Bonjour à tous,
Il y a quelqu'un qui peut m'aider avec cette question? La question , "Is it possible to make this arrangement?" Comment on dit on français? Merci en d'avance.

I would use the following:
Pourrait-on faire cet arrangement ?
I tend to steer clear of starting a sentence with "Is it possible.....?",
in favour of "Could one....?"
Thank you James, but the word 'arrangement' is that a good choice of word in this sentence? I couldn't find another word and also not sure which or what word should be used for arrangement. Hope you don't misunderstand not that I am trying to find fault with your choice of word.
I need to use this sentence when I meet the french man and ask him this question regarding the contract for work arrangement.
Now that I know your need of this sentence, I understand the context.
Neil has several words listed in the French Dictionary under the English arrangement:
disposition, accord, etc. But, the French arrangement has a context of "mutual agreement",
which I assume you intend.
Alternatively, accord has the meanings "agreement, understanding".
I think that accord is the one best translation here.
The sentence becomes "Peut-on passer cet accord?"
Thanks Erwan.
"Je vous salue" for your better knowledge.
I was merely being polite with my "Pourrait-on...."
