Thread Name: Corrections - French Texts
Subject: Corrections
I'm a native French speaker, I come from the Montreal area, in the province of Québec, in Canada. Yes, one of those not-yet-extinct, refusing-to-die francophones :)
(from a song: ) Québécois! Nous sommes Québécois!
hehehe
Seriously, while searching for lyrics for "Ysabeau s'y promesne" (that's the old French for "Isabeau s'y promène"), I noticed the various errors in the lyrics. Agreed, the lyrics are totally comprehensible, and I got what I was looking for, and I can correct the errors in a minute or two. However, while looking at the forum on related articles, I couldn't help but notice that this online community seems to suffer from a dire shorage of French speakers.
So here I am, and I raise this topic because I would like to offer my help to this database so the songs you have in French get corrected in proper French.
If someone would want corrections or translations, please email me at amaury_de_perigny@hotmailnospam.com (remove the nospam from the address).
As long as the texts are fairly short and music-related, I will do it NP. However, I will ***not*** translate/correct a thesis or such :)
