Bonjour Peter, Jeff, Patricia, Nancy, Julie et Mary.


Merci pour vos messages !

You are totally right, "chercher" means "to look for". "Penser" means "to think".


We will correct it ASAP!


Bonne journée et à bientôt !

Surely, 'regarder' is better translated as 'to look at' rather than 'to see'. Tourists do not see a sunset; they look at the sunset.

What is the difference between chercher and penser? Like Mary I thought chercher was to seek/look for. Also like

christof transformer and devenir, I had transformer as change into and devenir as to become.

Je pense qu’il y a un erreur—“chercher” veut dire “look for” en place de “think.” Le verbe “penser” veut dire “think.”
