You have two options depending on context:

1) If it's a quick exchange and can be figured out in context, put the foreign language in italics.

"As-tu le livre?"

"Yes, I have the book here."

or inline:

"You filthy p'taQ!" B'Elanna snarled.

2) If it's a quick exchange without context, put the translation afterwards and italicize that.

"Pour ma peine, ma punition, je tourne en rond," he sighed. For my pain, for my punishment, I pace in circles. Now Picard understood.

inline:

"Qa'pla!" Successs! the Klingon shouted.

In any case, I would not have more than one or two exchanges in a foreign language. Either use a tag like "she said in French" so the reader realizes the characters aren't speaking English, or note in narration "they discussed the matter in French for some time, but as Malcolm didn't speak the language, he had to wait for a translation."

I believe it is B isn't, because if you use the others it most likely sounds like slang.

WHATS THE ANSWER
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

To deceive Ophelia into thinking that he is no longer in love with him.

Explanation:

In Hamlet Act II, Scene 1, Ophelia describes Hamlet's appearance as disheveled and mad because that is what Hamlet intended to make Ophelia see of him. He wanted to deceive Ophelia into thinking that he is no longer in love with him.

Hamlet knew that Claudius and Polonius were watching and listening to thier conversation, so he purposefully deceived Ophelia by telling her that he never loved her to confuse Claudius and Polonius.
