maybe sould use the same conjugation as the first ones

" va pour (school name) en cinquième" here you say it the same way you would say in english goes TO (school name)

and what grade did you want to say when you say "cinquième" ?

[terse dagger]

Second to last year of high school, so before senior year

In america it would be 11th grade, but in the netherlands (my country), it's 5th grade

[livid dock]

i didn't find netherelands-france equivalent but if you know the american system you'll understand it

[terse dagger]

So it would be première? Thank you!

[livid dock]

"(name) né 2008" here is also the same as in english when you say (name) IS born IN 2008

i've been comparing parts of the text with english but i'm not sure are you fluent in english ?

[terse dagger]

I'm fluent in English yeah! I saw 'Edith Piaf née 1915' so I thought it was correct lol

Thats probably why I got some things wrong

[livid dock]

oh ok i get the confusion it's was maybe a title or something

but that form of sentence doesn't exist

[terse dagger]

Yeah, probably

Ooh alright, thank you!

[livid dock]

"ils sont tres intelligent es gentils avec moi" and = et

es does exist but is the second person singular form of the verb être

[terse dagger]

Ah oops, probably a typo

[livid dock]

and intelligent takes also an S because it's the plural

also maybe a typo but quelquel chose is quelque chose

"ils expliquer calme et trés bien." expliquer is not conjugated try to conjugate it i'll tell you if it's right

[terse dagger]

Ils expliquent? I'm not sure

[livid dock]

perfect

calme here is not appropriate you sould use the adverb calmly

do you know how to create an adverb in french ? there's a rule that works most of the time

[terse dagger]

Feminine form + ment right?

So it would be calmement I think?

[livid dock]

for the last sentence "C'est pourquoi mes héros" you forgot "they are"

[terse dagger]

Alrightt! Thank you for helping me!
