Hey,

In this land of intelligence there must be a french speaker about!

I am asking because I need to compose a brief text (1/2 a page) on sports in french, incorporating as many of the following as possible: passive, pluperfect, perfect, imperfect and future tenses. The text needs to talk about sports I have done and also what I wish to do - I want it to be ace so I was wondering if there was someone out there with an IM program who would work on it with me?!

Replies soon!

Isn't Sony owned by the French now? If so, I have a francophone you could borrow.
