Salut !
Voici un thème niveau
correction: Vendredi 15 Juillet courage
Elle s’appelait Jeanne, elle avait trente ans, elle portait un tailleur coûteux, des escarpins ruineux, un sac qui faisait saliver les femmes des cadres moyens, et pourtant, elle était à la rue.
« Je suis une clocharde », pensa-t-elle en épiant son image dans la vitrine d’une boutique. C’était presque ça. Une clocharde de luxe. Une clocharde nantie d’un bel appartement où il n’était pas question, pourtant, qu’elle remette les pieds. Elle était à la rue. En transit. Interdite de séjour chez elle comme à son bureau. Elle n’avait plus le choix de sa destination.

Hello Booboz,
She was called Jeanne, she was thirty years old, she was wearing an expensive woman's suit, ruinous lady's slippers, one bag which made the women of the middle managers drool over, and even so she was down-and-out.
" I am a tramp ", she thought watching closely her image in the shop window. It was almost that. A luxury tramp. A tramp provided with a beautiful flat where it was no question, however, that she puts back her feet.
She was down-and-out. In transit. Banned from her home as from her office. She had no more choice of her destination.

Bonjour Booboz97
She was called Jeanne, she was thirty years, she wore an expensive suit (or two-piece suit), ruinous lady’s-slipper ( or pump), a bag which made salivate the women of the middle managers, and yet, she was in the street.
‘I am a tramp’, she thought in spying her image in the show window of a shop. It was almost that. A luxury tramp. A tramp provided for a beautiful apartment where it was not question, however, puts back the feet. She was in the street.In transit. Banned from a particular place following an injunction at home and at his office. She had no more the choice of her destination.

Et Merci (j’attends avec impatience la traduction de ‘escarpin’que mon dico assimile à des chaussons ; j’ai trouvé ailleurs ‘pump’ US ou ‘court shoe’ ? Peut-être les anglaises n’ont-elles jamais utilisé d’escarpin style talon aiguille ?)

Hello,
She was called Jeanne. She was thirty years old. She wore an expensive tailored suit, ruinous dancing shoes, a bag which made middle class wifes envious and nethertheless she was an homeless person.
“I am a tramp” she thought looking at herself in the window of a shop. That was almost right. A luxury tramp. A tramp with a lovely flat, however, it was out of the question she set foot in it again. She was out in the street. In transit. She was not allowed to stay at home or her office. She had no choice of her destination.
See you soon

Hello booboz97.
Her name was Jane, she was thirty years old, she was wearing a costly suit, ruinous court shoes and a handbag which made the middle managers'wives drool over it, and yet, she was homeless.
"I'm a tramp", she thought while watching her reflection in a shop window. That was quite right. A luxury tramp. A tramp despite her smart flat where it was out of the question for her to go back. She was homeless. In transit. Not allowed to stay at home or at her office either. No choice of her destination any more.
Thank you .

Hello booboz,
She was called Jeanne, she was thirty, she was wearing an expensive suit, ruinous pumps, a bag which made the middle manager's women drool over and, however, she was homeless.
« I'm a tramp », she thought spying on her image in a shop window. It was almost that. A luxury tramp. A well-off tramp with a beautiful flat where however setting foot in was out of the question. She was homeless. In transit. Banned from her house as from her office. She didn't have anymore the choice of her destination.

salut!voici une proposition ...
Her name was Jeanne. She was thirty. She was wearing a costly suit and ruinously expensive shoes. The wives of junior executives would drool over her handbag. And yet, she was on the streets.
“I’m a bum she thought to herself, eyeing her reflection in a shop window. That was almost what she was. A classy down-and-out. A down-and-out with a lovely flat where, however, it was out of the question that she should set foot again. she was on the streets, in transit, banned both from home and office. She no longer could choose her destination.

Hello Booboz!... une petite question svp....
Vous avez utilisé 2 fois "down-and-out" (= no luck, no money, no opportunity), ce qui résume bien la personne, mais, vous avez aussi utilisé "a bum"--> "I'm a bum".....
Je sais quelle partie du corps est "the bum"... et je viens juste de trouver le sens de: "I'm a bum" ---> American slang = bad in quality and useless.
Est-ce que vous pensez qu'on aurait pu aussi dire, en anglais britannique familier: "I'm a loser" (=always unsuccessful)?
