french translation please-rest. reservation at Brasserie Balzar
I just received what I think is an affirmative response to my online request for a reservation. It says " votre reservation est faite merci'
When I went to an online dict. 'faite' comes out as rooftop or summit? I'm assuming it somehow works in this context but couldn't find a place to punch in a phrase or sentence. Frankophiles please advise!! thanks, lynda |
Your reservation is made, thank you. ;)

faite comes from the verb "faire" to do. Il est fait, elle est faite.(réservation is feminine)
I think they made it simple for you to understand. :-) |
It's not alway recommended (as it gives funny results) but for once you could have tried the following translation site.
http://babelfish.altavista.com/ It translates the restaurant's reply to "Your reservation is made, thank you." as Mclaurie wrote above. I was rahter curious about " 'faite' comes out as rooftop or summit". How did you get that translation ? I wondered so I looked into my dictionary BOOK. Ah-ha ! I did not know the word but that's 'faîte' with circonflex ^ on i that means "top". |
thanks for the confirmation of what I thought must be a positive response.
2 different sites gave me the summit/rooftop translation. my email didn't have any ^ on the word either. thanks again, lynda |
