En Francais, s'il te plait...

[mcgillianaire]

Mes Amis! I need some help with forming French Phrases which I can use on my job so that I don't sound like an idiot. :) Any feedback would be grr888888ly appreciated!


1. Oh sorry, I don't speak French very well. (My name is and) I am a student @ McGill University, calling on behalf of Alma Mater McGill.

2. Since I cannot speak French very well I'll get someone else to call you back who speaks it fluently.

3. Sorry for the inconvenience and have a good evening.

4. Is there a different number I could reach him/her @ instead?

Also, why do people say Bonjour here @ the end of a convo when it's 8 @ night?? I'm also confused about how and when to use Bonsoir as opposed to Boinsoiree. (Sorry, couldn't be bothered to put in all the accents, so y'all know what I'm talkin' about).

Once again, many thanks for the help!! :D

2.parce que je ne peu pas parler le francais bien, je vais trouver une autre personne qui parle francais couramment.

3.pardonez-moi pour l'enconvenient, bonne soiree.

4.est-ce qu'il y a un autre numero pour... (name)?

hope that helps... feel free to have someone else correct it but that should do the trick, and get the message across anyway. well my french was good enough for moroccans but i dont know bout quebecois... good luck. oh yeah and sorry for the lack of accents... but its late and i didnt feel like switching to french keyboard.

Aww, thanks so much!! :) I'm sure it's a lot better than anything I would've put together so Quebecois or not, they'll get the message.

1. pardonez-moi, je ne parle pas très bien le francais. Je m'appelle... et je suis un etudiant a de l'universite Mcgill. Je vous appelle à propos au nom d'alma mater mcgill.

2.Parce que je ne peu pas parler le francais bien parle pas très bien français, je vais trouver une autre personne qui le parle francais couramment.

3.pardonez-moi pour l'enconvenient de vous avoir dérangé, bonne soiree.

4.est-ce qu'il y a un autre numéro pour ou je peux rejoindre ... (name)?

Also, the 'ou' in the fourth sentence would take an accent, but I can't find it on this keyboard.
Hope I helped.
