Hello again,
Sorry to repeat myself but you're great! Thanks so much for gently helping us.
Let's play together shall we?

1) - Il a emprunté tellement d'argent à son père qu'il ne pourra pas économiser pendant des années....
-->He has borrowed so much money from his father that he will not be able to save some for years to come...

2) - Elle n'avait pas expliqué aux plus jeunes élèves qu'il fallait se taire en classe et ils ont tous été punis....
--> She had not explained to the youngest pupils that they had to be quiet when in the classroom and they were all punished...
Did I have to use the Preterite instead of the past perfect. I wonder...
Anecdote: In the past, in Reunion, some parents used to punish naughty children with what was called a "nerf-boeuf", which was nothing but a stiff stick made of a nerve of oxen.
Yes indeed, when it comes to punishing children, adults can be so ... creative, can't they?
I thankfully never had a taste of it.

3) - J'ai bien peur qu'il ne soit plus là quand elle reviendra enfin ... Tant pis pour elle !
-->I very much fear that he might not be here anymore when she eventually comes back... too bad for her!

4) - Plus d'explications il donnait, moins je le croyais et plus j'étais certain qu'il avait toujours menti!
--> The more explanations he gave, the less I believed him and the more certain I was that he had always lied to me.

5) - Ne t'inquiète pas ... Je resterai avec toi tant que tu auras besoin de moi ...
-->Don't worry... I'll stay with you as long as you need me...

6) - Il a travaillé tellement peu et fait si peu de progrès qu'il ne mérite vraiment pas d'être aidé ...
--> He has worked so little and made so little progress that he really doesn't deserve to be helped.

7) - Peux-tu nous envoyer le plus d'exemplaires (que) possible ... Je veux en distribuer à tous nos amis ...
--> Could you send us as many copies as possible... I want to hand out copies to all of our friends.

8) - Elle a l'air d'avoir froid ! Je ne trouve pas, mais on dirait qu'elle est affamée et est très enrouée..
--> She is seemingly cold! I don't think so, but she seems to be starved and hoarse.

9) - Il y a beaucoup de circulation et je ne peux pas m'empêcher de penser qu'un retard m'empêcherait d'arriver à l'heure pour mon examen.
-->There is much traffic and I can't help myself thinking that a delay would prevent me from being on time for my exam.
I initially wanted to write: "a delay would hold me from getting on time to my exam." But nay, It's all wrong. I just have to stick to my dictionary.

10) - Il y a trois fois plus de spectateurs qu'hier ! Quel succès !
-->There is three times as many spectators as there were yesterday! What a success yeah!

11) - Il nous faudra le plus de place possible pour l'exposition, d'autant plus que c'est un artiste célèbre ...
-->We'll need as much space as possible for the exhibit, especially since It is a famous artist...

12) - En perdant conscience, j'avais l'impression de tomber d'une falaise au ralenti ...
-->As I was fainting, I had the impression that I was falling off a cliff in slow motion.
or is it " as I fainted" Argh! I don't know.

See you soon.

Hello Here4u,
Thank you so much for this hard and interesting work.
A lot of traps as usual
We still enjoy.
This is my try:
1) He has borrowed so much from his father that he won't be able to save for years...
2) She hadn't explained to the youngest pupils that they had to be quiet during the class and so they all have been punished...(it's not fair!)
3) I fear he might not be there when she comes back at least...Too bad for her!
4) The more explanations he gave, the less I believed him and (I) was sure he had always (lied) told lies!
5) Don't worry...I will stand beside you as long as you need me...
6) He has worked so little and got so small progress that he really doesn't deserve to be helped...
7) Could you send us the most examples (or specimens) as possible ( or as you can)...I want ( or would like ) to distribute to all our friends...
8) She seems to be cold! I don't think so, but she looks like beeing starving and very hoarse...
9)The traffic is heavy and I can't help thinking that a delay would stop me arriving on time (or on getting on time)for my exam (examination)
10)There is thrice more(I know,it's out of fashion,but I like it..) (or three times more) audience than yesterday.What a success(or what a hit).
11) We'll need the most space as possible for the exhibition, all the more ( or especially of the fact) he is a well-known artist
12) As I was losing consciouness (or As I was fainting)I felt like running down at half-speed from a cliff

Hi all of you ! You didrush on my austere translation ....
Refering to what kazan wrote :
'Anecdote: In the past, in Reunion, some parents used to punish naughty children with what was called a 'nerf-boeuf', which was nothing but a stiff stick made of a nerve of oxen.
Yes indeed, when it comes to punishing children, adults can be so ... creative, can't they?
I thankfully never had a taste of it.', long ago, I studied a text with my students explaining that some parents had used a 'cat o' nine tails' to hit their naughty kids ...
I had found a picture, but am, of course, totally unable to copy it for you ...

HURRAH ! I did it !

Finally, it didn't work ! I AM a Dummy !

Bonjour,
C'est la première fois que je participe au forum. Merci de proposer ce type d'exercice! Bonne continuation

He borrowed so much money from his father that he won’t be able to save for years

Hello !
All the individual corrections were sent, and I've just posted exercise 16 for the greedy ones !
This correction is ready and will be on line around 11 tonight ! to all of you !

Réponse: Exercice 15/thème grammatical de here4u, postée le 24-09-2014 à 23:18:08 (S | E)
Hello

Here's the correction and its commentary after your reactions to the individual ones.

1) -Il a emprunté tellement d'argent à son père qu'Il ne pourra pas économiser pendant des années...
He has borrowed so much money from his father that he won't be able to save any for years...
‘to borrow stg FROM sby’= emprunter de l'argent à quelqu'un ; ne pourra pas = incapacité au futur =>’he won’t be able to’; ‘Pendant des années' = 'for a long time' OU ‘for years’. Attention ! ‘for ages’ fait référence aux années passées.

2) - Elle n'avait pas expliqué aux plus jeunes élèves qu'il fallait se taire en classe et ils ont tous été punis ...
She hadn't explained to the Junior students that they had to keep quiet in class and they have all been punished.
Antériorité du manque d’explications => past perfect ; ‘se taire’ = to keep quiet ('shut up' est trop ‘familier’) Bilan d’action : present perfect = 'they have been punished’

3) - J'ai bien peur qu'il ne soit plus là quand elle reviendra enfin ... Tant pis pour elle !
I'm afraid he might not be there when she comes back at last. Too bad for her !
‘I’m afraid’ , ‘I fear’ + MIGHT ; ‘quand elle reviendra’= subordonnée temporelle => pas de futur derrière une conjonction de subordination temporelle.

4) - Plus d'explications il donnait, moins je le croyais et plus j'étais certain qu'il avait toujours menti!
The more explanations he gave me, the less I believed him and the more certain I was that he had always lied.
C’était, encore un fois, une progression parallèle, celle que beaucoup ont du mal à maîtriser … (tentation de considérer ‘le plus’, ‘le moins’ non comme des comparaisons, donc des comparatifs, mais comme des superlatifs.) Je sais qu’il existe pour les francophones en tout cas, une vraie résistance … En lisant vos premiers envois, je me suis replongée dans une nouvelle leçon, plus centrée sur l’unique point qui pose toujours problèmes .(leçon N° 106328)

5) - Ne t'inquiète pas ... Je resterai avec toi tant que tu auras besoin de moi ...
Don’t worry … I’ll stay with you as long as you need me .
Encore une fois, ‘piège’ classique pour un francophone : toujours ce maudit futur que vous n’omettez pas ‘naturellement’ !

6) - Il a travaillé tellement peu et fait si peu de progrès qu'il ne mérite vraiment pas d'être aidé ...
He’s worked so little and made so little progress that he really doesn’t deserve to be helped.
Il n‘y avait pas de piège, juste une insistance (sans élégance, je vous l’accorde !) sur ‘little'. ‘Progress’ est bien indénombrable et appelle ‘little’. Pas de difficultés, donc !

7) - Peux-tu nous envoyer le plus d'exemplaires (que) possible ? Je veux en distribuer à tous nos amis ...
Can /Could you send us as many copies as possible ? I want to hand them out/dispatch them to all our friends !
La grosse difficulté ici était de ne pas foncer sur ‘the more than/the most than’. JE SAIS que ces expressions sont correctes pour certains, dans certains pays, certaines régions, mais la règle est de considérer : ‘le plus d’exemplaires que’,et ‘trois fois plus que’ etc, comme ‘autant d’exemplaires que’(= 'as many copies as' ), ‘trois fois autant que’('three times as many as' ) ! C’est la règle, la seule qui vous apportera les points aux examens ou concours … Juste une toute petite gymnastique cérébrale …

8) - Elle a l'air d'avoir froid ! Je ne trouve pas, mais on dirait qu'elle est affamée et est très enrouée....
She seems to be cold/(freezing) looks cold ! I don’t think so, but it looks as if she were starving and she sounds very hoarse?
Attention : to look = regarder , sembler; to look like = ressembler à ; she looks as if/though = on dirait que (irréel => Prétérit modal); seems = (neutre) = sembler ; to look tired = avoir l’air fatigué (quand on le voit!), she sounds tired = elle a l’air fatiguée (elle a une petite voix). To feel = (se) sentir ; MAIS 'to feel like' = avoir envie de.

9) - Il y a beaucoup de circulation et je ne peux pas m'empêcher de penser qu'un retard m'empêcherait d'arriver à l'heure pour mon examen.
There's a lot of traffic and I can't help thinking that being late would prevent me from getting to my exam on time.

Il fallait ici distinguer entre 'je ne peux pas m'empêcher' = I can't help + ing ; et 'empêcher quelqu'un de faire quelque chose' = to prevent somebody from doing something ;

10) - Il y a trois fois plus de spectateurs qu'hier ! Quel succès !
There are three times as many spectators/as much audience as yesterday ! What a success/ a hit !

Alors là, réactions des ‘bonnets rouges’, contestataires, frondeurs et autres indisciplinés … que j’adore ! Par ‘économie’ de frappe,(sorry!) j’ai parfois mis ‘collective’ = ‘uncountable’: D’où les hauts cris, liens vers OCD et CCD (que, bien sûr, j’avais consultés moi-aussi !) Donc : lire ‘collective’ SE COMPORTE COMME un indénombrable ; ‘the police are' => 'much police' MAIS 'many policemen' ; 'the government is/are' MAIS ‘the members of the government’ (et pas ‘the government members’) Ca y est ! Je suis épuisée ! Pause …

11) - Il nous faudra le plus de place possible pour l'exposition d'autant plus que c'est un artiste célèbre ...
We’ll need as much room/space as possible for the exhibit(ion), all the more (so) as he/she is a well-known/famous artist./(especially as)
‘as much… AS’.Même règle que phrases 7 et 10 => ~~the more room than~~ = IMPOSSIBLE
D’autant plus que : 'All the more … as …'

12) - En perdant conscience, j'avais l'impression de tomber d'une falaise au ralenti ....
While /As I was fainting, I was feeling as if I were falling off a cliff in slow motion …(cf Love Story, when Jenny explained what she was feeling to Oliver !)
J’ai à chaque fois préféré la forme en –ing pour insister sur la durée ( subjective bien sûr …) des actions … Le temps semble très long dans ces circonstances …
‘were’ exprime l’irréel ; = comme si ! 'to be' au prétérit modal = ‘were’ à toutes les personnes.

Je vous renouvelle mes félicitations et remerciements ! Thanks for playing with me !

P.S. Avec ces fraîcheurs automnales, j'avais préféré dormir avec mon bonnet de laine rouge, crocheté par mes soins, et, ô stupeur! à mon réveil, voilà que des oreilles d'âne lui avaient poussé...
