Ellen in French :(

[FAFA]

I am french and I'm sorry my english is not marvellous. I am writing you cause in france we can't find ELLEN in DVD. I've just found it on Amazonbut only in english and above all in Zone 1 (my DVDs are Zone 2). Does somebody know if there is a hope to have ELLEN translated in French?? I am really fan and deceived 'cause i can't watch my favorite serie and actress.

[bozo]

Salut Fafa,
I'm not alone anymore, thank god! ;)
Ellen is not translated in french, but if you have a dvd player on your computer, you can download the software "dvd player free", it's really easy...and magic... ;)
I have region 1 dvds, and it works perfectly... :)

[FAFA]

thank you from your answer. where are you from? on gagnerait de l'énergie à se parler français non? Anyway, my english is not good enough to be able to look at an english program and I konw people who don't speak english at all so without french subtitles it's not good.

[westie_france]

Bonjour ! I am so glad to find at last someone in France who's an Ellen fan ! nobody seems to know her here :( yes, I agree with bozo that dvd is the best option

[Marie-Pier]

can i join, in from québec in canada? :oops: i would also love ellen in french! i have all the dvd available and i would love if they couldve been translated!

[bozo]

On peut dire que c'est Ellen qui m'a en partie appris l'anglais! J'avais un niveau pourri avant de regarder sa série...et maintenant je me débrouille plutöt pas mal :) Je peux même suivre sans gros problème son talkshow!

And imagine Ellen with a french voice...it would be weird! ;)

Yeah, you're right Westie, almost nobody knows her here, but it's a really good way to find out if a girl is gay ;), you just have to say something funny, and you say "I know a great american comedian, Ellen DeGeneres...do you know her?" If she says yes...you can offer her a drink ;)

PS : I'm near Paris :)

[FAFA]

bozo, you've found a funy way to find someone. And perhaps in the world there's one woman who is not gay and like Ellen... not sure but perhaps ;).
Toutes les saisons ne sont pas encore dispos en anglais?

[westie_france]

come on girls, it's much better hearing Ellen in her own voice, it would be strange to hear her speaking in French !!!

Oui, je suis d'accord pour le "gay" test.

PS: je suis près de Paris également.........

[bozo]

Il n'y a que les saisons 1 et 2 qui sont sorties en DVD je crois bien...but you can find eps to download here, in the topic "ellen of the day"...

The "gay" test always worked for me :cool:

Hey Westie, where are you near Paris?

[westie_france]

je suis en banlieue parisienne (Chelles je ne sais pas si tu connais) mais je travaille à la Defense, et toi ? et FAFA ?

[FAFA]

peso je ne connais pas du ctout chelles, c'est de quel côté (je suis anti région parisienne alors j'y connais rien). moi je suis au coeur de la douceur angevine....... à 20 bornes au dessus d'angers

[bozo]

I don't know Chelles...neither Angers, but got friends from there...and so I know the "blue chocolates" (I do my best for the translation... :? )...weird but good... ;)
I live near La Defense...You work in the shopping centre or in a tower?

Hey, we are at least 4 or 5 french speaking...soon we'll be more numerous than the english speaking ! ;)

[Just_Dance_Ellen]

oh i'm learning francais!

i cant get the accents working..aha

i'm in french 5/6 honors @ my school. perhaps i can speak some french here to practice.

y a-t-il seulement 5 de nous qui parle le francais ici?

uhh..prob wrong grammar :P

[bozo]

Well...you speak better french than me! :-D
"y a-t-il seulement 5 d'entre nous qui parlent le francais ici?"...but it's really good...since how long are you learning?
Let's make a deal : je te corrige tes fautes et tu corriges les miennes :)
I know for sure that we are at least five, six with you...I think we are a lot more but they're too shy to show up! :-P

[westie_france]

I work in one of the many towers (cote courbevoie plutot). Are u still in school or are you working as well ? I know Anger but never been there...

It will be cool to have a French site for Ellen (like for the L Word) but I very much that we will ever beat the english-speaking population....

[bozo]

Marrant, j'ai grandi à Courbevoie...the world is small...
J'ai arrêté mes études l'année dernière pour faire un stage d'un an, et maintenant j'ai repris la fac...et dans quelques mois je repars faire un stage...ahhh les stagiaires!
Can u imagine a french ellen forum! lol! with...5 members?! :lol: would be funny!

[Marie-Pier]

hhmm... .nooooo ! There is much more than 5 french people here that's for sure! Nous envahissons le monde!!! mhahahaha lol

[Jamie69]

Et puis moi je suis la 'tit Belge du service et savez que ici en Belgique (apart region Flamand, et même là) ils ya peu de monde qui la connaisent.

Gros Bisous mouillés
Jamie

[bozo]

Hi Jamie!

Another french one!!!! We are really gonna do a french forum! lol
"Gros bisous mouillés"! :lol: I like that! Big french kiss for you gir! 8)

[tedsmaniac]

ellen rejoint tous le monde meme la francophonie mondiale , ici au quebec c`est normal etant donne que nous sommes envahies par la culture americaine mais je ne pensais pas que nos cousinnes du vieux continent connaissaient la plus belle et la plus drole femme d`hollywood.
marie

[bozo]

Well I try to stay "in" y'know... 8)
How I heard about Ellen...that's a long story, believe me...but you're right, no one knows her here, that's why she's a good "gay test" lol :-D

[PLANTERS]

HEY CAN I JOIN - I HAVE MANY AUNTS, UNCLES AND COUSINS IN PARIS.
BUT I DON'T SPEAK FRENCH, THAT COULD BE A PROBLEM.

[tedsmaniac]

hey bozo ,have you ever tried putting rita mae brown in a conversation.she an american gay author .if you ever need a backup test.i don`t know if you read english but her book :ruby fruit jungle is a classic.
marie

[bozo]

Treiner, you don't need to yell...I can hear you, even if I'm far away from you! :P
Of course you can join the french club...you'll be in charge of the translation! lol

Hi Teds, I don't know Rita Mae Brown but I'll definitly buy it...a back up test is always good! you never know, sometimes there's intellectuals... ;)

[tedsmaniac]

i did`nt know one had to be an intellectual to read a book but whatever.the rita mae brown books have probably been translated so the sistas in your neck of the woods maybe aware of who she is(at least the old ones like me ,i guess you have to be at least 35years old and up to know about her).rita has`nt written a novel in long while now.

The same situation.:) there Are the most cash in Russian and all. :(

[radcliffe]

I'm french too... But despite I don't understand very well what Ellen and her guests says, I like to see her... The language seems to me very secondary. What it's important is the feeling and a certain kind of union with her.
Now I watch Ellen on that :
http://www.youtube.com/results?search=DeGeneres
and
http://www.celebritywonder.com/vids/Ellen_DeGeneres/

It's better than nothing, and also for american language.
For Z1, you surely know that you can buy a "lecteur DVD multizone". To find sellers, you just have to ask to Google... I've many DVD Z1 and I've ordered the 4th Season of Ellen on Amazon.com. And for language, just take english lessons... Myself have not the "baccalauréat" and I think that I manage not so bad...
When we love, we can get over impediments... No ?

Bonjour je parle un petit français.. Vous avez besoin d'un joueur de multizone de dvd pour ellen dvd alors vous pouvez les jouer dans n'importe quel region/zone..





j'ai choisi le 10 non towheads religieux avec un qi par-dessus 95

[radcliffe]

Surely DJ...
Below, a site where I've bought 2 "lecteurs multizone" to watch my DVD Z1
http://www.son-video.com/Rayons/HomeCinema/LectDVD/Pioneer_DV393.html

I've found a "lecteur dvd multizone" at 99 € but if you go in :

http://www.pricerunner.fr/audiovisuel/visuel/lecteurs-dvd/parcourir?a_1393=1

you'll have many other choices.

And for the language, I repeat you that you have to train yourself to speak american, even with dvd 2 but in original version...

:)

[dj007]

je consens radcliffe

c'est dur à traduire beaucoup du discours américain dans français si vous ne lui êtes pas utilisé... Mais bon voir que ellen est partout aimé dans le monde...

mon français est très mauvais... désolé

[radcliffe]

To DJ
I can correct you if you want... And that the result of it :

"Je suis d'accord avec toi Rad... C'est difficile de traduire le language (ou discours) américain en français si vous ne l'utilisez pas souvent. Mais cela prouve qu'Ellen est aimée partout dans le monde".

You see, DJ, your french isn't so bad.

Yes, Ellen is loved however and maybe in China... She as the talent to reunite people from many countries and different continents and maybe to help them to change of lives. Stars help people to meet each other and sometimes to love.

[inamoramento]

Salut les gens!! hello!!dziendobre! I'm french-polish I live near Paris ..c 'est simpa de voir qu'il y a des francophones ici!!I LUV AMERICA!!

[jordz_ellenlover58]

oh. ha :)

....had to do that.
i feel special now though :)

[radcliffe]

Franchement inamoramento, je n'ai pas fait exprès de naître en France...

Frankly, Inamoramento, I'm not born voluntary in France...

[inamoramento]

Moi nn plus :?

[2bisexual2curious]

I read that all Frenchmen cheat on their wives. If that's true, i don't think ellen should endorse their language.

[radcliffe]

I read that all Frenchmen cheat on their wives. If that's true, i don't think ellen should endorse their language.

Almost of them... Not them all... And the rest beat their wives...

[prinze]

Hi everybody :)
I'm also a french fan of Ellen. She makes me laugh since 1998 when I discovered "Ellen" sitcom.
I'm glad to see this great community and other french fans. :cool:
