    Hey guys!
    Ok well I really need some help with a college assignment for my French Class at the moment. French is by far not my strongest subject but is unfortunately a compulsory part of my course. Basically I need to write a reply to this following query and I am totally lost as to where to even start as the content is far beyond my current vocabulary and translation websites have been of no help whatsoever to me. I know I am asking an awful lot but i would greatly appreciate somebodys help with answering this for me.
    Thanks for even taking the time for reading this and sorry for rambling a bit.

    Monsieur, Madame,
    Je vous serais reconnaissant de bien vouloir indiquer si vous avez de la disponibilité pour 13 chambres twins pour la période du 21/06 au 23/06 prochains en B/B.
    Comme il s'agit d'une réunion d'affaires, j'aimerais réserver une salle de réunion pour 40 personnes environ pour le 22 juin. Pouvez vous indiquer le prix de la salle de séminaire pour la journée et l'équipement de la salle. Est-ce que le prix des sessions café/the/canapés est inclus dans la location de la salle de réunion?
    Nous désirons aussi organiser un diner pour 50 personnes le 22 juin et j'aimerais consulter vos menus et la carte des vins.
    Dans l'attente de votre réponse.
    Salutations.

    it basically says:

    "could you please let me know if you have 13 twin rooms available for the period...on a B&B basis.
    as this is a business meeting, i'd like to book a meeting room for roughly 40 people for the 22nd. could you let me know the cost of the room hire for the day and what equipment is it set up with. are coffee breaks/canapes included in the price?
    we'd also like to organise dinner for the 22nd for around 50 people so could you please provide me with your menus and wine list.

    i look forward to hearing from you"

    actually the french query is pretty poor quality too.

    if you want, write the reply you'd like to give in english, then attempt to translate it and we'll fix it for ya

    True, but you don't wonna go saying to your teacher now :p

    +1 on the translation help here, but, you need to learn ;) so do it yourself first and we'll come back to you with suggestions and corrections!

    Basicly, you need to reply to the query and i would make sure these things are in there: availibility, price, a thank you for enquiring, "do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further information."

    Good luck!

    Thanks again x
