French Help. (Aidez-moi, s'il vous plaît).

Hello everyone. I'd really appreciate some help with this. I wrote a poem in French class when I was in high school (over 13 years ago) and my teacher kept the corrected version of it. So all I have is the rough draft with all kinds of mistakes. I'd really appreciate some help. Here goes:

1). "Dans un café dans Paris assied un homme." Is "dans" ( Read more... )

Okay, others will have to help you further since I'm Dutch and know some French but not all, but perhaps a little help:

1) I think it is Dans un café a Paris, and I think sitting down in French is reflective so s'addied? un homme.

2/3) I think around him is autour de lui, I'm not sure what 'those' would be.

4) pas du tout is correct, but interesting is interessant I think: Il n'et pas du tout interessant. (Correct me on word order, pelase.)

5) I think you mean while in the sense of although (right), so you could say Et bien que leurs convesations changent, un homme reste... le même, I think - again, not sure.

Hope this helps a bit and hope others correct me :P

s'assied, obviously. not s'addied.

yeah I think the 4th one if you have "interesse" as the non-reflective verb you'd have something about the man not being interested at all, not about him not being interesting.
