Help Ryan Learn French!

I'm sure you guys are getting annoyed that I've been here for over a year and don't speak very good french. So to help remedy that, I'm asking you guys to post words or phrases that I should know or pronunciations I've fucked up.

I'll also be posting guesses as to things I should know and you can tell me if it's right or not.

I guess I'll start with Magic related french, tell me what's wrong with the following:

Phases / Phases
Untap / Degagez
Upkeep / Entretien
Draw / Pichet
Precombat Main / Premier Main
Beginning of Combat / Debut de Combat
Declare Attackers / Declaration de Attaque
Declare Blockers / Declaration de Bloque
Combat Damage / Combat Damage
End of Combat / Fin de Combat
Postcombat Main / Douseme Main
Cleanup / Nettoyage
End of Turn / Fin de Tour

Phases / Phases
Untap / Dégager
Upkeep / Entretien
Draw / Piocher
Precombat Main / Première phase (principale)
Beginning of Combat / Début du Combat
Declare Attackers / Déclaration d'attaque (ou "d'une attaque")
Declare Blockers / Déclaration des Bloqueurs

Resolve damage / résolution des dommages ("on résout les dommages ?")
End of Combat / Fin du Combat
Postcombat Main / Deuxième/Seconde phase (principale)

C'est notre plaisir que de transmettre la connaissance de notre chère langue française.

Bier/biere
Blunt/joint
shot/shot
slut/salope
bitch/pute
shag/baiser

anything else?

So if I there are options for something I don't care about/don't understand, I can say "peu importe" or "com te vous (spelling?)"

Do they directly translate to "whatever" and "as you want" or is there more to it?

Also you guys are all super-good at english but if you have any questions you should ask in this thread.

"Peu importe" is indeed "whatever" but it is a bit more formal. French people would rather say "je m'en fiche" or "je m'en fous" (both quite casual), which means "I don't care".
You would translate directly "as you want" as "comme tu veux"

And the top 3 :

Your daddy = TON PÈRE !!!

..

STFU = TG ! (for Ta Gueule)

Only 2 Wirewood Hivemaster = Seulement 2 MAÎTRE ruchier de Brinbois ^^



el maestro

rémy tu m as squizzer ma partie la...

Oh putain ! J'avais même pas remarqué que c'était Rémy qu'il l'avait écrite tellement ça te ressemblait Jean.

En même temps, je me demande comment Rémy connaît le mot "shag", c'est super british. Ryan le comprendrait, mais ne l'utilise pas.

A couple more not immediately obvious or easy:

The Common Cold (comme ça la malade)

To Root for or cheer for a team

Merci

Just say "cold" for common cold : rhume

root = soutenir ("supporter" is false) une équipe

cheer = encourager une équipe

for the english word "so" when do you use "si" and when do you use "ainsi" and are there other words for it I should know?

Examples:
I am so hot for Jean
I'm an american, so the girl was not interested in me
So what's going on tonight?

I guess the second one is the one I care about most, the <condition>, so <result> that I use quite often.

You can translate "so" by "alors".

Je suis un américain, alors la fille n'était pas intéressée par moi.

Actually, in the you're are american so obv the girl won't even look at you, the word would rather be "donc" i think, even if alors would works too.
But for 3rd one, alors is correct

wait, fille means both wire and girl/lady?

Thanks for the alors and donc. So "si" is not correct at all then?

Fille, with 2 "L" is girl
File, with 1 "L" is wire.

Alors=so, most of the time.
i think one of the most seen use for "donc" is as it stands for a reason, like when you use therefore, etc.

This actually has nothing to do with me learning french, but I'm looking to dye my hair blue again for the Lake Parade. Does anyone know of a place that sells hair dyes (moreso unnatural ones). I've found them before in like Raver or Punk supply stores, so if you know any of those it might help.

Hum don't know where you find this, but there's a punk store near the cornavin train station:
http://www.antishop.ch/

but it's expensive! just go to manor/globus, you'll find all you need, and I'll have pink hair!

What's the correct way of saying "I'm fine" or "I'm good"? Like in the context of someone offers you a bag but you don't need it.

I've been saying "je bon" which people understand, but I don't know if that's right.

Non merci, as no thx
Non c'est tout bon, no it's allright
je n'en ai pas besoin (j'en ai pas besoin), i dont need it

So if I want to indicate to a coiffeur that I wear my hair up, what would I say?

je veux avoir les cheveux en l'air

How do you express doubt in your own statement?

Examples in English:
I might be able to make it
That will work, I guess

Merci
