    Hello Friends,

    C'est parti pour Let's suggest 4: Merci d' indiquer les erreurs éventuelles en bleu et de souligner les maladresses.
    EXPRESSION N° 1:

    I believe most of us don't like quarrelling with friends. We prefer having fun with friends; we generally choose friends who share many things with us. Can we make friends with people who have an opposite point of view from ours on many subjects and tend to argue every time one of these subjects comes up? I doubt it very much.
    Except for those few people who enjoy having a row to show their strength (or what they believe to be a strength).
    However, when two people know that nothing could break their friendship, they can afford to have a dispute when they disagree: they know they'll respect each other, each one will listen to the other one's point of view and each one will learn from the other one.
    Sometimes, arguing may be much better than not saying what one thinks, letting a situation fester. 149w

    The Force is with you!

    Hello
    As for me, I don't think there's anything to correct
    We can say: "we prefer to +V" or "we prefer + Ving", even if "prefer to+V" is used more frequently

    Dear here4u and author of the text
    This correction corresponds to : how I understand the text; and the mistakes. This is an exercise for me. It is not necessarily accurate .

    sorry, sometimes I made mistakes and exaggerated by replacing words with their synonyms

    we are waiting for Here4u's correction

    I believe most of us don't like quarrelling with friends. We prefer having or TO HAVE : avec prefer L’infinitif est plus courant OK fun with friends; we generally= usually synonyme choose friends who share many things with us. Can we make friends with people who have an opposite point of view (from) (Oui c’est from( d’après Cambridge dictionary).


    ours on many subjects and tend to argue every time one of these subjects (comes up?= se présenter) TACKLE = aborder I doubt( it ) THAT very much.

    Except for those few people who enjoy having a row WITH SOMEONE ( je pense qu’on doit ajouter un complément) to show their strength (or what they believe to be a strength).
    However, when two people know that nothing could break their friendship, they can afford to have a dispute when they disagree: they know they'll respect each other, each one will listen to( the other one's point of view) OK (je doutais de mettre one et écrire to the other ‘s point of view, cela reviens au même and each one will learn from the other one.

    Sometimes, arguing may be much better than not saying what one thinks, letting a situation (fester=s’envenimer pour une plaie mais se dit aussi d’une situation donc Ok)
    synonyme generally = usually
    come up = tackle (plus précis
    it remplacé par that
    having a row with someone (peut être complément pas obligatoire)

    Hello!

    EXPRESSION N° 1: ready for explanations.

    I believe most of us don't like quarrelling with friends. We prefer having or TO HAVE fun with friends; we generally/ usually choose friends who share many things with us. Can we make friends with people who have an opposite point of view from ours on many subjects and tend to argue every time one of these subjects comes up/ is tackled I doubt it/that very much.

    Except for those few people who enjoy having a row with others to show their strength (or what they believe to be a strength).(This isn't a sentence!)
    However, when two people know that nothing could break their friendship, they can afford to have a dispute when they disagree: they know they'll respect each other, each one will listen to the other one's point of view and each one will learn from the other one.

    Sometimes, arguing may be much better than not saying what one thinks, letting a situation fester/ worsen.

    EXPRESSION N°2:

    To want to quarrel with a friend is a strange idea. It is very better to want to laugh with your friends. Why wanting to quarrel with friends ? Perhaps because the quarrel cannot be grave… You know that a friend can play opposite you. You say something, and your friend, because he knows you will try to force you change your ideas about a subject, but in the end, you will always be friends, even if you’re not agree… 80 A friend wants the better for you, so you can accept critics from him, because you know that when he’ll leave, you’ll be friends always and forget about the rude words he has pronounced. It’s like a sort of training… Because of this friend, you have a sort of training and with this help, you may change of opinion. But I prefer a lot to have fun with my friend. 152 words.

    Allez-y ! Mettez les erreurs en bleu et soulignez les maladresses ...

    hello
    Pour Taiji : le sujet de la phrase est : one of these subjects. donc le verbe ne peut pas être tackle, mais plutôt is tackled. Comes up est bon : un sujet est soulevé.
    Il n'est pas obligatoire de compléter après : to have a row.
    I doubt it est aussi bon.

    Hello!
    Here's my second try: I'll try and correct what was wrong:

    EXPRESSION N° 1: ready for explanations.

    I believe most of us don't like quarrelling with friends. We prefer having fun with friends; we generally/usually choose friends who have a lot in common with us. Can we make friends with people who have an opposite point of view from ours on many subjects and tend to argue every time one of these subjects comes up/is tackled? I doubt it/that very much.

    I guess those few people who enjoy having a row with others to show their strength (or what they believe to be a strength) would disagree...
    However, when two people know that nothing could break their friendship, they probably don't refrain from having a dispute when they disagree: they know they'll respect each other, each one will listen to the other one's point of view and each one will learn from the other one.

    Hum hum ... Pourquoi ce retour en arrière ?

    Là, tu étais censé indiquer les fautes de l'expression N°2 ! (ce que tu as déjà fait !)
    (Il ne faut pas mélanger deux expressions différentes ... ) Nous en sommes à l’EXPRESSION N°2 !

    Hello Here4U
    Oui, j'ai bien signalé les fautes de l'expression 2 et j'attends sagement ton feu vert pour écrire des propositions de correction.
    En revanche, j'ai écrit en vert une proposition de correction pour l'expression 1 suite à la liste de fautes/maladresses que tu as signalées sur l'expression 1 le 19/12 (d'habitude, tu indiques ces fautes au moment où tu donnes le go pour les corrections, c'est-à-dire en l'occurrence dans ton post du 18/12)
    => du coup, je rattrape ce retard
    Désolé aussi mais je travaille en fonction de mes disponibilités, elles sont de plus en plus limitées...

    Hello!
    Time has come!

    EXPRESSION N°2:

    Wishing to quarrel with a friend is a strange idea. It is much better to want to laugh with your friends. Why would you want to quarrel with your friends? Perhaps because the quarrel is about something unimportant… You know that a friend can play opposite you. You say something, and your friend says the opposite, because he knows you will try to force him to change his ideas about a subject... But in the end, you will always be friends, even if you don't agree on everything… A friend wants the best for you, so you can accept critics from him, because you know that when he leaves, you’ll always be friends and forget about the rude words he has pronounced. It’s like a sort of training… Thanks to this friend, you have a sort of training and with this help, you may change opinions. But I prefer a lot to have fun with my friend. 152 words.

    EXPRESSION N°3: (indiquer les erreurs en bleu et souligner les maladresses - pendant 24h !- )

    To quarrel with friends is not really quarrel… It’s like your pretending to quarrel, but do it for fun. Your friend knows that it’s not for real and it can be a way of test how you may go far and how you can look hard. I remember I was used to quarrel with my sisters when I was young. It was very violent sometime but deep inside, we knew for sure that we will still be like peas in a pod for ever. But it can be riskey. Young people don’t know always where (or when) to stop and in the fire of the action, you may insist and refuse to stop where it will be time, and go too far… In that, it’s dangerous… You must never play with the friendship. 137 words

    Je n'aime pas encore trop : "choose friends who have a lot of ideas and opinions in common." Ceci n'est pas clair (pour moi ! ) , et je transformerais bien cette phrase pour exprimer qu'en général (mais est-ce vrai ?), nous choisissons des amis qui ont à peu près les mêmes idées que nous ...
    Pour le reste, l'EXPRESSION N° 1 est Merci, ô, correcteurs !

    Pas de fautes dans les EXPRESSIONS N° 2 et 3. Merci, Max!

    Hello!

    L'un d'entre vous s'est fait rattraper par la date ... mais comme je n'aime pas laisser un travail fait consciencieusement sans corrections, quelqu'un veut-il aider ? (Vous pouvez le faire en vert tout de suite ! )

    EXPRESSION N° 4: "last minute..."

    quarreling with friends, for me it's a grain of salt that we add to our friendship because a friendship without quarrel is like a tree without fruit and in addition this friendship will be a routine, and it will not last long time. This is why the friendship is sometimes calm and sometimes a little disturbed and there we test the relationship of our friends to us if they are solid or not.
    we test them that we need money or an ade for example lend us housing to shelter us or to paint our house, of course we test them for serious work and not easy things because there we discover the real ones friends, so knows that quarrels are not a serious thing on the contrary it is normal to have a long-lasting friendship 138 words


    Dans tous les cas, je mettrai une "correction" demain dans la journée ! Merci à vous tous ...

    Hello! FINISHED

    EXPRESSION 1
    lol Je n'ai fait que recopier ce que tu avais écrit en vert et que je croyais être ta correction
    we generally choose like-minded friends.

    J'ai quand même une question sur can/can't afford to car je n'ai pas très bien compris ton point :

    veux-tu dire qu'on doit réserver cette expression uniquement au domaine financier ?????

    Pourtant, les exemples dans d'autres domaines ne manquent pas :

    We can't afford to make any mistakes at this stage in the project.

In addition this friendship would be routine, and it wouldn't last long. This is why friendship is sometimes calm and sometimes a little rough.

    Hello, dears!

    EXPRESSION 1
    lol Je n'ai fait que recopier ce que tu avais écrit en vert et que je croyais être ta correction
    (Alors, à ce point, j'aimerais que tu aies compris que JE NE DONNE PAS DE CORRECTIONS ! Je ne fais que des SUGGESTIONS ! Il y a des centaines de façons de dire les choses, certaines sont "académiques", d'autres "correctes", certaines sont "admissibles", certaines sont fausses, mais employées couramment. On n'y peut (presque) rien, que de le constater ... et être triste ... (ou s'en amuser! Après tout c'est ce que certains "croivent"! ) Tout se dit ! (en français aussi, d'ailleurs ...) même si tout ne devrait pas se dire ... Ici, dans cet exercice, je vous demande, sans vous censurer, de trouver des moyens acceptables sur le plan linguistique de dire ce que vous voulez dire. Parfois, (ou souvent,) je ne le dirais pas comme certains le disent, mais ce n'est pas grave ... L'essentiel est de dire, de communiquer et tant pis si parfois on fronce un peu les sourcils ...

    "we generally choose like-minded friends." est possible !

    J'ai quand même une question sur can/can't afford to car je n'ai pas très bien compris ton point :

    veux-tu dire qu'on doit réserver cette expression uniquement au domaine financier ?????
    OUI! Explicitement, ou implicitement ... (et c'est là que tu ne me suis pas, je suppose ...) on analyse, grâce à un contexte les possibilités ou impossibilités pécuniaires d'accomplir une action, ou même encore, les conséquences que l'action aurait ...
    Là, tu me donnes des phrases hors contexte que moi, j'interprète en pensant aux conséquences financières, si tu me parles de "afford" ! C'est mon droit !

    Pourtant, les exemples dans d'autres domaines ne manquent pas :

    He can't afford to let her speak badly of him. (certes ... mais nous n'avons pas de contexte !)
    Lien internet

    We can't afford to make any mistakes at this stage in the project. (et moi je comprends ... because it would be prejudicial for his future career in the firm...)
    Voilà! Donc, dis ce que tu veux, écris ce que tu veux ... mais sois prêt à t'expliquer (à l'oral) et à laisser tomber, à l'écrit et risquer d'être incompris ... Frustrant, non ? (Expliquer à l'écrit est lassant et très difficile !)
    Food for thought:

    "I can't afford to do something." = "I don't have the means to do something." The means could be money or time, or that doing so would pose a risk to one's professional advancement/reputation or a relationship, etc. (In the last two cases, we could also say "I dont dare do it.")
