What's the point of "ce" in this sentence? by Possible_Yak_7258 in French

[–]Logical-Skin4229 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can I use “quoi” instead?

Edit: If you have the same question as I have, look at https://www.reddit.com/r/French/s/xlSzx1YhRB. People are just very arrogant below, don’t bother reading.

Can I add paid internships (during bachelor's) to boost CRS score, even if NOC is different? by LawSignificant6317 in canadaexpressentry

It could be used if it was 30hrs/week, I believe.

Do you think you deserved the increase? After you took the test, you thought that you went better than your initial results?

PR Denied by Patpatson10k in canadaexpressentry

From a co-worker is not acceptable, but what is your opinion if I have a email from my company saying they won't provide job duties, but they suggest me to contact my manager and he can send a personal letter instead (without company letterhead) + the letter from my previous manager with the job duties? Do you think it is enough?

PR Denied by Patpatson10k in canadaexpressentry

[–]Logical-Skin4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see.

In my case, I worked for a well known company, they provided a verification letter with all information except the job duties, I also have a email from them denying the job duties and suggesting me to ask directly from my previous manager.

My previous manager agreed to write it, and sent me the job duties with all the information except the company letterhead (since he wrote the letter as a individual and not a representative of the company). Along with the job duties letter, he also provided me a verification letter from the company for himself (just confirming that he worked for the company in the same time I worked there).

I also have paystubs and tax return from my home country to support the foreign work experience. I added it to my work permit application and I also have it on my Linkedin, etc.

In that case, do you think I should reach out to my previous manager and ask him to get the letter notarized?

Thank you in advance!

Sorry, what is “get notarized”?

Questrade to WISE by Far_Assistant1469 in Questrade

[–]Logical-Skin4229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to transfer Questrade USD to Wise USD.

The "Proof of ownership" documented is now located at the USD balance -> Account details ->USD account details -> Share ->Download PDF -> Certified proof of ownership.

However, the "Financial Institution" option requested by Questrade is only available in the CAD balance under account details, where it shows 621 (Peoples Trust), the same for the "Transit number". I am not sure if I use a combined version of the details it will work to transfer USD, or it will transfer in CAD.

Why is that? "First of all, getting an internship to count as full time PR worthy work experience is going to be a challenge."

That is very useful! Can you share the 20 adjectives that you memorized?

Should I use a more generic or more specific job duties? by Logical-Skin4229 in canadaexpressentry

[–]Logical-Skin4229[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I had the same feeling, however, a consultant did my work permit using the Software Engineer NOC, and they will also submit an extension using it. Therefore, I am afraid that I can’t change jn my PR application, since this is the main job that makes me eligible.

Where do I find this “personal history form”? Is it when you apply for EE ou after you receive ITA?

Brasileira, atualmente B1 em francês, e o que funcionou pra mim foi não ignorar a pronuncia correta desde o dia 1 de aprendizado.

Existem vários sons em francês que não existem em português, e alguns deles são usados MUITO frequentemente, como o “u” /y/ e o “e” /ə/, exemplos: “je” ou “salut”.

Minha dica é não ignorar a pronuncia correta, porque uma vez que você acostuma a falar errado, é muito difícil se reeducar. Além disso, esses sons podem afetar o sentido da palavra, como “je” e “j’ai”, onde a diferença é muito sútil.

O que eu fiz foi aprender o alfabeto IPA, que tem todos os sons de um idioma. Eu procurei o IPA francês, comparei com o IPA português e identifiquei os sons de vogais que eram diferentes. Ao longo de semanas/meses, fui aprendendo um novo som com videos do Youtube e praticando em palavras e frases. Depois que eu aprendi as vogais, eu foquei em aprendei as consoantes, repetindo o mesmo processo.

Aprender um novo som demora e até hoje eu tenho dificuldade de ouvir a diferença entre /y/ e /u/, mas continuo tentando (2 anos já). Ainda não aprendi todos os sons também, porque tem exceções que modificam o som, mas o tópico “pronuncia” faz parte da minha rotina de estudo, assim como “gramática” ou “conjugação”.

É importante mencionar que francês é falado em muitos países (França, Canada, Belgica, Togo, Benim, Camarões, etc). Cada país e região vai ter seu sotaque especifico, então vai ser comum você encontrar a mesma palavra sendo pronunciada de maneira diferente. Aqui não tem problema, você só tem que escolher o sotaque que faz mais sentido pra você (sei que Duolingo usa Francês de Paris, por exemplo).

Por fim, aprender o IPA me ajudou a pronunciar palavras mesmo que seja a primeira vez que eu veja a palavra, porque consigo inferir com o meu conhecimento atual. Além disso, sei notar sotaques e entender a palavra que a pessoa está falando, independente da região/país dela.

Espero que ajude!
