अनुबाद - फ्रान्सेली-अंग्रेजी - Ce qu'on veut trouver n'est jamais comme nous le voulons.

Would you like to correct this French original, Franck?


CC: Francky5591

The french original text is not very clear. I think the person who has written this text doesn't know french very well and maybe the true meaning of the sentence is something like "What we find, is never what we are looking for".
But I'm not sure... let's wait for Francky's opinion.
Nevertheless, your translation is the exact meaning of the french text.

Yes, it could be what you said, JP, but it isn't actually that obvious to guess what the requester heard or read, so that Ian's version is closer, because of the first part of the sentence, which says "ce qu'on veut trouver..."
Angelisi, where did you get this text from, did you hear it or did you read it somewhere?

Thanks for the help,I recieved that frase in a mail, first I was not sure about some words; so I try here.
