How do you say"I visited Hawaii for the first time"

J'ai visite...then what?

Wait, let me expand a little bit.

I visited Hawaii for the first time during my holidays.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum.

J'ai visité l'île Hawaii pour la première fois pendant mes vacances.

Why is it "l'île Hawaii" when yvonne wanted to know about Hawaii? Besides -- isn't Hawaii made up of many islands?

True = it's l'île Hawaii OR les îles Hawaii, depending upon whether you are speaking of the ONE island, Hawaii, or the group of islands, Hawaii being one of them.

Mme

I don't think i can read the accents, it comes out as funny symbols.

P.S. As for the state of Hawaii, you will see "Hawaï" (Je vais à Hawaï.)

As for accents, we can send you the chart if you let us know if you have MAC (easy) or PC (more difficult), Windows or not.

Mme

you mean it is "J'ai visit(e accent aigu) a (a accent grave) Hawai(i trema).

You use a(a accent grave) infront of Hawaii?

only if y ou are going to Hawaï do you need the à.

Mme

P.S. J'ai visité Hawaï BUT Je vais à Hawaï. *in case the post before this one was not absolutely clear.

To say "I visited Hawaii for the first time" in French, you can say "J'ai visité Hawaï pour la première fois." Here's how you can break it down:

1. Start with the subject pronoun "I," which is "Je" in French.
2. Use the past tense form of the verb "to visit," which is "visiter" in French. In this case, it should be "ai visité" to match with the subject pronoun.
3. Add the name of the place, which is "Hawaii" in this case. In French, it is spelled "Hawaï."
4. Include the phrase "for the first time," which translates to "pour la première fois" in French.

So, altogether it is "J'ai visité Hawaï pour la première fois."
