entrainer → entraîner
connaitre → connaître
illimitees → illimitées

Contractions - Mandatory

These are not optional in French:

WRONG → CORRECT
de le → du
de les → des
à le → au
à les → aux
je ai → j'ai
le arbre → l'arbre
si il → s'il

Tone & Register

Informal "tu" for player/user-facing messages (not "vous") -- these apps are for friends
Keep messages concise like the English version -- don't over-translate
Match the energy of the English -- if it's casual, keep it casual in French

UI Label Patterns

Common patterns that come up in app UIs:

English → French
Log in → Connexion
Log out → Déconnexion
Cancel → Annuler
Back → Retour
Create → Créer
Submit → Soumettre / Envoyer
Search → Rechercher
Settings → Paramètres
Delete → Supprimer
Confirm → Confirmer
Edit → Éditer
Done → Terminé
Save → Enregistrer
Copy → Copier

Gaming Terms - Keep in English

These stay English even in French text:

headshot, kill, spawn, respawn
CT, T (team names)
bot, mod, plugin
FFA, competitive, casual
Workshop (Steam Workshop)
lineup, crosshair, one-way, wallbang, boost
setpos, any console commands

Gaming Terms - Translate

English → French
tip → astuce
weapons → armes
ammo/ammunition → munitions
map → map (or carte depending on context)
difficulty → difficulté
commands → commandes
available → disponible(s)
practice → s'entraîner (verb) / entraînement (noun)
study/review → réviser

Before Saving

Always verify:

All accents present (é, è, ê, î, à, ç, ô)
Mandatory contractions applied (du, des, au, aux, l', s', j')
Past participles end in -é not -e
Informal "tu" form used (not "vous")
No untranslated English words that should be French
No over-translation of terms that should stay English (gaming jargon, technical terms)
