How do you say in french you like country and western fiddle music?
Discussion on TranslationsThere are two issues with translating this.Firstly, there is no proper French term for "fiddle". French-speakers typically use the word "violon" which is "violin" to refer to the instrument, but the way a fiddle is played and used is very different from the classical violin styles of play. So, it is your prerogative if you wish to use the "violin" piece, which will be italicized in the following translations.Secondly, it is unclear from the question if you wish for the translation to operate on the words "I like country music and western fiddle music." or "You like country music and western fiddle music." If it is the second, it is unclear if the "you" is single or plural, informal or formal. There are two ways to say "you" in french.Translations:I like country music and western fiddle music. = J'aime la musique country et la musique Western du violon.You (informal singular) like country music and western fiddle music. = Tu aimes la musique country et la musique Western du violon.You (formal singular or plural) like country music and western fiddle music. = Vous aimez la musique country et la musique Western du violon.

Explain how western got to be a part of country music?
Along with country music, you have the territory of land, that is also known as country or countryside (including horses, fields, medows. and farms). Beginning in the 1930's, cowboy actors and singers began to come on the scene, and alot of the western sound was the same as country. Fiddles, guitars, banjos, harmonicas were some of the major instruments that were used in both country and western music. Then, these cowboy and cowgirl actors began recording country songs as well. Then, the combination known as Country and Western Music was established. Western Music performers such as Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, The Sons of the Pioneers, Tex Ritter, Gene Autry and Patsy Montana were able to bring even more fans into the world of country music. However, by the mid-1960's, the making of cowboy movies had pretty much disappeared. Also, the country radio stations began to cease to play the western music that once was popular. So, the term Country and Western Music, would soon be changed to just Country Music.
