Bonjour,
Pourriez-vous m'aider s'il vous plaît car j'ai une compréhension de texte à faire et je voudrais savoir si mes réponses sont justes.
Merci pour votre aide.
A• a few landmarks
New york city, at the mouth of the Hudson river, has five boroughts:
The bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, queens and staten Island.
In 1626, the dutch bought the Island of Manhattan from the indians for $24 and called it new Amsterdam. In 1664, the british captured the colony and renamed it New York.
• Neighbourhoods
New york is à multiculrural city. Asians and italians have settled in chinatown and little italy, african americans are the dominant group in Harlem but there is also a spanish Harlem. Many other origins can be found in the boroughts- for exemple jews from eastern Europe in Brooklyn, columbians and greeks in queens ( where 120 different languages are spoken).
•Architecture
The most famous skyscrapers are in Manhattan: the empire state building, the chrysler building and the rockefeller center are situated midtown. Lower Manhattan is busy with the financial district and wall street. It was the site of the world trade center and the twin towers, desroyed on september 11, 2001 ( also known as 9/11[nine eleven].

More than 200 films are shot every year. Finding your way is very easy thanks to the geometric street grid.

A• a few landmarks
New york city,(majuscules) at the mouth of the Hudson rRiver has (temps) five boroughts (verifier orth.):
The bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, queens (majuscule) and staten (maj.) Island.
In 1626, the dutch(maj) bought the iIsland of Manhattan from the indians (maj.) for $24 and called it new (maj) Amsterdam. In 1664, the british(maj) captured the colony and renamed it New York.
• Neighbourhoods
New york is à multiculrural (orth.) city. Asians and italians have settled in chinatown and little italy, african americans are the dominant group in Harlem but there is also a spanish Harlem. Many other origins(pas le mot juste) can be found in the boroughts (orth.)for exemple jews (maj) from eastern Europe in Brooklyn, columbians (maj. et orth.) and greeks in queens ( where 120 different languages are spoken).
•Architecture
The most famous skyscrapers are in Manhattan: the empire state building, the chrysler building and the rockefeller center are situated midtown. Lower Manhattan is busy with the financial district and wall street. It was the site of the world trade center and the twin towers, desroyed on september 11, 2001 ( also known as 9/11[nine eleven].

Quartier > boroughts
S'installer> settled

2. 5> NYC have (singulier) five boroughts (orth.)
1626> the dutch bought the Island of Manhattan from the indian (pluriel).
24> dutch bought the Island of Manhattan from the indian for $24 and called it now Amsterdam.

d) asians and italians have settled in chinatown and little italy, african americans are the dominant group in Harlem, there is a spanish Harlem. Jews are in Brooklyn and columbians and greeks in Quenns.
e) the éléments wich
in the text surprised them most are the architecture and the number of Nneighbourhoods . En anglais noms propres (y compris les noms de lieux, noms de nationalités, les noms des mois, des jours de la semaine) commencent toujours par une majuscule - vous devez passer par votre texte et de corriger les erreurs que vous pouvez trouver dans cette rubrique (ils sont nombreux) . Par exemple "Bronx" pas "bronx", "Dutch" pas "dutch" , "Chrysler Building" pas "chrysler building", " Asians and Italians" pas "asians and italians" "World Trade enter" .. "Twin Towers" .. "Hudson River", etc. J'ai corrigé une partie seulement de ces erreurs
Parfois, vous avez des lettres capitales où ils ne sont pas nécessaires:
"L'île de Manhattan" ... Seul "Manhattan" est un nom propre ici, donc "island of Manhattan" mais "River" fait partie du nom propre "Hudson River" de sorte que vous avez besoin de deux lettres majuscules ici - "Hudson River" (cette règle peut être source de confusion pour l'élève
