Learn French 13

July 8, 2010 - 7:13 am 25 Comments

‘Learn French 12′ had a few japanese mistakes: I won’t be re-uploading it.

————-
*TO HAVE JUST DONE SOMETHING
何かをしたところです
= Venir de faire quelque chose
(also) Venir juste de faire quelque chose
(also) Venir tout juste de faire quelque chose

(By adding « juste » or « tout juste » you emphasize the fact that it’s JUST happened. The longer the sentence the more recent the action. The main meaning is the same.)

→ Satoshi has just bought a new car.
聡さんは新しい車を買ったところです。
= Satoshi vient d’acheter une nouvelle voiture.
(or) Satoshi vient juste d’acheter une nouvelle voiture.
(or) Satoshi vient tout juste d’acheter une nouvelle voiture.

*TO BE ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING
何かをするところです
= être sur le point de faire

→ Tony is about to propose to Mia.
トニさんはミアさんにプロポズするところです。
= Tony est sur le point de demander Mia en mariage.

To propose (to someone) / (誰かに) プロポズする
= demander (quelqu’un) en mariage.

Will you marry me ?
=Veux- tu m’épouser ? (familiar)
=Voulez-vous m’épouser ? (formal)
