help me! need help with french homework
I'm having a lot of trouble translating the notes for my french project (didn't know the outline had to be in french until today... grrr...). It'll be obvious if I use some free tranlating service. Could someone here who's French (or knows it) translate this? Please don't use lots of advanced stuff (that's another clear indication). Please?

ah, yes it would help if I posted it (hits self on head)

Currently, the main products in Brittany are telecom and satellite technology, and the French government invests very highly of these technologies based in Brittany.
Brittany accounts for 45% of France's government research into telecom
Because Brittany is a peninsula, Brittany boasts the taste of a lot of seafood, especially oysters, crabs, shellfish and lobsters.
The oysters mainly come from the ports of Cancale, Saint-Brieuc, or Morlaix on the channel coast.
Brittany is a major supplier of France’s vegetables and seafood.
Celtic culture heavily influences Brittany’s culture and 1/4 of the people know how to speak Celtic.
Cider is another major product of Brittany, and is used in the majority of the regional cooking recipes in Brittany.
Crepes are a typical Brittany speciality.

I feel kind of stupid doing your homework but french is my first language (I live in Montréal) so what the hell...
Here it goes:

Présentement, les principaux produits en Bretagne sont les technologies de télécommunications et de satellites, et le gouvernement francais investie beacoup dans ces technologies basées en Bretagne.
La Bretagne représente 45% des recherches du gouvernement francais en télécommunication.
Puisque la Bretagne est une péninsule, elle revendique le gout de plusieurs fruits de mer, spécialiement les huitres, crabes, mollusques et homards.
Les huitres viennent principalement des ports de Cancale, Saint-Brieuc, ou Morlaix sur les cotes de La Manche.
La Bretagne est un distributeur majeur de légumes et de fruits de mer en France.
La culture Celte influence grandement la culture de Bretagne et un quart (1/4) de la population sais parler celtique.
Le cidre est un autre produit majeur de Bretagne et est utilisé dans la majorité des recettes de cuisine régionale de Bretagne.
Les crèpes sont une spécialitée typiquement bretonne.

Sorry, I wasn't at my computer at that time. If you need help in French assignments again, don't hesitate to ask for help

(and if you ever go to France, make sure you visit the said cities - there is a terrific yet expansive restaurant in Cancale)

Yep, if I was De Lorimier I would have included some nonsense or profanity in there. It would serve skywalker right for cheating.

It would been fine. I checked it over first (to make sure I understood it all, so my teacher wouldn't think it was way above my level).

If I have to finish up 8 correspondence French modules in a week and a half, everyone else should have to suffer, also!

Some advice, try perfecting English before you move onto French?
