i’m doing a french oral on thursday and i need to have this memorized. however, i don’t trust Babel Fish or FreeTranslation or other translation sites, so i’m wondering if anybody who is fluent or at least has a good knowledge of the french language can help me translate this passage from English. Thank you very much!
Good morning, today I would like to talk about the role of wine in French culture. First, there are many reasons why French wine is considered to be among the most excellent wines throughout the entire world. France has been producing wine through its entire history, and has developed techniques and dedicated such a great amount of time to find fertile spots, which produce many different wines of a quality that could never be equaled at other places of the globe.
Wine is part of the French culture and France cuisine would not be the same without this beverage. Drinking wine with meals is a common French tradition and it is possible to see families enjoying their dinners accompanied by a glass of wine at most French regions. Tourists who visit France and look for experiencing the French culture and traditions in the most authentic way should enjoying a French meal accompanied by a French wine. A good combination of a French wine with a typical dish can be a great and unique experience, which visitors should not miss.
French wine originated in the 6th century BCE, with the colonization of Southern Gaul by Greek settlers. There are about 365 different types of French wine from different origins. This shows the strong bond between French culture and wine, and the large amount of work, experience, and time employed in order to produce this beverage.
Starting from the main varieties of red wine, rose wine, white wine, and sparkling, a broad range of subcategories and different wines can be found in the French production.
Wine has been produced in France for more than two and one-half millennia and has played a large role in French culture, economy and dietary habits for centuries. Some two million French owe their livelihood directly to the vine. The international role and influence of the French in the ways of wine remain preeminent. Wine has long been a beverage of choice at mealtime, as demonstrated by annual per capita wine consumption, which peaked at 140 liters a year in the early 1950’s.
However, Wine culture in France has changed. The French drink less wine, but wine of better quality. The future undoubtedly will be marked by fewer bottles of common wine and by larger amounts of premium wines, which is a desirable situation for the wine consumer, but unpleasant for many growers accustomed to extract as much tonnage as possible from bountiful, ordinary wines.
As well, Europe is producing more wine than people want to drink. Most Europeans are drinking less wine, and those that aren’t – like the British, Irish and Swedes – are turning to the New World. So the EU spends half a billion euros every year turning wine we don’t buy into spirit that’s not needed, so that the vineyard owners can make a living.
In conclusion, wine has a great impact on French culture and history as it has played a big role in the economic and even industrial developments of the country.
