English translation:concierge/porteur
Explanation:
The above are the French translations of the English word porter. However, it looks like you have your language pairs reversed, in which case:
porter - to wear, to carry
jouer - to play
travailler - to work
surfer - to surf
chanter - to sing
detester - to hate
sauter - tojump
chercher - to look for
dessiner - to draw
commander - to order
desirer - to wish
couper - to cut
trouver - to find
collectionner - to collect
visiter - to visit
RECONTER - to tell (a story)
monter - to climb
DÉCLARER - to declare
prier - to pray

It looks like you are studying some regular -er verbs. Perhaps you should think about investing in a good French/English dictionary.
Good luck.
