What is the French translation for " The director sweeps the floor himself" (Not the cleaner, not his employees, not someone else, but the director himself who sweeps the floor)?

Hi Joan,

Moi-même doesn't mean on my own, it just means, myself which is not the same thing 

You would use 'tout seul' for,  on my own -

Je travaille mieux tout (e) seul(e) = I work better on my own 

Je l'ai fabriqué moi-même means you made it yourself, you didn't buy it.

Hope this helps!
