Hello all of you again !

The individual suggestions for EX 9 are posted now and the collective one is ready to be, as promised !
I kept asking you what sort of exercises you wanted to have … Some of you answered ‘Translations’, others asked for ‘Rewritings’ … Consequently, you’ll have 5 sentences of each task ! Let's say (I tried to make this one less 'hazardous' than N°9! but well ... )
Well, correction for July 27th-28th. Good luck !
Here they are !

1) I wouldn’t like you to think you can do anything you want !
I’d rather
2) Robert didn’t apologize ! He was rude !
It was
2) Your dog should be examined by the vet after the accident.
You should
3) I’m sure she’ll be glad to see you again ! You’re so pleasant as a guest !
(look forward) (such)
4) You should allow your kids to go out whenever they want …
It’s about time
5) Speak only when they ask you to ! Besides, you must account for your answers ...
(unless)(passive in the second part !)
6) Plus tu rouleras vite, plus tu courras de risques pour rien ! A toi de décider …
7) Le médecin vient d’être appelé pour examiner le bébé qui a du mal à respirer.
8) On ne devrait pas lui demander tant de sacrifices … Il n’est pas assez mûr !
9) Vous a -t-on laissé une clé ? Ne le laissez pas vous interdire l’accès à votre propre maison !
10) Il aurait dû y avoir un feu de signalisation à ce carrefour, et ainsi, beaucoup d’accidents auraient pu être évités …

Reading my sentences over (again ...)I've just realised that they were not funny at all, even quite pessimistic ... not holiday-like ! Too bad ! I promise to make an effort next time !

. Hello! Les envois individuels sont bien avancés... au rythme des vacances, quand même ....
Vous avez tous bien travaillé et déjoué mes pièges ...
et Exercice 11 on its way and 'correction' as planned !

Hello !

As promised, here's the collective 'correction' or rather explanation of EX10 ! I hope it will help !

1)I wouldn’t like you to think you can do anything you want !
I’d rather you didn’t think you can do anything you want ! = Je préfèrerais que …
‘you didn’t think’ = prétérit modal à la forme négative. Employé derrière I’d rather + 2e personne (sujet du verbe qui suit) ce prétérit indique le mode irréel ; Ce qui suit n’existe pas : tu ne PEUX PAS faire tout ce que tu veux !
2) Robert didn’t apologize ! He was rude !
It was rude of Robert not to apologize/ have apologized.
To be rude = être impoli ; Il est impoli de la part de Robert de ne pas s’être excusé ; expression à retenir = it’s rude of someone to do/not to do something.
J’ai aussi proposé la solution ‘puriste’ en sachant qu’elle n’est que peu entendue …
2)Your dog should be examined by the vet after the accident.
You should have your dog examined ( by the vet) after the accident.
Revoir l’expression ‘faire faire quelque chose à quelqu’un’ (au sens passif)lorsqu’il n’y a pas de contrainte = to have something done => to have his dog examined
3)I’m sure she’ll be glad to see you again ! You’re so pleasant as a guest !
She must be looking forward to seeing such a pleasant guest again !
‘I’m sure’nécessite le modal de quasi certitude 'must'.
'to look forward to + ing' = attendre avec impatience.
Formes exclamatives : 'so + adjectif : he’s so happy . Such + adjectif + nom => such a happy man'.
4)You should allow your kids to go out whenever they want …
It’s about time you allowed your kids to go out whenever they want.
‘it’s time, it’s about time + preterit modal indiquant un irréel.
To allow somebody to do something = permettre à quelqu’un de faire quelque chose.
5)Speak only when they ask you to ! Besides, you must account for your answers. (Ne parle que lorsqu’on te le demande!)
Don’t speak unless you’re asked to/ they ask you to. Besides, your answers must be accounted for.
Unless = à moins que; la forme passive est de loin la plus employée.
Dans la 2è partie, un passif s’imposait aussi, avec rejet de la particule accolée au verbe.
6)Plus tu rouleras vite, plus tu courras de risques pour rien ! A toi de décider …
The faster you’ll drive, the more risks you’ll run for nothing … It’s up to you !
Plus … plus = progression parallèle = the more … the more …. (revoir la leçon si nécessaire) L’adjectif court ‘fast’ fait son comparatif en ‘fast+er’. C’est à vous de décider = 'It’s up to you !
7)Le médecin vient d’être appelé pour examiner le bébé qui a du mal à respirer.
The doctor has just been called for to examine the baby who has trouble breathing.
= on a appelé le médecin => passif; appeler le Doc = to call for a doctor. Au passif, la particule est forcément accolée au verbe dont elle dépend. ('for' est ‘tourné’ vers 'called' et ‘to’ vers ‘examine’ !
8)On ne devrait pas lui demander tant de sacrifices … Il n’est pas assez mûr !
‘On’ => passif ; ‘lui’devient le sujet : he shouldn’t be asked/required
He shouldn’t be asked for so many sacrifices ! He’s not mature enough !
Demander = to ask for something ;
Assez = Enough : Attention à la place de ‘enough’ : Adjectif + enough (mature enough); enough + Nom. = enough tea)
9)Vous a -t-on laissé une clé ? Ne le laissez pas vous interdire l’accès à votre propre maison !
Have you been left/given a key ? Don’t let yourself be denied access to your own house.
ON : => passif à la forme interrogative au present perfect.
To let somebody do something = laisser quelqu’un faire quelque chose.To deny = nier = refuser => to be denied = forme passive
10)Il aurait dû y avoir un feu de signalisation ici, et ainsi, beaucoup d’accidents auraient pu être évités …
There should have been traffic lights at this crossroads, and thus, many accidents could have been avoided.
Il y a = there IS/ARE = VERBE ETRE; il doit y avoir = there should be ; il aurait dû y avoir = there should have been.
Des feux de signalisation = 0 traffic lights (green, amber, red) ; a crossroads = plusieurs routes se croisent.
Auraient pu être = could have been + participe passé.

Well, well ....
It’s true that it wasn’t very easy … (there were at least 2 traps in each sentence …) and you all did very well ! Congratulations and thank you for taking up my challenges …
Oh yes ! A few other explanations … Correcting this exercise, I’ve realised that there are more and more non French-speaking Learners. Good ! That’s why I gave you still another form of my tricks … As you asked me for translations, I yielded for this time ...
Please, if you’re puzzled by the sentences (in French or by what you have to do in the ones in English ...), do not hesitate to ask for explanations in mps …
Thanks again for your effort and motivation ... You're a real pleasure to me ...
