    need help with Candian frech

    I know there are some french Canadians on this site. I am wondering if any of you know of a site to translate english to Canadian french. Of if you could type some thing up for me that would help too.

    thanks. I will give it a shot & let know how it works...or maybe you can let me know if it translated it right. I didn't realize until today that french in Canada was different than France.

    Bonjour je voudrais savoir vous allez payer l'article. Obtenir svp de nouveau à moi.

    Does that make any sense to you? I think it is the French they use in France. It is different in Canada than France right? Or am I wrong.

    Yeah, from what I know, I can understood with ease a «Français», but he will have some difficulty to understand what I said.
    I know someone who came from Prince Edward Island, he speak french but his accent is very hard to understand.

    Also, to keep thing more confusing, in Quebec with have what we call the joual. It use a lot a swearword and the prononciation is different.

    Bonjour je voudrais savoir vous allez payer l'article. Obtenir svp de nouveau à moi.

    So, you want to know if the person is gonna pay for the item. But your last sentence didn't make sense. Do you want to say that you want an other item for you

    how are you going to pay for the motor? Let me know.

    Good french:
    Quel methode de paiement allez-vous utiliser pour payer le moteur? S'il-vous-plait, laissez-moi savoir.

    Quebec answer!
    Comment va-tu payer pour le moteur. Dis-moi le.

    As you can see, usually in french it takes more words to say the same thing.

    Ya I want to know if they are going to pay. I really don't think he is. What is the best way to ask if he is going to pay? It's to bad there in not a translator that works for the French up there.

    Are you going to pay?
    Est-ce que vous allez me payer pour le moteur?


    In my sentence, I use «vous» to represent your buyer. It is a mark courtesy.
