@TuxCopter ono. How to fix?
 
@Downgoat i don't even understand what it should mean
 
"This is the audio of him saying the thing"
 
@Downgoat when did raconter mean say...
 
@Downgoat "C'est l'audio de lui dire la chose"?
from google translate
 
5:27 PM
._. Doesn't it mean narrate
 
@Downgoat when did narrate mean say
 
or is french teacher trying to get us killed when we go to France
9
 
@Downgoat likely
 
@LeakyNun well french teacher say it means like to tell a story
 
@Downgoat typing on mobile I take it
 
5:28 PM
@Downgoat when did tell a story mean say
what is "the thing"?
 
say != tell
tell = to say something directed at a person
 
It is not transliteration....
 
@Downgoat could you give us the context of your sentence, i.e. what "the thing" is?
 
The thing is a story
@Riker can't be right. If lui is the object or subject neither case you would use infinitive AFAIK
 
5:32 PM
@Downgoat you meant the infinitive
@Downgoat then why don't you say "the story" instead of "the thing"?
 
@LeakyNun oops thanks
@LeakyNun idk just trying to make more generic
 
c'est l'audio de lui où il raconte l'histoire
 
Yeah but not golfy enough il is repeated twice
i suppose I could remove de lui
 
sure
 
C'est l'audio où il raconte l'histoire is fine
