Hello, dear Workers!
Voici un nouvel exercice d'expression de "vacances"
... Espérons que vous serez nombreux à vous y essayer ...
Je vous en prie ... Osez participer ! N'ayez pas peur de vous tromper, de faire des fautes, ou d'écrire "hors sujet". Les fautes nous sont utiles, puisqu'elles permettent de réfléchir, de faire des corrections et de donner des explications ...
Paradoxalement, faire une faute est la meilleure chose qui puisse NOUS arriver, à vous, comme à moi ! Merci à ceux qui en font ! 
N'ayez pas de scrupules, vous ne serez pas jugés, mais simplement guidés et aidés ...
C'est en pratiquant, encore et souvent, que les progrès viendront ! N'hésitez donc pas à intervenir, pour la correction des expressions de vos co-workers, comme pour l'écriture de votre propre expression si vous le désirez ... (Vous pouvez aussi - et certains ne s'en privent presque pas ...) écrire sur le "mode de la conversation", comme vous "parleriez" !)
Voici le rappel des modalités de la première partie de l'exercice :
1. Je vous demande une EXPRESSION sur le sujet proposé (un sujet unique par exercice) à m’envoyer en mp dès que possible … (=> 130 - 150 mots au maximum.)
2. Le plus tôt possible, une première expression est publiée sur le Forum, et CHACUN est libre de « corriger » UNE FOIS ( en collant le texte et indiquant les erreurs EN BLEU, et en soulignant ce qui vous semble maladroit et que vous voudriez changer, sans donner la « correction » (forme correcte), comme il se doit.) Un seul devoir à la fois sera publié pour corriger…
Les modalités complètes sont accessibles sur le lien suivant :
Lien internet
( Je vous les rappellerai au fur et à mesure de la progression du travail )
Cet exercice sera ... ce que vous en ferez,
ou Correction en ligne le mardi 09 août 2022.
Voici le nouveau sujet !
"Describe the top three wishes of your 'bucket list!' " (130 - 150 mots au maximum.), ("a number of experiences or achievements that a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime.")
May THE FORCE be with You (with all of you! ) Everybody's welcome! Do not hesitate to write!

Hello dear Friends!
We need you once more to help us perfect the EXPRESSIONS...
for whatever suggestions you'll make! EXPRESSION N°1: Please, help us, indicating possible mistakes in blue and underlining what you think is clumsy.
The third wish of my bucket list woud be to live in a house on a large land in the countryside, which would enable me to own cows, hens, fruit trees, a garden and so forth, so that I could bake cakes or make yoghurts with fresh produce from my place.
My second dream would be to go on a trip throughout America with my relatives. I would start with venturing out into Amazonia, of course with a local explorer in order not to take the chance of dealing with any wild animals such as cheetahs or apes, then I would go north onto some Caribbean islands by boat. Finally, I would go to North America and roam up from Mexico to Canada.
To end, my first wholehearted wish would be world peace; that is to say fewer wars, less poverty, less abuse while more love, mutual aid and sharing! (150)

(1) Je ne suis pas sûr que up soit correct ici et j'aimerais bien le voir commenter par Here4U
Juste quelques remarques :
- c'est original de lister le TOP 3 dans ce sens. Mais c'est un peu déroutant car inattendu. Une petite phrase d'introduction pour préparer les esprits aurait été la bienvenue. Ou beaucoup mieux : lister dans l'ordre.
- Le dernier voeu me paraît hors sujet. Il est demandé ce qu'on aimerait accomplir de son vivant (et non pas : ce qu'on aimerait voir accomplir par les autres)

(1) Au départ, j'avais pensé mettre "last but not least", indispensable puisque j'ai bouleversé le classement. Mais comme ce dernier souhait est un peu à part et ne fait pas partie réellement de la bucket list, je le vois plutôt comme une réflexion, une conclusion.

Hello Maxwell
When you list a "top" or a "flop," it's quite rare to do it in ascending order
Starting with the last and ending with the first is more usual and logical

Hello Dears!
Bravo Maxwell !
Tu as eu raison de prendre l'initiative du "vert" ! Now for the order of the list... I must admit that at first, I was quite surprised when I read EXPRESSION N°1 with the countdown... (but is it a countdown?
) I don't think there's a rule concerning which "wish" has to be given first... but I think I would have been clearer (in words) to express the gradation in my dreams. (We'll see what other writers [if any], will do! )EXPRESSION N°2 will be posted tonight.

Let's hope it's refreshing, funny and relaxing! That's what I wish you! EXPRESSION N°2:Please, help us, indicating possible mistakes in blue and underlining what you think is clumsy.
My main wishes would be to keep everything I have.
Firstly: Bringing up my children to the best on my ability is very important. I want to give them a good education and a happy childhood. I hope that they will do well at school and be able to defend themselves in life.
Secondly: Continue doing my job with various tasks. It is an interesting job that I enjoy. I earn enough money to have a comfortable life.
Thirdly: Keep my husband's love. Be still beautiful in his eyes even when I am 80 years old. We support each other. We are a perfect match.
I have no special skills to do everything else.

Hello dears!
Pas plus d'amateurs ...
Voici donc l'EXPRESSION N°3: qui demande votre inspiration ... As you're going to see, there's nothing spectacular about my bucket list...
Making my own mustard is the first wish on my bucket list! I've been trying for weeks to make a mustard as tasty as the one I used to buy at the supermarket. Unfortunately, so far, I have failed...
Finding time to read all the books I've bought is my second wish. I'm especially thinking of Agatha Christie's novels: I'd love to guess who is the murderer at least once...
Last but not least, I wouldn't want to die before I've understood all that I learnt during my childhood without really understanding it. As Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach wrote : "In youth, we learn, in age, we understand". Well, it's time for me to understand...(134W)

Ou beaucoup mieux : lister dans l'ordre. »[Ca se discute : ma logique : 1-2-3 et il est vraie que j'ai été un peu surprise, but we have to be flexible!

(3) Pour moi, il y a une réelle différence entre «take the chance of» et «run the risk of»: (distinction implicitement faite par l’utilisation de «venturing out» qui marque bien la nuance de « risque ».
-«Run the risk of: to be in a situation in which something bad could happen» -facing a cheetah or an ape… is a risk for me!
(Ceci ne veut pas dire que je suis d’un naturel pessimiste, mais simplement que je pars en Amazonie consciente des dangers que je peux y rencontrer … )«What's the difference between taking a chance and taking/ running a risk? Taking chances means assuming everything will work itself out. It is essentially a leap of faith. Inversely, taking calculated risks means doing your due diligence by asking sources you trust for guidance and understanding the gravity of what you are about to do.”

Hello vaiana! Hello dears!
EXPRESSION N°1/ QUESTION FOR TEACHER HERE4U
How come I cannot use "while" in the last sentence of my essay? Please provide your explanation in English, I can no longer stand French on here... it's an English site
I don't really like the way you're "asking for an explanation..."
Here's why! - dans les diverses corrections des exercices, je veux toucher le plus de monde possible. (qu'ils aient "rendu" l'exercice ou non !) Je sais que les termes grammaticaux en anglais sont peu connus des étudiants et encore moins des personnes qui ont quitté les études depuis quelque temps ...
Lors des épreuves orales des concours de recrutement au professorat, au milieu de l'exposé, de l'explication de texte forcément en anglais, il est demandé une explication de points de grammaire en français, pour que ce soit accessible aux étudiants. Les mêmes exigences sont demandées aux "Tuteurs" lors de la formation des professeurs stagiaires.
En fonction de mes objectifs, il me revient donc de choisir la langue dans laquelle je vais essayer de transmettre des informations et explications jugées nécessaires.
- D'autre part, ce site est un site français qui permet l'étude de l'anglais, l'espagnol, l'allemand, le néerlandais, le latin, les mathématiques etc ... le tout diffusé dans le monde entier. Il possède un "English only" Forum: Lien internet
, mais les auteurs et intervenants sont "libres des moyens pédagogiques employés", tant qu'ils respectent les obligations légales et les règles du site.
Alors revenons à : "less abuse while more love,", which looks (and would sound) strange AND WRONG to me! "While" is definitely not the correct link word here, and the whole phrase as it is looks mysterious, if not contradictory... The juxtaposition of "abuse" and "love" makes no sense to me and needs an explanation...
EXPRESSION N°3: I still don't like "For weeks, I have been trying to make a mustard as tasty as the one I used to buy". It's not wrong, but just looks clumsy...

Hello, I would have directly asked someone else if I had known I would be lashed out at
but THANKS anyway 
for the explanation you provided If you want to write in French then do as you please...
As per the historic of this forum, you used to write on here only in English some years ago and I found it more interesting since it enabled a total immersion; it wasn't a reproach, much less an order EXPRESSION N°3: FINAL STAGE
As you're going to see, there's nothing spectacular about my bucket list...

(1) You can't use the passive voice with "to explain" since "to explain somebody something" doesn't exist.
"Before I was taught..." seems okay.

Hello! Here are the final reflexions on your Follow up Work.
EXPRESSION N°1: Follow up
The first wish of my bucket list woud be to live in a house on a large land in the countryside: it would enable me to own cows, hens, fruit trees, a garden and so forth, so that I could bake cakes or make yoghurts with fresh produce from my place.
My second dream would be to go on a trip throughout the Americas with my relatives. I would start with venturing out into Amazonia, of course with a local explorer not to run the risk of dealing with/ facing any wild animals such as cheetahs or apes. Then I would go north onto some Caribbean islands by boat. Finally, I would go to North America and roam from Mexico to Canada.
Actually, my first wholehearted wish would be world peace, that is to say fewer wars, less poverty, less abuse along with more love,B mutual aid and sharing! (150)
Very good Follow up!
EXPRESSION 2: F up W
My main wishes would be to keep everything I have.
Firstly, bringing up my children to the best of my ability is very important to me. I want to give them a good education and a happy childhood. I hope that they will do well at school and be able to take care of/ fend for/ themselves in life.
Secondly, I wish to/ would like to/ keep doing my job and be assigned various tasks. It is an interesting job that I enjoy. I earn enough money to have a comfortable life.
Keeping my husband's love is my third wish. I'd also like to remain beautiful in his eyes even when I am 80 years old. We support each other. I think we are a perfect match.
I don't think I have other special skills that I would want to use. I am also not looking for fame. Actually, remaining in good harmony with everyone around me makes me happy. If I succeed in reconciling work, family and private life well, I will have had a good life. env 150 mots

[ certainly not the "right word"! ] but THANKS anyway for the explanation you provided. If you want to write in French then do as you please... As per the historic(= an adjective!) of this forum, you used to write on here only in English some years ago [grammar has always be explained in French, except for the lessons published on tolearnenglish.com, of course!] and I found it more interesting since it enabled a total immersion; it wasn't a reproach, much less an order.

since ""Before I was taught..." seems okay.
Les deux parties de la phrase ne traitent pas du même problème ! 
Max écrit : "all that I learnt [during my childhood without really understanding it,] has been explained to me.
sujet ///// compléments non indispensables ///// verbe "to explain sth to sb" au passif ! (je ne sais pas si la mise en page sera respectée - J'examine les différents éléments de la phrase en question, mais ça n'a pas marché la première fois !)
"all that I learnt: all that: sujet /////
[during my childhood without really understanding it,] compléments non indispensables /////
has been explained to me.///// verbe "to explain sth to sb" au passif !
Le temps est un present perfect de bilan d'action, et c'est PARFAIT.
Il ne serait pas possible d'utiliser le DOUBLE PASSIF où "to me" deviendrait alors forcément sujet ... La structure du verbe ne serait plus respectée ... mais c'est une autre histoire.
Revoir Lien internetparagraphe 3.
Maintenant, "for weeks" en début de phrase ne me gênait pas trop .... c'était toute la phrase qui me gênait
: "For weeks, I have been trying to make a mustard as tasty as the one I used to buy => "as tasty a mustard as the one..." mais c'est un peu "formal" et précieux ... donc, je préfère la phrase finale ! Bravo ! et à tous les deux ! Réponse : Let's Suggest/19 de vaiana, postée le 10-08-2022 à 22:55:49 (S | E)
Good evening
(As) per the history of this forum
Il ne serait pas possible d'utiliser le DOUBLE PASSIF où "to me" deviendrait alors forcément sujet ... La structure du verbe ne serait plus respectée ... mais c'est une autre histoire.
Yes sorry, I meant "double passive"; I wrote this because Maxwell had written "I've been explained" before thanking me and modifying his sentence.
