Mon chat est assis sur le genou.
Sur l'autre se repose mon hibou.
Chaque un s'endort
Par jour de cours
Mais par nuit ils cherchent ses joujoux!
On one of my knees is the cat On the other my owl, thinka that Both asleep in the day But at night time.. olay! Disappear, with their toys, nothing flat I like it.
Thanks Wes, that is a magnificent effort of yours and covers all bases of the French. I shall print it off and file it next to my original.

I would like to translate this poem
when i read assis i thought it was a 'dirty poem'. thanks for translation. so the French is borrowed, but you put it into English? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - now, sir, i DON'T PARLEVOUS FRANCES? oops! i now know Parlez-vous français? is correct***** ============================== time for research online! : *****Mistakes will always be made in French, and now you can learn from them. Wrong: Parlez-vous Français? Right: Parlez-vous français? Explanation: The French word français has three English equivalents: French (the language) , French (the adjective) , and French (the person) . As you can see, all three are capitalized in English. In French, however, français is only capitalized when it is used as a noun referring to a person: Les Français aiment le vin (The French like wine) .

French Language Learn French French Vocabulary French Grammar French Translation When français is used as an adjective or the language, it cannot be capitalized: J'aime le vin français (I like French wine) . Therefore, parlez-vous Français? is incorrect - you have to write parlez-vous français? Many beginning French students make this mistake, as do many Francophones who speak English well - they start capitalizing français, anglais, espagnol, etc, whether it's a noun, adjective, or language, because nationalities and languages are always capitalized in English. =================================== Who knew? ? ? :) :) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - well, who can i blame if there really is/are error(s) in this? : But in the might they look out their toys. maybe..............But in the night they took out their toys? ? toys=claws/talons? ? bri :)
Yes, that typist again. She's so used to the word might. Might do this.. might do that.. depends on the reward. Don't use Google translate. It's crap at times. Just for fun I checked my first line. Sure enough it gives mon genou (my knee) but the french never use my when referring to their own body. It's always le or la. Someone once tried to translate one of my previous poems (written in colloquial french) and they got some very weird answers on Google.
