Flora: Can you help me? I'm working on this email to Emil and I'm having trouble coming up with the right words in French.
弗罗拉：你能帮帮我吗？我正在给埃米尔发邮件，但我遇到点麻烦，我想不起来正确的法语表达。
Andy: My French isn't much better than yours, but I'll give it a shot.
安迪：我的法语比你强不了多少，但我可以试试。
Flora: Okay, read this sentence for me. What I want to know is if that is a suitable way to say that I'm sick, but that I'm not seriously ill.
弗罗拉：好的，帮我读这句话。我想知道这样表达我生病了是否合适，因为我病得不是很严重。
Andy: Word choice can be tricky, but I think that's the appropriate word, with the right meaning and the right connotations.
安迪：选择措辞是很棘手，但我觉得这句话措辞很恰当，意思和含义都很准确。
Flora: Okay, now read this sentence. It doesn't sound right to me. Is this the right usage of the word “faire”? I really doubt it.
弗罗拉：好吧，现在读这句。我听着感觉不对。“faire”这个词的用法对吗？我很怀疑。
Andy: That's because you're using the wrong form of the verb, I think. Now if only I can think of the correct form. My French is really, really rusty.
安迪：我认为，那是因为你用错了动词的形式。希望我能想出正确的动词形式。我的法语也荒废好久了。
Flora: Now that you've pointed out the problem, I can look it up later. What about this paragraph? The last sentence sounds awkward to me.
弗罗拉：既然你已经指出错误之处，我可以等会再查查。这段话怎么样？总感觉最后一句话很别扭。
Andy: It sounds okay to me, but then again, I'm not a native speaker.
安迪：我觉得还好，不过重申一遍，法语不是我的母语。
Flora: Ugh, this is so frustrating! It's such a production every time I write him an email.
弗罗拉：额，太令人沮丧了！每次给他写邮件都是个大工程。
Andy: Maybe Emil will learn English and your troubles will be over.
安迪：也许埃米尔会学英语，到时候你的问题就解决了。
Flora: Yes and maybe monkeys will fly out of my butt!
弗罗拉：是的，但那要等到猴年马月呀！
