I'm working on some logic related to recognizing certain phrases or translations. I've tried both the Google and Microsoft translators, but question the results. Is there a corresponding word in French for trip? The translators keep giving me "voyage" even when I use it in context. My circuit breaker is tripping off... it is not going on a Caribbean cruise. :mad:
In French : trip = voyage In the context of your sentence : is tripping off = saute (Mon disjoncteur saute…)

Dejoncteur is the trip switch, so....
we say in french 'disjoncteur' means electrical switch or the state you are when you brake neural circuit in your brain or getting crazy 'je disjoncte'

Would "déclencher" work? (trigger, start, set off)

Nowadays more and more french persons are using trip for trip ... just because the equivalent word is missing in french. Especialy if you are trying to translate something like the Jack's Kerouac road trip or 'las vegas parano' trip with jim carrey. trip sounds like going in a way of adventure and 'sortie' is more quiet... You may not be able to translate that word into a single french one, you need several french words to mean 'trip' like : "partir à l'aventure". That way you more close to J kerouac or jim Carrey trip, but in the quiet case "sortie" is fine. ;)

Sauter You are not translating "(to) trip" but "(to) trip off" Verbs made of two separate words are not a feature of the French language. Goggle does not handle this very well. English: my circuit breaker has tripped off. French: mon coupe circuit a sauté. (jumped !) English: my circuit breaker is tripping off. French: mon coupe circuit saute for ganja related tripping we use "trip" in French

"tripping off" meant like "triggering"?
Disconnected is "debranche" (that e at the end is e acute)

To trip, as in fall over, is trebucher (like the catapult), but I would use debrancher, which is to disconnect or unplug.

Mon disjoncteur est déclencher
My circuit breaker is tripping
déclencher has the meaning of "trip" or "trigger"

In Québec we would say something like: "Le breaker a sauté" also "Le disjoncteur a sauté" is good. Hope it helps.

Hi there from the Province of Québec. Trip translates to voyage. Now for your last sentence: Mon disjoncteur se déclenche... il ne va pas en croisière aux Caraïbes. Bonne journée :)

So weird: In google search, I write "translate My circuit breaker is tripping off in french" And I get: "Mon disjoncteur se déclenche" Which for me, being french, looks perfect. In fact, I think that "to trip off" could be translated in 'Disjoncter'. In French, you should not say "Mon disjoncteur disjoncte", this is not beautiful... So, google's right. Hoping that my 2 cents helps... Christian

How about using the word Trigger which in French is Gâchette. To trip a switch would be to also trigger it.

A circuit breaker is a coupe-circuit (masculine: (the) le coupe-circuit, (a) un coupe-circuit, (my) mon coupe-circuit... In context, to trip is déclencher (verb) déclenchement (noun) My circuit breaker is tripping off, mon coupe-circuit se déclenche. In French, you cannot abbreviate "coupe" the way you could "breaker" in English. Hope this helps

I aggree. I think "déclencher" is the good word for a circuit breaker. "Disjoncter" could do the work too but it is related too overvoltage or over-intensity.
But what else than overvoltage or overintensity could trigger a circuit breaker to trip off? I think "disjoncter" is the perfect word. At least it is the one I would use, and any french people would understand it perfectly.
