Hello!
I wrote an English text about"kittens". Would you help me for marking, please? I purpose to cut it in four equal parts, in order to help you, and for a better work together. I always answer the forum and give tit for tat until my work is said to be perfect
.I know how much time is needed for marking! Here is it. Thanks for your great help! Sorry, I’m afraid I’ve made some mistakes, but I can’t see them...
If you don’t mind, just work on the first part please, then, when it is really perfect, we’ll work on the second part, and so on, until the end:
Kittens are the babbies of a she-cat and lots of he-cats. Kittens can’t see neither hear, completely death and blind,until they are tend ay old. So, they move by crawling to their mother’s odour to be fed. Each of them choose a breath, and the first arrived, the first served, untill the end of their weanings. They already meow and purr before opening their eyes, and hearing the noises around them ! Of course, they completely depend on their mother till they are one month old. They had drunk only milk, but begin to taste their mother’s meal.
As they get very sharped teeth and claws, their mother suffer while feeding her kittens. /////The end of the first part.
From now, they are beginning to do as their mother does, litle by litle, their mother teaches them how to become independant and don’t want them to be feed at her teats, so their mother pushes them away and yowls or gives some swipes of the claws to her babies till the two month old. Untill they are three-month old, kittens have to be taught a lot about their world, from their mother, from their brothers and sisters, and every beeing around them. This is the main time for their socialisation. They will be taught how not to bite, and how they have to control their claws ! Why all the cats have not the same colour for their furr ? Because their mother needs to have lots of sexe to be pregnant, and their partners tomcats turn around the females… when they are receptive because they are in heat.///// The end of the second part.
Kittens are not toys. Their needs must be satisfied and they are very sensitive. Adoption is for all life long, and people should know it is a commitment of any moments in the life of both of them. We musn’t give up an animal, because we have got lots of problems in our life, because our pet is sick and that costs a lot of money, or because it’s time to go on holiday. The law asks us not to adopt an animal which is less than two months old… We have no right to purpose to the other people a so young animal, which needs his/her mother till he/she gets at least three months old./////The end of the third part.
My she-kitten arrived at five and a half weeks old at home, but had lost her mother when she was only three weeks old ! She had been very agressive towards myself for five years : my doctor, my friends, my sisters told me I had to give up her. I 've never done that !!! My she-cat was in my life, and I had to learn so much about her behaviour. And naturally, I did ! I never regreted to keep her near me, although she bit me and violently scratched me because she could neither hold hersef quiet nor her outpouring feelings and her anger towards the noisy home in which we were living in! Since we have moved, my cat who is now fourteen years old, is quieter, provided I 've also known how to read all her feelings… from her body language!/////The end of the fourth part.

Hello!
Donc, jouons le "jeu" de la correction positive en ne fournissant pas la solution escomptée, mais en signalant la faute !
Merci Here4u de venir à mon secours !
Comme pour tes forums, je mets tes indications de fautes en majuscules, (je ne crie pas pour autant), ce qui te facilitera, mais aussi à moi, le travail de relecture pour améliorer mon texte.
Voici ma première correction suite à tes indications :
Kittens are the BABBY-CAT of a she-cat and lots of he-cats. Kittens CAN NEITHER HEAR NOR SEE, completely DEAF and blind, until they are TEN DAY OLD. So, they move by crawling UP* to their mother’s odour to be fed. Each of them GET A TEAT, and FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED UNTIL the end of their weanings. They already meow and purr before opening their eyes, and hearing the noises around them! Of course, they completely depend on their mother till they are one month old. They had drunk only milk, but begin to taste their mother’s meal.
As they get very SHARPENED NEW teeth and claws, their mother SUFFERS while feeding her kittens. /////The end of the first part.
* I think I'd put a word here to make the sentence clearer...
** the expression is "first come, first served!"
J'ai rajouté up après crawling, dans le sens où ils rampent mais comme ils sont minuscules, la bonne odeur des mamelles de leurs mère est plus haute qu'ils ne le sont. Est-ce cela que tu voulais me faire dire ?
Tend ay old = ten day old !
: Les espaces étaient mal placés, et je n'ai pas vu lors du transfert 
Le fait de s'exposer publiquement fait aussi prendre conscience de ses erreurs, et c'est très formateur. Je confondais death et deaf… deux sons qui pour mes oreilles sont pareils. Maintenant, je ne les confondrais plus, du moins pour leurs sens si ce n'est encore phonétiquement…
Bonjour et merci Swan ! Je demande à travailler, pas à ce qu'on me livre le travail entièrement fait sur un plateau d'argent…
Mon seul but ici est d'améliorer mon expression écrite, j'y travaillerai le temps qu'il faudra.Bonjour Lucile, toujours très attentive, merci !

Hello!
Kittens are the BABBY-CAT (cohérence ? tu commences au pluriel, tu dois continuer au pluriel ...) of a she-cat and lots of he-cats (= tomcats!). Kittens CAN NEITHER HEAR NOR SEE, completely DEAF and blind, until they are TEN DAY (ici, ce n'est pas un adjectif invariable, mais bien un NOM!)OLD. So, they move by crawling UP*(si tu laisses ta phrase telle qu'elle est, il te manque -encore- un participe adjectif ...) to their mother’s odour to be fed. Each of them GET (each= singulier !)

Of course, they completely depend on their mother till they are one month old.

Have drunk est un présent qui ressemble beaucoup au passé composé français… de par sa construction : toujours cette mauvaise habitude de penser en français concernant les temps des verbes… : je doute encore de moi… et pour cause, (…) je commence tout juste à comprendre les subtilités, et surtout il me faut oublier de penser en français dans les verbes aussi, puisque pour le reste j'y arrive, sauf avec les adjectifs ou les noms composés où là, ce n'est vraiment pas automatique car je fais toujours des inversions cocasses.

Voici mes modifications et explications pour améliorer ce texte, d'après tes remarques :
Here4u !❤️Là, dans ce paragraphe je reste sur la valeur anglaise de l'animal : it/which (neutre), puisqu'il s'agit des chats adoptés en général, et que je n'ai pas d'attachements particulier à eux, ce qui me permettrait de leur donner la valeur d'un membre familial : she/he/who.

We musn’t abandon an animal because we have got lots of problems in every day life, or because our pet is sick and IT costs a lot of money (ITS VET, ITS GROOMING OR ITS CATSITTER FOR SOME OF THEM), or ITS HAIR EVERYWHERE IN THE HOUSE, or because it’s time to go on holiday, or FOR ANY OTHER BAD REASON. The law asks us not to adopt an animal which is younger than two months old… According to LAW, in France, we can't entrust ANYBODY a so young animal which needs ITS mother till IT gets at least three months old./////The end of the third part.
C'est ma chatte, elle est un des membres de ma famille, je repasse à she/who :
😺 😺
My she-kitten came in my life at five weeks and a half, but had lost her mother when she was only three weeks old! She was very aggressive towards ME for five years : my doctor, my friends, my sisters told me I SHOULD abandon her. I 've never done that!!! My she-cat was in my life, and I had to learn so much about her behaviour. And naturally, I did! I never regretted keeping her near me, although she bit me and VIOLENTLY LACERATED ME because she could neither have self control, nor her outpouring feelings and her anger towards the noisy home in which we were living! Since we have moved, my cat is now fourteen years old, SHE KEEPS HER COOL, MOST OF THE TIME, providing that I also know how to read all her feelings… from her body language!/////The end of the fourth part.
Concernant ma chatte, ils m'ont lourdement forcé la main pour que je l'abandonne… : c'est pour cela que j'avais mis : had to. Un sentiment d'obligation, purement injuste et lâche, véritable crève cœur, une obligation indépendante de ma volonté à laquelle je n'ai bien sûr pas obéi, malgré les pressions répétées sur des années ! Should reste du conseil. Je suis heureuse aujourd'hui d'avoir désobéi, d'avoir vécu ce long chemin avec elle, et ce pour encore, je l'espère, de belles et longues années !
Bonne soirée !
J'avais fait, finalement, beaucoup d'erreurs !
See you soon.

Hello, Dear Here4u!
Thanks, sorry for my too long sentences… which exhausted you!
I WILL (beginner's mistake
!) succeed in writing correct English, won't I ? ❤️ Kittens are not toys. Their needs must be satisfied and they are very sensitive. Adoption is for ever, and people should know it is a constant commitment for the owner. We must abandon an animal NEITHER because we have got lots of problems in everyday life, NOR because our pet is sick and requires a lot of money (its vet, its grooming, or its catsitter for some of them).

I will eventually succeed in writing correct English, won't I ? (eventually = en fin de compte. Sens: Je finirai bien par....
Kittens are not toys. Their needs must be satisfied and they are very sensitive. Adoption is for ever, and people should know it is a constant commitment for the owner. We must (should irait bien aussi) abandon an animal NEITHER because we have got lots of problems in everyday life, NOR because our pet is sick and requires a lot of money (its vet, its grooming, or its catsitter for some of them). OF COURSE, its hair OVERRUNS (bizarrre , ce verbe qui s'applique plutôt à de l'herbe qui pousse partout. everywhere in the house (si vous gardez everywhere, le plus courant est de dire its hair is to be found everywhere in the house. Mais il est courant aussi de prendre comme complément "in the whole house ave cun verbe comme pervade, invade...), SO WHAT ? WE MUST DO WITH THAT PROBLEM (il existe le verbe to cope with a problem) ! WHO WILL COME TO TAKE (l'anglais a tendance à dire come and help me, go and help her) CARE OF HIM DURING OUR VACATION? WHAT ELSE ? PETS ARE ABJECTLY ABANDONNED ALWAYS FOR ANY OTHER BAD REASON (maladroit, j'aurais fait porter always sur le verbe et terminé par for some bad reason or other. Any prête à confusion). The law asks us not to adopt an animal which is younger than (less than) two months old… According to the law, in France, we can't leave (plutôt confier que laisser qui a un peu le sens d'abandonner) an animal so young(ne se dit pas trop, l'anglais préfère such a young animal.) with somebody. Kittens need their mothers till they are at least three months old.
My she-kitten came into my life at(on voit plus souvent "aged") five weeks and a half, but had lost her mother when she was only three weeks old! She was very aggressive towards me for five years. MY doctor, my friends, my sisters told me I should abandon her. I refused to do so!!! My she-cat was in my life, and I had to learn about her behaviour… Naturally, I did (on dira plutôt and that's what I did)! I never regretted keeping her near me, although she bit me and lacerated me. She LEAPT ON ME (c'est vraiment le verbe sauter au sens sportif, pas agressif, je verrais plutôt she would set on me au sens de se jeter sur quelqu'un), violently with her claws, over and over, heavily clinging to my arm. She went at me fiercely: four small kilos of FURIOUS muscles, WITH both an impressive strength and a determination to make me pay for her(non impossible puisque c'est défini ensuite par une relative. Remplacer par the) pain she had felt. WHY DID SHE HAVE HER(en trop) EXCESSIVE ENERGY AND FELT(si did she est en dénominateur commun, alors, ce felt est faux) SO BAD? She could NOT have self control BECAUSE SHE HADN'T BEEN TAUGHT how to do so! KITTENS'MOTHERS TEACH THEM ABOUT EVERYTHING: NOT HERS (Hers didn't serait plus courant): SHE COULDN'T… I HAD TO TEACH HER HOW TO DRINK, TO EAT, TO WASH HER FACE, TO USE HER LITTER, … , SO THAT SHE NO LONGER FEAR (prétérit) THE MIRRORS, HER SHADOW…, AS IF I WERE A CAT. HOWEVER SHE WAS ALWAYS ANGRY AT(ou because of) THAT NOISY APARTMENT in which we were living! Then, THREE YEARS AGO, WE FINALLY MOVED into a quieter flat with its small private garden. OVER THE YEARS, THAT RUBBISH TIP HAD (had ou has ?) BECOME an earthly paradise. Henceforth(signifie from now on, à partir de maintenant, alors que j'ai l'impression qu'il faudrait dire from then on, point de départ dans le passé avec un verbe au prétérit.),(ou alors, on part de eversince, depuis lors et on met du present perfect sur keep) my FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD cat keeps her cool, most of the time, providing that I also know how to read all her feelings… from her body language! 😺
