Bonjour.
En cette période électorale, voici quelques phrases à traduire.
Niveau :
Correction : vendredi 11 mai 2007.
1- Les femmes britanniques ont obtenu le droit de vote en 1928. Quant aux femmes françaises, il leur a fallu attendre encore presque vingt ans pour jouir de ce privilège, jusque-là réservé aux hommes.
2- Le jour des élections, chaque électeur met son bulletin de vote dans l'urne.
3- Tous les citoyens français âgés de dix-huit ans et plus sont habilités à participer aux élections, qui ont lieu un dimanche. Les bureaux de vote sont généralement installés dans les mairies et les écoles locales.
4- En Grande-Bretagne, le premier ministre est le chef du parti qui a gagné les élections.
En théorie, la reine, qui nomme le premier ministre, pourrait aussi le révoquer. Elle peut aussi dissoudre le parlement, ce qu'elle ne fait jamais.
5- Je me souviens très bien de cette année-là, et même de ce jour-là.
Je suis arrivé aux États-Unis un mardi, jour où les américains votaient.

Hello marie11,
1- British women won the right to vote in 1928. As for French women, they have had to wait nearly more than twenty years for enjoying that up to then men's privilege.
2- On polling day, every voter puts his ballot paper into the ballot box.
3- All French citizens aged eighteen or over are entitled to vote in elections which take place on a Sunday. Polling stations are often set up in town halls or local schools.
4- In Great-Britain, The Prime Minister is the head of the party which has won the election. Theoretically, the Queen who appoints the Prime Minister could dismiss him too. She also has the authority to dissolve the Parliament.( to break it up ? ), what she never does.
5- I remember very well that year and that day as well. I arrived in the United States on a Tuesday, the day when American people were voting.
Thank you marie11

Bonjour.
Voici ma proposition.
1- British women got the vote in 1928. As for French women they had to wait nearly twenty years to enjoy this privilege, until then reserved for men.
2- On the polling day every voter puts their* ballot paper into the ballot box.
3- All French citizens of eighteen or over are entitled to vote in elections, which take place on a Sunday. Polling stations are often set up in town halls and local schools.
4- In Britain**, the Prime Minister is the leader of the party which has won the elections.
Theoretically, the Queen, who appoints the Prime Minister, could also dismiss him.
The Queen can also dissolve Parliament***, which she never does.
5- I remember that year very well and even that day.
I arrived in the United States on a Tuesday, the day when the Americans voted****.
* They / them / their is often used to refer to a singular indefinite person.
This is common after a person, anybody/one, whoever, each, every, either,neither, no. They has a plural verb in this case.
Ex:
If anybody calls, take their name and ask them to call again later.
This singular use of they/them/their is convenient when the person referred to could be either male or female.
** Britain or Great Britain.
*** Parliament (pas d'article)
**** preterit (Il s'agit d'une action révolue)
Je vous remercie de votre participation.
