hi, can you provide the original sentences? be sure to do that when asking for translations, because people might either not understand what you meant or you might make a correct sentence but doesn't mean what you thought it would (could potentially happen with tenses here)
Ces mots sont ta vocabulaire ?
oh, right! sorry, i didn't think about that, as i don't generally write the original sentences when doing example senteces. i'll edit the message!
i try to make sentences describing what i've read/ experiences that day. so if i'm writing a summary of my day, what words might i need to use that i don't know in french.
understandable sentences, a couple mistakes here and there. I could go into more details in a bit, but the thing jumping out to me is the choice of tense for your verbs
Do you know about present tense, passé composé and imparfait?
i know about present tense and passé composé, but i haven't learnt imparfait quite yet.
that makes sense given your sentences then
I may not get deep into details about that unless you want me to get to if you haven't got to it yet
for me, my french class is focusing on multiple different tenses at the moment, so it's probably best for me to wait untill i've got those down to work on imparfait. thank you a bunch though :)
just so you know,
passé composé and imparfait are the two most important past tenses
they work in tandem to convey different things and usually aren't intechangeable
some of your sentences use passé composé when imparfait would be best, but I'm gonna leave that on the side then
i'll definitely keep that in mind when i start learning imparfait! maybe i'll try learning it on the side outside of class. thanks again :)
« On forme l'imparfait à partir du radical du verbe (1re personne du pluriel du présent), auquel on ajoute les terminaisons -ais, -ais, -ait, -ions, -iez, -aient.
(Notez la présence du i aux première et deuxième personnes du pluriel.) »
other mistakes:
- if "class" meant lesson, then "cours" is the correct translation, not "classe"
- "il n'y a pas de moquerie" → you actually don't use an article when using negation
- you probably just didn't pay attention but your sentences "Ma voisine est bienveillante" and "J’ai l’accord de mon professeur" use present tense while your English sentence is in the past (also the letter sentence)
- "l'apprentissage du français" → "apprentissage" is not a "process for learning" but the "process of learning", so you can't use "pour"
- "écrite" is not the correct conjugation
that said, you use the highlighted vocabulary for each sentence pretty correctly
