SO lets goooooooo....
For this first time its my turn to put one french word.
élève : shaguirld : pupil
I have translated it for people who haven't already bought a dictionary....LOLz
un élève doit apprendre sa leçon tous les jours.
eck shagirld ko sabak rozana sikna perta hai.
a pupil has to learn his lessons every day
Don't forget i'm not pakistani or indian and i haven't learnt hindi/urdu at school so don't laugh at me and it will be the best way for all, lolzzz.
In another post you are all welcome too to help me with my poor hindi/urdu.....
Alicia
à votre tour : aapki barhi : your turn |

Would you answer specific doubts too?
Like what is the difference between the pronunciation of é and è ? To me both seem to be like ay in Bay.
Is one shorter?
My word:
essayer = to try
J'essaye d'apprendre le français.
Is that right? |

For prunonciation we'll have to talk lol, therefore it won't be easy to explain.
But of course there is a difference betwee é and è. This one è could be prononciated as ay in bay, right.
You are courageous, great. You have put your first word in french.
essayer : koshish karna : to try.
We'll also have try to write it in hindi/urdu for people who aren't sure of their english. It has been to be for all, i hope so.
So i can understand you aren't living in France so i can understand if in the beginning you aren't easy to make sentences. But after a while you'll have to do, too, lolzzz, no way on.
J'essaye d'apprendre le français.
May french sikna koshish karta/karti hon.
I'm trying to learn french.
Naturally by little sentences we'll write, you'll take insurance in yourself because you'll understand yourself how its working. Don't be ashamed to make mistakes, look at me, with my poor english and hindi, i'm trying to do my best and if i was ashamed, so it will be difficult to help others now.... |
