My tescher gave me this 200 word essay on this topic but I'm having trouble with some of the prompt.Here it is: Comment faites-vous les courses? Decrivez vos habitudes:dans quels supermarches aimez-vous allez? Dans quels rayons trouvez-vous les choses que vous aimez? Qu'est-ce que vous achetez et poerquoi? Est-ce que vos habitudes sont en train de changer?

I think it says - How do you shop? Write your habits: In what supermarket do you like to go? What department do you find products you like? What do you buy and why? Have your habits changed over time?
Can anyone tell me if this is right because it seems a silly essay topic to me?!

yes, your translation is correct.

Thank you I just thnk is a weird prompt to be writing a 200 word essay about.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Be sure you correct the spelling, adding accents where they belong. The translation is very close. "How do you go shopping? Describe your habits: in which supermarkets do you like to go? In which departments do you find the things that you like? What do you buy and why (check spelling = pourquoi)? Are your habits /customs in the process of changing?"

Yes, your translation is correct. The prompt is asking you to write a 200-word essay about your shopping habits. It wants you to describe how you do your shopping, what supermarkets you like to go to, which departments you find the things you like in, what you buy and why you buy them, and whether your habits have changed over time.

To answer the question, you can start by describing how you typically do your shopping. Do you go to a physical store or shop online? Do you make a list before going shopping or do you decide what to buy when you get to the store?

Next, discuss your preferred supermarkets. Do you have a specific supermarket you like to go to? Why do you choose that supermarket over others? Is it because of the prices, the selection of products, or the location?

Then, talk about the different departments in the supermarket where you find the things you like. Is there a specific aisle or section that you always visit? Why do you like those particular products?

After that, explain what you buy and why you buy them. Do you have any specific preferences or dietary restrictions that influence your purchasing decisions? Do you prioritize buying certain types of products, such as organic or locally sourced items, for specific reasons?

Lastly, discuss whether your shopping habits have changed over time. Have you started using online grocery delivery services more frequently? Have you shifted from buying certain products to others due to changes in your lifestyle or preferences?

Remember to expand on each point and provide specific examples to support your answers. Good luck with your essay!
