Nov 29, 2021 at 14:17 comment added Peter Shor Google translate turns I had spoken with my sister into j'avais parlé avec ma soeur, but translating back you get I spoke with my sister. This makes some kind of sense, because there are lots of times times when you would use the simple past in English and the plus-que-parfait in French, but I can't think of any where it would be the other way around.

May 19, 2019 at 21:04 comment added user19187 Forget translation engines. See Language Learning for some insight. Otherwise use dictionaries etc. For instance notice that when searching for a word in Wiktionary, you will notice on the bottom left-hand side a list of other languages which should provide an equivalent to what you were searching, in English for instance. Consider also Larousse. Challenge yourself here. Good luck.
