Yes, but the subjunctive form in the third person of "etre" (with ^) is "soit" not "est".

It would be ridiculous to say:

"Je veuille que le subjonctif soit utilisé." unless you said something like:

Bien que je veuille......etc....

So I was right.
Actually, 'je veux que le subjonctif soit utilisé' is the right form. But you can still deny it, after all, I just live in France for the last 19 years.

Well there we go, I was right then. That's what I said originally but then you gave me some grammar lesson.

The French are so proud, they've even restricted the number of English songs that can be played on French radio.

but 'je veux' is not the subjunctive, it's the present, just what I said earlier. The subjunctive form is 'que je soit'.
Like I said, go back to your school books to learn French.

Ce fil? Que ce que ca ve dire? C'est ca le probleme avec google. C'est un programme, donc il n'est pas sans faille.
Its funny Firewire, you probably googled thread, and it translated it fil. Which in french only means thread as in sewing kit thread.

Actually If I was you, I wouldn't make comments about France because Lithuania is not exactly a role model and a big country.
So unless you find something actually not pointless, you can talk.

Yes but etre (with ^) is in the subjunctive in that sentence not vouloir!

Je veux que le subjonctif soit utilisé.

You only use subjunctive after the "que" so it would be ridiculuos to use the subjunctive form of vouloir here unless you said something like:

Bien que je veuille que le subjonctif soit utilisé.

I think we are saying the same thing but not in the same way. Anyway, I do get my point and I understand myself, sorry if you can't get it.

Well that was my point in this first place. Why bring the subjunctive form of 'vouloir' into it?

Anyway, this is just getting stupid now.

Finalement! Un lieu où je peut parler en français :]

Cava, mes amis? j'ai écrit réccement que j'étais partir TiBB, mais maintenant j'ai décidé c'etait un peu stupide et personne ne remarquera les deux sens. Aussi, quelquefois quand je visite TiBB, je pourrais vouloir parler quelque chose :P.

Donc, je suis une "membre inactif", peut-etre?

that's such terrible french, i'll edit it later

Coucou Sia,

ça fait plaisir de te voir ! Tu m'as manqué, c'était un peu triste sans toi, mais je suis pas venu souvent ici.

There's a few mistakes in your post babe but they aren't big, I'll let you find them alone.

I find most things French vastly overated, I hate snobbery which France seems to monopolise the world at.
Its acountry known for its sexist views that woman are objects, yet still claims to be a romantic paradise..LMAO

I think it must have been a typo, the country is a romantic parasite more like, and I hate it, and everything it stands for.

I see what you're saying, the fact that France seems to be arrogant.
As for the sexist views, I disagree, we had a woman on the 2nd round at the Presidential elections, she's been supported by 47% of the population, that's not nothing !

Have you ever been in France ? If not, I don't know how you can have such a harsh opinion on it without being in France.
I don't like my country that much, but not for these reasons, so I can understand you.

Yes, I've been to France,, and its the country its views and values I dislike, not its people.
It is a general view, and you will find differing examples that contradict what I have experienced, such as your view on France not being sexist.
What I will say is..more than 47% voted for Barrack Obama and he actually won his election, on this basis then can we now say that America has rid itself of extreme rascist groups?

I don't dislike French people in general and definately not merely for being French (thats the dfinition of rascist..for the person who reffered me to that) indeed I had French exchange students for 14 consecutive summers, enough time I'd say to form an oppinion of the country and I'd say more than enough time to prove I'm no rascist.
But I appreciate your asking and giving your differnet oppinion Remy, rather than taking the real narrow minded view like the other.

Good to know you don't dislike the people.
Of course there are sexists people over there, but the fact a woman made it this far for the first time in French history changed a lot of things. Same thing for Obama: it doesn't mean there are no longer racist groups.

I thought you were one of these people who judges without knowing but since you had a lot of experience with it, then I just have to respect.
Like I said, I don't like my country that much, it's not where I want to work, to live and to raise my children then I can fully understand what you're saying.

It's spelled "racist". And, I didn't call you a racist. I said you had posted a racist view. And, I stand by it.

Here are the mistakes:
'que je partais de TIBB'
'soins' means 'health care and DO NOT use Google translation, you have dozens of translators on the Internet, but not that one !
'je peux parler de quelque chose'
'sans que les gens me disent'
'Tu es partie'.

Merci pour le compliment ! Moi aussi je suis fatigué car j'ai bu et fumé aussi, un peu trop. Bisous !
