Hello dear Workers,

Voici votre exercice suivant. Comme nous entrons en période de vacances, je l'ai voulu court ... J'espère que vous serez nombreux à le faire ...
Mon élève a fait de gros efforts, mais il a tout de même oublié 15 fautes (dont certaines sont répétées ...) Nous avons vraiment besoin de votre aide pour que cet exercice soit correct ! - la correction sera en ligne le Dimanche 11 juillet - )

Please, Help my poor Student! He needs you... This text contains 15 mistakes.(to be corrected in CAPITAL LETTERS, )
«I like paying taxes. It’s great to pay taxes.»
The Swedish are known for having high standards of living which their taxes help to pay.

(1)(3) REVOIR AVEC TRES GRAND SOIN LA LECON SUR LES PAYS ET NATIONALITES: Lien internet

En l’espèce, le pays : 0 Sweden – sans article - // l’adjectif : Swedish+ nom // la population : 0 Swedes/ the Swedes// a Swede. Bien respecter les majuscules obligatoires. // Mon élève avait tout mélangé et certains (trop nombreux) ont été entraînés par ses errances.
(2) To pay for something: ici la particule adverbiale reprise est obligatoirement rejetée en fin de phrase.
(4) La construction laissée par mon élève était très incorrecte : il fallait corriger en : «QUITE A LARGE PROPORTION»
(5) "whatnot" ici employé comme nom, est le plus souvent indénombrable : Lien internet

Lien internet

* Voici une faute que je n'avais pas prévue ... mais que vous avez voulu corriger en force ! "Un piège" involontaire, donc, en quelque sorte ! "how much taxes I pay," a entraîné vos réactions ... et corrections... Juxtaposer much et taxes vous a choqués ! mais comme me l'a ensuite écrit l'un d'entre vous : " c'est combien en taxes et non : combien de taxes ! J'aurais pu l'éviter " ... autrement dit : "what amount" considéré comme une masse ... un indénombrable .... et non pas l'impôt sur les salaires, celui sur les propriétés, celui sur le tabac ... un de plus, et encore un autre ... etc.
(6) L’expression « one of the + nom » est forcément suivie d’un pluriel.
(7) Attention à la confusion : "UNDERLYING" et "UNDERLAYING": underlying : to underlie à la forme en –ing : Lien internet

A ne pas mélanger avec : Lien internet
, même problème que la confusion entre «to lie, I lay, lain» et «to lay, I laid, laid».
(8) "was really founded on (8) this idea": "a well-funded (8’)..." : le premier verbe est TO FOUND (verbe régulier)= fonder. (à ne pas confondre avec «to find, I found, found» : trouver ; mon élève n’avait pas fait l’erreur du (8’) mais vous l’avez cependant corrigée … Il s’agissait du verbe «to fund» (régulier) : financer. TROIS verbes, donc, dont vous devez vous méfier …
(9) one and a half year each : chacun => a three years’parental leave; both= les deux à la fois, ne convenait pas ici.
(10) Ne pas confondre : "assurances": Lien internet
ET "insurances": Lien internet

(11) To succeed IN => to be successful in building
(12) challenges coming up: to appear : Lien internet

(13) Le BUT s’exprime grâce à l’infinitif : "to qualify", ou plus fort par «SO AS TO/ IN ORDER TO qualify.» Ici, "In order to qualify". Ce que mon élève avait mis exprimait une CAUSE : «for qualifying» (punished for cheating= because he had cheated.)
(14) how much these people are entitled to: encore une fois, particule adverbiale obligatoirement rejetée en fin de phrase.
(15) trends make it a lot: Lien internet
J’avais oublié d’enlever le «it», si bien que mon élève est réputé avoir corrigé la faute qu’il allait faire !


Voilà ! Bravo à vous pour votre travail et d'avoir participé !

J'ai donc, encore une fois, besoin de trois volontaires pour le travail de traduction du Follow up Work! Je les remercie d'avance et rappelle que ce travail n'est pas urgent, mais que la "déclaration de volontariat" l'est ! Je remercie d'avance les volontaires !

And then, we’ve been on parental leave, both my wife and I, about one and a half year each, in total. We have our kids at daycare, full time. That costs us about $180 a month. We don’t have to worry about getting sick, we don’t have to worry about insurances, our kids are much calmer with this system because they see that we, as parents, are calm, that we have this safety net behind us if anything happens to us. Of course I have friends who are not fans of paying taxes.»

La philosophie sous-jacente de l'Etat-providence en Suède fut vraiment fondée sur cette idée : une ressource bien financée va être utilisée par tous les membres de la population.
"Qu'ai-je pour en échange de mes impôts ? Eh bien, j'ai plusieurs diplômes universitaires, fait six années d'étude, et ce fut gratuit. Pas de frais de scolarité. Et puis, nous avons été en congé parental, ma femme et moi, pendant un an et demi chacun en tout. Nos enfants sont à la crèche à plein temps. Cela nous coûte environ 180 dollars par mois. Nous n'avons pas à nous inquiéter pour la maladie, ni pour les assurances, nos enfants sont beaucoup plus calmes avec ce système car ils voient que nous, parents, le sommes, et que nous avons ce filet de sécurité en dessous de nous si quelque chose nous arrive. Evidemment, j'ai des amis qui n'aiment pas trop payer des impôts."
Très bien, Maxwell ! Texte parfaitement compris.
OK avec ton filet de sécurité que tu peux mettre où tu veux ... Il est vrai que l'on pense surtout à empêcher une chute ... Pourquoi ne pas le mettre "autour" de nous pour parer à toute éventualité ?


«Sweden has been quite successful in building up a welfare state and using tax money, but the downside is that they already have this recipe for success and they’re trying to use it with new challenges coming up with globalisation, climate change, etc. One group that’s probably going to be quite affected by the future challenges are migrants who are not yet, or will never be, within the Swedish system. In order to qualify for the services of the welfare state, you need a personal identification number and this is getting increasingly difficult to obtain. I think there’s quite a lot of debate how much these people are entitled to and whether they should be seen as «one of us» or «one of them». There’s quite a lot of political discussion on this at the moment: everything from digitalisation, to migration, to urbanisation; these kinds of huge trends make it a lot harder to plan for the decades ahead. But in general, there’s a high level of trust in the Swedish society so they trust that the public sector will do good things, long term, with our money.»

La Suède a franchement bien réussi à mettre en place un état providence et à utiliser (en utilisant) l'argent des impôts, mais l'inconvénient est qu'elle a déjà la recette du succès et qu'elle essaie de l'utiliser pour faire face aux nouveaux défis qui se présentent avec la mondialisation, le changement climatique, etc. Un groupe qui sera probablement très affecté par les défis futurs est celui des migrants qui ne sont pas encore ou ne seront jamais dans le système suédois. Pour bénéficier des services de l'état providence, il faut un numéro d'identification personnel, qui est de plus en plus difficile à obtenir. Je pense qu'il y a beaucoup de débats sur le montant auquel ces personnes ont droit et sur la question de savoir si elles doivent être considérées comme " l'une des nôtres de nous/ d'entre nous " ou "l'une des leurs d'eux * ". Il y a beaucoup de discussions politiques à ce sujet en ce moment : tout va de la numérisation à la migration en passant par l'urbanisation ; ce genre de grandes tendances rend beaucoup plus difficile la planification pour les décennies à venir. Mais en général il y a un haut niveau de confiance dans la société suédoise aussi nous croyons qu'à long terme le secteur public fera de bonnes choses avec notre argent.
Bravo magie, et encore un grand !
* Le possessif "des nôtres", pouvait marcher, à la rigueur ... mais pas pour "eux" ... Tu insistes trop sur la possession, l'appartenance à un groupe ... alors que dans le texte, les pronoms employés sont personnels "seulement" ...

Un ENORME merci à nos volontaires !

(*) je ne sais pas si j'ai eu raison mais je préfère l'image du filet de sécurité SOUS le voltigeur
