Languages - September 2006

Hi! Actually, I need two words. I'm French and translate a website (for free; so I'm not asking you to do the job for me) but there are 2 words I can't find as they don't really seem to have proper equivalents. Please, help me, can't find anything on the Internet/ dictionaries/etc.

The first one means a course, but at the end of which you get a "degree" or some sort of recognition (not a university degree, though). Apparently, "formation" is not the proper term. Is it?

The second one is someone who goes to a class to give a lesson. But not necessarily a teacher. he could be a manager who goes to give some advice. I found "intervenor" on my bilingual dictionary, but apparently, it doesn't apply to that at all (it's related to the law).

Also, I can't explain the word on the website as those words will be in a tab (so, max. 6-7 words)

Thanks.

Latin being read left to right rather than right to left wouldn't this translate to "one of many"?

I'm really interested in the different spanish dialects and I'm really interested in the dialect of Equatorial Guinea. So far, I found out that they pronounce the r and rr sound like an l and don't pronounce their final s's. I came across a site that said that they are also yeistas. I assumed it meant the whole yeismo thing. Now I can't figure out if that means the Equatorial guineans pronounce their y's and ll's like an english y sound or if they pronounce it like the argentines and uruguayan which is a zhe sound like in the english measure. Someone please help. Which one would make more sense? It would be greatly appreciated if there were any Equatorial Guineans who could help but anyone who has answer is welcome to post. Please help me.

The Chinese have no alphabet. So how do they manage to use keyboard devices. Much the less, handheld ones. They would need to have a large keyboard to hold all the various charaters, since every word has a different sign. I know that everything on Chinese computer systems is not translated into the Roman alphabet.

I can't find anything on the web to answer this question. Does anyone know?

I am a 33-year-old Hearing person. I am going to school to become a Social Worker and I am taking ASL as a foreign language.

I am thankfully having many of my misconceptions about Deaf Culture shattered and learning a whole lot more than just sign language.

I am appalled at the state of education for Deaf people, attitudes of Non-Deaf people, and many other things I am learning, which I never knew existed. I am personally ashamed that I never knew most of this existed.

If you are Deaf, what are your personal thoughts about Hearing people and their thoughts, attitudes, and misconceptions about Deaf Culture?

They are fragments of a text of mine.

"XXXXX’s article 'Bilingualism, Individual' (see full reference in the end of this summary) is a conceptual one. It is about general understandings related to areas of knowledge that study the phenomenon of bilingualism – to be more specific: the individual bilingualism."

I'd like to know: "in the end of..." or "at the end of..."?

And in:

"XXXXXXX presents some misconceptions most people have when thinking of this issue."

I'd like to know: "when thinking..." or "when they think ..."?

and

"...most people have" or "...the most people have"?


Tnx! ie

Do you understand by this sentence "Application forms for 2007 should be completed and arrive at the XXX headquarters no later than 15 September 2006" that applications sent and received the 15 September will be rejected as they don't respect the deadline?
