Hey guys, I need something translated from English to French, I would rather not use a translator because generally they are wrong and use bad grammar. So if there is someone who is french, or speaks french here, that would be awesome :)

My birthday is on the first of November. Normally I get quite a lot of money but not many presents. On the morning of my birthday, I get up really early and open my presents quickly. After I have opened my presents, me and my friends eat the “Full-English” breakfast that my mum made.

When I was younger, for my birthday, I used to go to a play park, called Fun Kingdom with some friends from school in Southampton, it was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it, and we used to go to McDonalds after. I used to get a lot more presents than I do now.

For my next Birthday, I hope to have a driving lesson, with a few friends, I really like driving so I think it will be a lot of fun. The driving lesson is in Bournemouth and is about 1 hour away. Hopefully after I can have a sleepover and we can play on the Xbox 360 all night.

Cheers :)

What grade is this?
Looks like skills from grade 10 or 11 french would be needed here..

is this for a school assignment?? lol, if it is, then read it to yourself out loud. it sounds wrong. grammar, and keep your sentences of a more varying length. :]

I think you need someone with a proper knowledge of English to get rid of all your grammar fail first. It's not worth translating it to another language if your English is so wrong to begin with.
Read: It sounds like a 5 year old wrote it, a crazy, comma loving 5 year old.

Google translate says this:

Mon anniversaire est le premier de Novembre. Normalement, je reçois beaucoup d'argent, mais pas beaucoup de cadeaux. Le matin de mon anniversaire, je me lève très tôt et ouvrir mes cadeaux rapidement. Après j'ai ouvert mes cadeaux, mes amis et moi manger le "Full-anglais" petit-déjeuner que ma mère fait.

Quand j'étais plus jeune, pour mon anniversaire, j'ai l'habitude d'aller à un parc de jeux, appelé Fun-Uni avec des amis de l'école à Southampton, il a été très amusant et ça m'a vraiment plu, et nous avons utilisé pour aller au McDonald's après. J'avais l'habitude de se présente beaucoup plus que je fais maintenant.

Pour mon prochain anniversaire, je l'espère, d'avoir une leçon de conduite, avec quelques amis, j'aime bien conduire donc je pense que ce sera beaucoup d'amusement. La leçon de conduite est à Bournemouth et à environ 1 heure. Espérons que, après je peux avoir une soirée pyjama et on peut jouer sur la Xbox 360 toute la nuit.

Should be close enough, atleast the finnish => swedish translator was always good enough for my assignments.

I'm sorry but this is retarded.

Dude if you're in a low level language class the only things you can be expected to translate are simple sentences. It's not that his english is bad, it's that he needed to write sentences he could reasonably expect to translate into french.

You can't just dive in to translating shakespeare in your first year.

I am awful at french, so if I came out with a thousand word perfect essay, it would look suspicicous

What's stopping you from doing what you're expected to do and doing it yourself? You're not going to learn anything if you have someone else do it for you (unless I'm misunderstanding the purpose of this assignment).

EDIT: Or what nielsie said.

I speak french. I fixed the errors in the google translated version that GoF posted.

By the way I'm in french immersion, so my french isn't perfect. And I didn't spend too much time on it, so expect to have a few errors still in there.

Without a dictionary dude. You're supposed to be practicing stuff you've learned, maybe learn a few new things, not look up every single word.

Although I suppose by asking for someone to do it for him it kind of defeats the entire purpose of the assignment haha.

I think your this profile is a part of the assignment or just need to impress someone speaking French, just kidding. You may try your profile into French with the help of the Google translation which would give perfect translation into French.
